August 14, 2014 Session Report

I was not able to attend due to an out-of-town trip, so co-Host Mike was in charge and here is his report:

"We had 7 people show up. I started by teaching Tim, Alec, Neville and Rembert Concordia. As we were about to start, Wegmen's Ben showed up and we split into two groups. Soon after, a new player, Lina, showed up. Tim, Alec, Ben and Lina played Thurn und Taxis and later Splendor. Neville, Rembert and I played Concordia (the Italian map) for the rest of the evening. The Concordia game ended with me winning at 124 pts, with Neville having 114 and Rembert at 82.

As for the other group, Alec ran away with the Thurn und Taxis game with 21 points. Tim and Ben both had 16 pts and Lina had 13. I think this was the first time anyone other than Tim played that game. After that, Alec needed to duck out and they played Splendor. Ben tried the "Jack Strategy", going for high point cards over everything else and clobbered the other players. He ended the game with 17 points. Lina had 4 points and Tim eked out 1 lonely point."
