A yearly big game!

 Twilight Imperium is never short!

Massive Twilight Imperium

 Played 8 player Twilight Imperium with the expansion.  We started at 10 am, and finished at just before 9:00 pm.  Leon won, but Rob and Cass had a chance of winning.

Twilight Imperium 4

TI 4.

It took 2 hours to do the first turn.  We got 4 turns done, and Cassie won on a tie breaker.  (We were tied for points)

Operation Cromwell and HOGS!!!

Went to Operation Cromwell VI, where I had a lot of fun, but was totally annihilated.  This was a Bolt Action tournament.  My list was infantry focused, with lots of small units.  I dished out lots of damage, but also died quickly!  I did win the 'Stalin Award', for producing the most casualties (on either side)

After Operation Cromwell I came home, but the family flaked out, so I drove down to HOGS.

A high point -- my Bazooka team took out a Panther!

One of the tables was BEAUTIFULL!!!!

Jim had a motorised platoon -- once my Bazooka's died I had a hard time!!  I ended up conceding this one!

A crowd at HOGS (at A52)

Scythe in progress

I got roped into Orleans -- which I love!

There was Twilight Imperium

Martha plotting someones demise

Lots of thought in Orleans!

Martha's fleet looks a lot smaller -- looks like her attack didnt go well!

What does THIS card do???

My farms aren't doing that well!!!!

Rob planning to take some vital resource!

I realised too late what I needed to do!

DiCon Day 2

I played in the Twilight Imperium game.

To cut a long story short, two thumbs up!!!!

Mike explaining the rules (the tech tree in this case)

The start.  I was red (specialising in trading), inbetween Martha (specialising in technology) and David (specialising in politics.  I thought it would be a nice quiet corner of the world ...

I started exploring, and almost immediately my fleet hit a supernova and was destroyed :(

I was hemmed in by the supernova, asteroids, and a gravity rift.  I had to move tovards David.

Lots of people playing various games

David destroyed my new fleet.  While everyone else expanded, I was stuck :(.  But the game was so much fun!
