Great War scenario #6 with Simon.
A close game that could have gone either way, but Simon played his cards better.

We played wingspan. Alex got me the Oceania expansion -- but I hadnt had time to sleeve the cards, so we played Base + European birds. Ross crushed us. Notable is Matt played, and Matt hates birds.
Took Taylor and Taewoo and Alex to Freycinet. Came home after camping and we played the original clank.
Played Blood Rage. It was a little unfair -- I new how to play, and a couple of people were learning.
Went to Mt Field East with Cass, Cass's sister Ashlea, Martha, and Taylor. The weather was bad - we were snowed on. So we cut the hike short, stopped at the Salmon Ponds and ate pancakes, and then came home and played games.
Played Powergrid, using the German map. Johnathan played a masterful game for his first time playing, trouncing all of us.
Continuing on with clank legacy. Cameron has decided to drop out -- but Cass, Ross and I (and one of Ross's children) will finish the campaign!
Simon has just moved to Hobart from Canberra. We tried out Command and Colors Ancients - the battle of Marathon. Simon won both games - winning as Persians and Greeks. Showing the scenario is even!
We have never tried Kemet with 5 players. It is interesting -- there is a real rush to get cards. In the end Nat one, but everyone else was 1 point (out of 8 needed) away from victory, so it was anyones game!
Cameron couldnt make it, so Ross's son Jack filled in. Somehow Cameron's character died. But so did mine :(
We screwed up the scoring. Nevertheless we had a great time. This is a great game -- but does the artwork have to be so depressing?
The communists won the cold war. They had a stranglehold on central and south America, and dominated Africa and the middle East. While capitalism ruled in Asia and Europe, that wasnt enough!
We played Mansions of Madness as it was getting close to Halloween. Martha didnt like it. I liked it enough, but not enough to buy expansions.
The final Charterstone. I won with 1043 points, Cass being second on 1039, and Martha on 1020. Followed by Nat, Rob, and Ross. But the story was bleak -- the winner was the loser! But everyone has to call me king now :)
Played Scythe at Christines place. We did the random map variant, which adds a lot to the game. We then went on to play 7 Wonders with the leaders expansion, which was also great!
