  • Meandering the Dune Sea: Risk Legacy: Games 4 & 5

    Ryan, Louis, Joe and Phil came over last night for some more Risk Legacy action.  Joe won the roll to go first, and he took the Enclave of the Bear, denying me my preferred group.  I ended up taking the Saharan Republic and started out in Greenland. I was able...

  • Just glued the pieces for Battles of Westeros. First time I’ve had to assemble pawns for a board game! It better be worth it, because this was tedious. Link to Tentakel Games Original Link http://www.tentakelgames.com/post/22669394917

  • Meandering the Dune Sea: Agricola, again

    Phil left his copy of Agricola here, so Gina and I decided to give it a play tonight.  I started up with the Quarry improvement, which requires 4 occupations before playing, and the tutor occupation that gives bonuses for playing occupations.  So I had a plan to build up a...

  • Meandering the Dune Sea: Weekend Gaming: Agricola

    Joe, Phil and Kevin joined us on Saturday night and brought Agricola with them.  I started the game and the first thing I noticed in my hand was that I had three occupations and two minor improvements that would help in building to stone rooms.  So that was my plan...

  • Meandering the Dune Sea: Weekend Gaming: Puerto Rico

    This weekend we were again staying with my parents, and we met up with Nick and Laura Saturday evening for some drinks and games.  Nick had recently bought Puerto Rico, and I wanted to try it without Joe, since he’s usually the one pushing the game.  It was definitely a...
