NOTE: We play with a minor house rule that increases value and viability of agenda cards. We felt end game was far too anti-climatic. Felt people should know before they sign up.

Don't think I can do 8:30 for a 2-hour game - I'm trying to be out earlier these days, so I'm scheduling for 6:30. Maybe next week, Matt?

If Rob runs Blood Rage at 8:30 I can run Lewis & Clark at 6:30, I'll send him a message and see what he had in mind.

Post by: silent_rob on January 07, 2016, 01:26:27 PM
Let's try this again (since I was sick the last time I wanted to bring it out) - I'm going to bring the new viking game Blood Rage from super-designer Eric Lang. It's a hybrid between guys-on-a-map-fighting/area control and euro game mechanisms like card drafting. Unlike most games of this genre, you don't just get points for killing your opponents; purposefully having your own vikings and monsters die gloriously in battle is a potentially game-winning strategy.

I've also got the 5-player expansion so we can play with a full 5 players. It's supposed to be around 90min but with 5 players and teaching I'd estimate it'll be around 120min or so.

Here are the those playing, so far:
1. silent_rob
2. Lori
3. R Newell

I'll also bring out the steampunk/role-selection/area control game Mission: Red Planet to start the night. Players are Victorian mining companies with their drills aimed at Mars (hence "steampunk"). You use role selection (a la Libertalia or Citadels) to get your astronauts onto rocketships bound for Mars (hopefully with nobody else sabotaging you in the process). The goal is to try and get the most astronauts in various regions to successfully mine the resources of the planet and its moon Phobos.

It's got a few mechanisms at play but it isn't too bad so everyone's welcome to give it a try. It plays up to 6 and I'm fine with a full game. Games generally take around 90min though it might be a little more with teaching.

Yumi will be stuck at work until later than expected tonight.

Can you remove her from Lewis & Clark?
And that means I won't bring Ruse & Bruise tonight either.
