November Game Day Tally, 0-5

So last Saturday I was fortunate enough to host another game day. This was a small event with only 3 other folks, so we decided to play some hard hitting lengthy games.

We started with Starcraft, which worked out well since we all had played one week earlier. The game went just over 4 hours and I lost.

We passed some time before dinner with China and Pompeii. Both games went fast and were a lot of fun. I liked China for the way it combines 2 regions with one color giving you added choices not to mention the way scoring was done. Still though, I lost.

Pompeii as well was fun. I liked the sudden shift from go see the volcano to get the hell out of dodge. Funny quick game, which I proceeded to lose.

Next we all learned Antike. While I had never played before and did not expect to win. James, the anti-Eurogamer next to me also played for the first time and dominated.

So the tally thus far, 0-4

We ended the night with Age of Empires III, A game I have played a few times. Here I thought I may have a chance, but James, anti Euro boy himself, not only won, but by almost twice the points of the 2nd place person. Just goes to show you, some days you win, some days you lose, but James sucks everyday.
