If you would like to schedule a game. Please post in this event thread with the following information:
Name of the game, when you would like to start, The duration of the game, and the number of players it can accommodate.

Due to the overwhelming success of ChewsDay Challenge we might need to limit table space in the early evening if attendance is high and the restaurant is busy. We ask that larger-sized games be planned for 7:30 and later after Boston Pizza's dinner rush when we can spill out into the dining area, if needed, and with the restaurant's permission.  Please be considerate when choosing your table area to maximize player density. Thank you for helping make ChewsDay Challenge a success!

I picked up the new hidden-movement game Specter Ops and am bringing it out on Tuesday. One player is an Agent infiltrating an enemy base, attempting to get some enemy intel and get out in a certain number of turns. The rest of the players are Hunters trying to capture the Agent. Each Hunter is a different character with different powers and there's also a choice of Agent characters with different powers. Add onto that a variety of devices/equipment that the Agent has and it's basically Metal Gear Solid: The Board Game (which I think is great).
Additionally, in a 5-player game one of the Hunters is a traitor, secretly helping the Agent. And that's  the version we're going to play (if we can get 5 players).

This is a teaching game so everyone's welcome to play (since I just got it I'm pretty new to it, too). Playing time is a little open depending on how quickly the agent is caught or not.

[Bricktown]

I'm in like sin.  Nicole... you may not want to sit to my left... it has never been lucky for you.  Either way, I think my guild will take it in the finale.

[NeikeDjour]

It is on like Donkey Kong! On the one hand, I feel like Tyler needs to experience the wrath of your rolls... on the other hand I feel like you are telling me to move to deceive me. You've weighted the dice, haven't you?

[DCStyles]
