For anyone that was attending on the 8th, this will be a shortened version of the game that should only take about 90 minutes; if you weren't there, let me tell you it looked very interesting! I'll let everyone else have a chance to sign up before I throw my hat in. (That and I still have a few new games I want to bring to the table, so we'll see what's up haha.)

So, speaking of new games that I want to try out, I think I'm going to try doing things a little differently this week. Instead of scheduling a game/time, I'm going to throw up a short list of stuff I'd like to bring to the table this week. I really enjoy teaching games, almost as much as playing them, so I'd be happy to teach/play any of the following. Also, if someone knows any of the games, or wants to learn them at the same time as I'm playing another, I am okay with lending one out so long as it's in close-ish proximity to me ;p

This week, I'd be interested in bringing out any of the following:
Tzolk'in
The DC Deck-building Game
Lords of Waterdeep

and of course, my personal favourite, Small World (With expansions if enough people are familiar with the game, or just the base game if the majority are new... I'm happy either way

)

Again, please please feel free to make a request, anyone, I'm more than happy to oblige in any way if it means everyone gets to have fun and new experiences! Also, if you're really brave, you can check out my entire collection on boardgamegeek here ...you just may have to click "Views" then "owned". In any case, good gaming and hope to see lots of people this coming Tuesday!

I have been interested in trying out Lords of Waterdeep if you are planning on bringing it out

Tempest · October 23, 2013, 02:29:06 PM

Sounds good. I can schedule it for 6:30 if that works?

Also, if anyone else wants to do the same thing I did here, just go ahead and put a list of stuff you'd like to play... I can use forum magic to turn them into links and stuff. ;p

craftybernardo · October 23, 2013, 02:49:13 PM

6:30 works for me

NeikeDjour · October 23, 2013, 03:59:09 PM

I can bring and teach WoW Miniatures (4 players, 60 minutes @ 6:30pm). I have 2 boards and enough characters for each, so I can teach 2 games at once if there is enough interest. I'll bring some other games as well, but depending on how many people want to play WoW, we'll see where it goes.

omegadirective · October 23, 2013, 09:45:09 PM

Sign me up for 1830 Railways and Robbers

Tempest · October 23, 2013, 10:24:57 PM

D'oh, every time I host something, I miss out on something neat! I'd definitely like to check out the WoW minis game some time, I just started playing after an 8-month-ish (give or take) hiatus. Please tell me there's Pandaren? I love those guys. In any case, everyone's all set up.

Quote from: Tempest on October 23, 2013, 10:24:57 PMPlease tell me there's Pandaren? I love those guys.

They stopped producing the game back in 2008 after making their first expansion set. It's unfortunate. But due to that, there is little new in terms of the new races and different race/class combos. The only good news I can tell you is that there is one Pandaren - Chen is a playable character. =D

And also due to the game being discontinued and being sold at a fraction of the cost, I have all of the playable figures. So you can at least have a look even if you don't get a chance to play.
