Cristine's Crew

 Scythe with Christine and co.  Everyone thought I was about to win, but on the last turn Christine attacked me and took enough territory to grab the win!

Covid Ravaged Charterstone Finale

 We finally finished the Charterstone campaign.  I was well and truly last - but missing a game put me in a position I just couldnt recover from.

Charterstone Continues

 Continued with Charterstone.  I am being smashed in this campaign -- but can I avoid being last?

Some more Charterstone

 It was great to see Christine and crew.  But my Charterstone position is poor and getting worse!

Post Covid Reunion

After a year, our Charterstone campaign resumed.  I am well behind - I had almost forgotten how to play!

We finished mid-evening, with not enough time to do a second game, so we then played Seven Wonders.

 

Christines Birthday

 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!

General Games at Christines

Susan had a school formal, so I snuck out to games at Christine's with Cassie.  Tapestry, Wingspan, Medici, and a diving game -- a lot of games.  Great fun with great people.

How not to Charterstone

I couldn't play last month, so Cassie played for me.  She left me a fantastic starting setup, and I totally underappreciated it.  Net result is I came way down in the pack!

Charterstone #1 and #2

Kicking off our Charterstone campaign.  I love this game.  It is fun, cute, mildly thinky.  Just perfect!  We played two games, and somehow I managed to win both.

Scythe ring in

Games night at Christine's.  The consensus was Scythe.  I bumbled along and didn't do that well -- which was OK.

Energy Empires

Played Energy Empires at Christine's.  I really liked this game, even though several people gave it a bad rap.  Its a point salad game -- but there are lots of paths to victory.

Rise of Fenris #8

Our last Rise of Fenris.  Given my poor starting position, could I manage to scrape a win?  A totally different set of victory conditions really helped!

In the end, I won the game and campaign.  But it was immense fun.  With robots with death rays, mad monks, mad scientists, etc.

Thanks to Christine for arranging it!

Rise of Fenris #7

Our second last game for Rise of Fenris.  I got moved to a new start position -- the normal Nordic start position.  Except my workers didnt have the 'swim' ability to get to useful locations.  I was trapped.  I managed to build transport, but by the time I got my engine going I was a long way behind.

Rise of Fenris #6

No spoilers.

I won, but didnt get 6 stars.  And big, terrifying Robots everywhere.  And next game they will be coming for me!

Rise of Fenris #5

Playing the Rise of Fenris campaign.  A new faction appeared.  (Wont say anything, because of spoilers)

I won - though it was close.

Rise of Fenris #4

I didnt get to play #3, but my replacement ran hogwild and won.  So my faction has changed.  I wont say anything because of spoilers.

I didnt win this round, but still managed to get 5 stars.

Rise of Fenris - Scenario #2

A similar result to the first game.  I got 6 stars, but didnt get max points - coming equal 2nd.

Rise of Fenris - Scenario #1

Rise of Fenris - the Scythe campaign.  I managed to get 6 stars and end the game, but Christine beat me in the final scoring.

Scythe Group again

Back for a second try.  This time I managed a win

Scythe Group

Got invited to fill in for Christine's Scythe group.

Got totally trashed -- but learnt a lot.
