An even dozen for this week's session. Doug, Mike, Alex, Rouslan, Ben A, Ben H, Lina, Tim, Rich, Rembert, Neville and I were the attendees. Games played: Basket Boss, Game of 49, Power Grid, Crude and King's Forge. A few details follow.
Basket Boss was a four-player, with only one (me) having played before. Final scores were Lina 48, Neville 40, John 39, Doug 35. Well-done by Lena who seems to have done well picking up new games the past few weeks.
Power Grid was won by Ben A, with 18 cities powered. Rouslan and Rich also had 18, but Ben had more money (224 to 214 for Rouslan and 166 for Rich). Tim, who had even more money (250) could only power 17 cities at the end. No word on what map was used.
Crude (aka McMulti) was on by Alex, with 753 to 703 for Ben H, 694 for Rembert and 436 for Mike, who taught the game. Credit to Mike for being a good teacher, I guess.
King's Forge (brought by Neville, with Doug, Lina and I as the other players) did not make it to the finish. I got 3 of the 4 required rewards but was not in a good position to pick up a fourth, so a definitely asterisk on that one.
Game of 49 was a quick filler that was picked up when more people began to show up.
A reminder that the coming weekend (Sept. 27-28) is Congress of Gamers in Rockville, MD., one of the least expensive gaming conventions around. For details, check out the convention website which is congressofgamers.org.
