Thursday 30th October 2008
Still ridiculously busy in the shop, so this will have to be another hastily written score sheet .....
Players:
Barrie,
Chris, Dave F, Dave
H, Jonathan, Mark P, Mel, Nick, Rich, Roj, Simone, Sue
Games Played:
Mike and Barrie arrived first so they had a go at this great two-player game. Barry had never played before.
Barrie:
Chris:
Dave F:
Rich:
All won (kind of)
This was the first win for a group of this game, but sadly they fell foul to the misprint (there's a card that reads "reduce ghosts to 1" and should read "reduce ghosts by 1". I'm not saying they wouldn't have won if they'd played properly ... I'm just saying they cheated and it doesn't count, that's all. Although to be fair, they didn't know they were cheating :-)
Le Havre (Short Game)
Roj:
91
Mel:
80
Mark: 77
Jonathan:
67
This was the first of two versions of this game played tonight, although the other one was a full game. This was a game for the lightweights! A good win for Roj in a game enjoyed by all.
Meanwhile, the ghost hunters were off building kingdoms ....
Dave
F: 45
Barrie: 42
Rich:
34
Only a lukewarm reaction to this game, which is currently being raved about by many.
Le Havre (Full Game)
(Buildings & Ships + Bonus Points + Cash)
Simone:
(140 + 0 + 16) 156
Nick:
(100 + 27 + 8) 135
Sue: (70 + 0 + 64) 134
Dave
H: (110 + 0 + 5) 115
An excellent game, enjoyed by all (despite the four hour first game) and one of those games that prompts a lot of discussion afterwards.
And the last game for the remaining upstairs players ....
Rich:
5
Barrie:
4
Dave F: 4
Roj: 4
I've been wanting to play this one, but didn't see any of it. However, it did generate more favourable comments than Dominion did, which was quite surprising.
And that was it for another night. That Le Havre really sucks time out of games night!
Thanks everybody for coming out and maybe we'll have a bit more space next week.
