Saturday at Gameology Pasadena with the
With John visiting we had enough for the planned game of Border Reivers while Steve and I did a 2-player
Prelude to Revolution by is a CDG on the politics of Russia from 1905 to 1917. Steve played the Government while I was the Revolutionaries. This was my 4th play and it is further clear that this game is biased towards the Government. So much so the developer has now created a balancing variant.
1/3

The follow up was the 3-player semi co-op on the Spanish Civil War. Terry took the un cooperative nature to heart and it almost paid off for him. After losing the North we lost the South front on the very last event card of the game. Poor Anarchist player Karl never held the government long enough to get any additional chits in the bag of glory. Fun game though. No Pasaran!

First play for all of us of the the Ancient Civilizations of the Middle East yesterday. It’s a civ-lite game for 1-6 players. More players seems better imho. Be warned there is a lot of screwage events and card effects. Be ready to roll with the punches. ACME (what a great abbreviation) is so much better than it’s predecessor ACIS. The map layout and addition of religion adds so much more flavour πŸ‘πŸ‘πŸ‘

3x3 of my plays in April 2023
Some longer games such as the new Kingmaker and Prelude to Revolution. Did not make the gatherings so a little light on this month. Must do better in May!
