Here is my sketchy session report. Please add details as necessary: I showed up around 6pm, and watched a guy set up Axis and Allies Deluxe while another group played Axis and Allies: Minis, Naval edition.
People showed up and played a little Le Passe Trappe but I don't think anyone was overwhelmed by it. Also, I am unbeatable by any living mortal. I also brought Stock Car Championship Racing, but forgot the rules so I left it in the car. Marc Johnston and I conned Jeremy into playing Galaxy Trucker, and right then NatDay showed up and they explained the rules. Marc suggested we skip the basic game (mistake for me, not for Marc) and we were off. I built a crappy ship and died on the first turn. During the second round I had a great ship, and a mediocre ship on the third round. The final score was something like Jeremy: 1 billion vps, and I came in last. It's a really good looking game, feels creative, and I look forward to playing it again. I was ready to take off around 8:45 and attempt to score some wife victory points because I will be at my first conference priesthood meeting with my son (12) tomorrow, but Jeremy brought out Snow Tails and I couldn't resist. We played a simple map, as opposed to the tree- studded nightmare that was brought out last time. I think we finished in 30 minutes. Final score: Jeremy ahead by a billion spaces, and Marc Johnston who was struggling throughout the race STOLE SECOND PLACE FROM ME ON THE LAST TURN WITH TWO FIVE CARDS. Snow Tails is a must buy for me now, a fun racing game with interesting choices that plays in less than an hour. Everyone else played Louis XIV and In The Year of the Dragon--I will let them fill in the vital details. Oh, and I was jealous of Jeremy's Google-android phone, with its GPS- enabled apps. I hid my Ipod Touch in shame. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "utah county boardgamers association" group.
