DURATION: 105 minutes
# OF PLAYERS: 6

Parker, as discussed, a slot is reserved for you (sorry, i don't know your SaskGames nickname).  Please confirm.

Sid Sackson's classic, still a blast to play even though it was released 42 years ago.  Super easy to learn, too.  A stock market game with simulated inside information that's really easy to play.  if you've not tried it, give it a try - you'll probably like it!  If you have played it you're still welcome to join.

GAME TITLE: MEGAcquire
TEACHER: PhotoJim
START TIME: 8:30
DURATION: 150 minutes (conservative estimate)
# OF PLAYERS: 6
URL: https://boardgamegeek.com/boardgame/122346/megacquire

Acquire, with a twist.  Instead of a square grid, this game has a hex grid, and a much larger board with twice as many companies.  If you like Acquire (or are intrigued by it) you should give this one a try too.  Limited edition game, so fairly hard to find.  New players welcome, but I'd recommend you also join into the 6:30 Acquire game.

Apologies - I'm going to cancel Acquire and Megacquire since there hasn't been much take-up yet, and spend the night concentrating on marking the final exams that my students are going to write on Monday.  I'll bring these games back soon.

I've added the cooperative game Space Cadets: Away Missions (https://boardgamegeek.com/boardgame/124827/space-cadets-away-missions) at 6:30.  I'm capping it at 4 players to keep us from getting crowded.  I'll be running scenario #1 of 20 available scenarios.

Sorry, Gloop. I've caught me a pretty good summer cold so will have to cancel Space Cadets.
