Well, paying part of the registration fee will help :) OK, here is what happened.
By late decision, I decided to go to AGOS this year. And Friday night, I received Pandemic from Mark Crane to bring to the Con to drop off to MCross, I have no way out of it Saturday morning. Despise printing out the maps and searching on Google map for direction, I still get lost while trying to find the place. I can only blame the instruction of Google map for listing an alternate street name on both places. It took me almost half an hour, before almost giving up, to finally find the club house. The admission fee is kind of expensive, I need to pay $20 (feeling the feeling of paying through the nose), for just a day of gaming... So if the registration price is the same next year, I think I will be passing. The club house is nice, with ample of room and tables to play games. Here is what I have played: 1) Two games of Formula De or Formula D (nice win on my second game), and I have to say, I still love it. Hopefully, there is some local player that will like to play it once in a while... 2) Played a scenario of Lock N Load: Noville -Bastogne's Outpost with Rick Billings. Lock N Load is an interesting system and I think I will try it again. The scenario we play is not too great, but the system have some protential... 3) Try out a demo of Bellicose, table top wargame, Game is like warhammer, but without the expense. It is also faster than warhammer and better rulewise than warhammer. I kind of like it. 4) Played a game of Enemy in Sight with Rick Billings and another player. I kind this game as it is very fun. That end my $20 of my gaming day... Sorry, I have not played new euros, I let my wargame appeite runs wild. BTW, a redeeming factor for the day is I won something (a couple set of wooden animal meeple from Mayday games for my Agricola set) on the game drawing at 9:00pm. Not much, but help offset the expensive entrance fee. --- Ken --- On Sun, Jul 12, 2009 at 5:10 PM, Mark Crane <[email protected]> wrote: > > What, do I have to pay the registration fee before getting the > vicarious thrill of a session report? :) > > On Jul 12, 9:30 am, "M.
