Eleven for this week's session, with regulars Mike, Patrick, Eric, Ben H, Jack, Alex, Matt and myself joined by three first-time attendees: Jeff and two more Mikes who shall be known as Michael and Mike Brown to distinguish them from Co-Host Mike Brazinski. Games played: Settlers of Catan, Power Grid: Northern Europe, Match of the Season, Homesteaders and two more games of Splendor.
Results of the games:
Settlers was a quick win for Ben H. Scores: Ben H 10, Matt 4, Patrick 3. Patrick had some bad die rolls, I was told.
Power Grid - Northern Europe (the one version where you switch out the regular plants with some others) was a win for Jack. Scores: Jack (13/62), Jeff 2d on the money tiebreaker (13/23) with Eric and Mike with just 10 plants powered but alot more money. Someone (Jack probably) must have built out to win.
I was pleased to get in a game of my soccer-themed game, Match of the Season, which puts the players in the role of coach and general manager of a soccer team. We got in two seasons, and Michael and I tied with 6 pts with Alex (who won the league in the 2nd season) next with 4 followed by Mike Brown at 2. Michael did well to get into the semis of the Euro Cup in the second season, so I declared him the winner although there was no tiebreaker specified in the rules.
Ben H continued his winning streak in the second round of games, winning Homesteaders which Patrick had brought. Final scores: Ben H 46, Patrick 36, Matt 34.
Seven of us split into two random groups to play Splendor (fortunately we had two copies on hand) -- note, in the past, all seven might have played 7 Wonders but Splendor seems to be the quick-play game of choice in recent weeks.
Game 1 -- Eric 16 Alex 9 John 5
Game 2 -- Jack 17 Mike Braz. 11 Michael 8; Mike B 5
Looks like Ben H and Jack were the big winners on the night, with Jack probably becoming the first player to defeat three Mikes in one game at the club, probably a dubious distinction.
