March 31, 2016 Session Report


Ten attendees this week, including one first-timer (Ken) along with regulars Tim, Mike, Eugene, Neville, Patrick, Lina, Rembert, Arnold and myself. Games played: Power Grid (Benelux map), Automobiles, Orphan Black: The Card Game and 7 Wonders - Duel.

The two longer games were Power Grid and, played for the first time, Automobiles. Power Grid (on the Benelux map) was won by Tim on the money tiebreak, ahead of Eugene. Both had 17 cities, Tim had 13 money to 4 for Eugene. Arnold was a clear third with 15 cities, while Rembert 14 cities (100 money) and Mike 14 cities (20 money) brought up the rear. Automobiles, a bag-building racing game, was won by yours truly ahead of Patrick, Lina and Neville. Lina had the early lead and came close to pulling a lap ahead of Patrick. Patrick then shot into the lead, as did Neville, but I managed to get the right set of cubes to pull out the win.

Orphan Black is a card game based on a TV I haven't seen, which Ken had brought, which Ken managed to win, 11 points to 10 for Neville (in second). Arnold, Rembert and I were the other players. It was a bit of a deduction game when you are trying to figure out what characters the other players are allied with, all while trying to enhance the position of your favored characters and alliance.

Finally, Tim took on Mike at the 2-player 7 Wonders: Duel, winning by a score of 62 to 46.
