Another evening of gaming

[dagibbs]

Had a small group this time. jagash, _niall, and notsoholygrail initially showed up and we played Dominion then In the Year of the Dragon. We were just starting rules on Tigris & Euphrates when ironphoenix showed up with a strong suggestion for El Grande, which we proceeded to play.

Thank you all.

How did you like In the year of the dragon?

I've played it three times, now. I quite like the avoiding/managing disaster aspects of it, rather than the pure build. The realization that you're going to lose something along the way, and the tough choices as to what. Also, the turn ordering mechanism is quite interesting, and I like how it works.

Overall, I like the game.

Cool.

It falls under the category of 'games we own but have never played'...

(My lack of time and love of collecting things that amuse me is putting lots and lots of games in that category. :-)

Invite me over some time, and I can teach everyone and we can play it. ;)
