Oct 23 - 30 Chicago

Found plenty of Board game action in Chicago

Started on Saturday at Guthries Tavern

Games library


Taught 4 newbies Agricola :-)
Then a few rounds of No Thanks then went back to Beth's house (organiser) for another 5 hrs of gaming
Played Dominion and Tales of Arabian Nights which is a good party game.

Next was on Monday in a pizza parlour.
We played Halloween themed Dominion
Secret Chamber, Lighthouse, Native Village, Village, Masquarade, Sea Hag, Bazaar, Laboratory, Witch and Ghost Ship.
Then another with Pirate Ship and cant remember other. Pirate Ship is very powerful, I will beb ready for iyt next time :-)

Then Wednesday in the back of a gamestore






Learnt this great new game Tobago Its a lot of fun to play, only takes an hour and will be a great crossover game to get people interested in euro games.


Also taught 2 newbies Agricola :-)

Last game night was at a sort of club room.
Learnt Railroad Tycoon a lot of fun and played it twice


THEN

I spotted one of the guys had Agricola: Farmers of the Moor I was so excited, while I dint get to play it I was able to look through all the contents






I am desperate to get to play this :-)

Finished off the night with a few games of Dominion and learnt the value of trashing.
