I'm trying to get some expansions played from my collection, but these games should be learnable with expansions even if you have not played them before.

I'll start off with two rounds of the Honor & Duty expansion from Flash Point: Fire Rescue, playing each side of the board once (Airplane and Subway Station).

GAME TITLE:  Yunnan (with Tu Di Gong Shrine expansion)
TEACHER: PhotoJim
START TIME:  6:30
DURATION:  120 minutes with teaching
# OF PLAYERS: 5
URL: https://www.boardgamegeek.com/boardgame/143401/yunnan and https://www.boardgamegeek.com/boardgameexpansion/150091/yunnan-tu-di-gong-shrine

This is one of my favourite Euros... no randomness, just strategy.  Great theme, too.

I'll be adding the Tu Di Gong shrine, which is another building that lets you make double progress if you win this as well as another building during the auction phase.  It's been out for a few years but I only got a copy a few weeks ago.

aaron-71, please confirm that you want a spot at the table.

Another one of my favourite games... a classic from 1964.  Super easy to learn, and super fun.

I'm building in a 15-minute cushion in case Yunnan runs long.

GAME TITLE:  Creepy Cousins
TEACHER: Swoop_ds - Dave
START TIME:  8:00
DURATION:  30 minutes ish
# OF PLAYERS: 4
URL: n/a

Please add myself and my friend Jeff to the game.

I'm going to try out a proto-type of a game I'm working on called 'Creepy Cousins'. It's similar in complexity to Love Letter but with a memory element.

The game pits the players (all matriarchs and patriarchs of a small town) against each other to arrange a marriage between two people in the town that are as distantly related as possible. Not an easy task when everyone in town is related! Despite such a 'connected' community, the players will need to go through the family tree to ensure that people are distantly related. The family tree is generated each game, and starts off hidden. Players need to figure out who is in each family and arrange the best marriage that they can!

Sound a little creepy? That's the idea!

I'd love for a couple people to come play and offer feedback, good or bad!
