Tuesday night #boardgames and #craftbeer with the #VCSB meetup in #thousandoaks

A bunch of new, to us, gamers and one new/old game in Black Gold. Find, extract, and sell oil in 1920s Texas. It’s a wild ride with fluctuating prices. Too random for some perhaps. Bob brought along Æterna again. I must give that a play because  #MartinWallace

#craftbeer with the #VCSB meetup at #pedalsandpintsbrewing in #thousandoaks

A fun game of AuZtralia with 4 players. Stupid kangaroos! It’s a blast of a #martinwallace design with a semi-uncooperative win condition. We lost to the game😬

Our table recruited some others to end the night with a 7 player game of 7 Wonders Architects. Always good.

Other tables played Rebirth Ireland , Yokohama, and Merchants of the Dark Road.

Tuesday night #boardgames and #craftbeer with the #VCSB in #thousandoaks

A not so rare thing happened while I taught the #MartinWallace designed #boardgame AuZtralia. I got a rule wrong 😞 Oops. Yes it happens. It didn't break the game too much. I made up for my error by correcting another game teacher's rules errors. Twice 🤪
Rules mistakes happen folks. Fix it the best that you can and move on.

London (second edition) #boardgame designed by #MartinWallace
That's the one with poverty cubes. It's always a nice brain burning balance.
We ended with the simple dice rolling fun of Can't Stop.

Bon j'aime beaucoup Martin Wallace ! Alors
voici le compte rendu de notre partie de Bloodstones,
l'un de ses derniers jeux que l'on testé la semaine
passée. Au programme : batailles entre peuples
fantastiques, le tout à base de tuiles gravées et d'une
mécanique très épurée.

Monday night #VCSBG #boardgames & #craftbeer

Two new #boardgames on Monday night.
Bloodstones #boardgame designed by #MartinWallace . It's a 1-6 player fantasy wargame with slightly asymmetrical factions and some clever mechanics. It's diceless and uses thick plastic tiles for both cards and the on-map units. The rules are not that complicated but getting to grips with each factions abilities is key to doing well.

Merchants of the Dark Road was played on the other table

Monday night #VCSBG #boardgames and #craftbeer in #Moorpark

A Handful of Stars #boardgame. The last game published by the #MartinWallace Treefrog Games back in 2017. Perhaps I should have inventoried the game before yesterday. I had the 3 replacement cards but I was missing one red cube. Luckily, I have oodles of spare cubes. And more luckily I’m glad the missing piece was not some special shaped wooden bit.
AHOS is the last in the “A Few Acres of Snow” trilogy of #boardgames
