After the library we had planned on a session of Age of Renaissance.  We were all set up when Kris felt is was running too late to make this one work and we decided just to do some shorter games and reschedule the big game for another weekend.

Mykerinos
An early run on the Art Gallery got me the points I needed for victory.

Goldbrau
It was time to run beer gardens.  Dave managed to gain control of the boss in three gardens and the supplier of their beer.  With only three players, this worried us.  Luckily it took him until the last week to make it happen and I had gained a substantial lead.  But, in the end, I won by $1.  A very close game.

Trias
Next was dinosaurs roaming Pangea.  I have to tell you...I know how to play the rules, I don't get the game.  One error caused Dave not to win.....but, he had the right idea blocking off a big island section.  He should have won.

Attika
Been a while since I had played this one.  Especially in person.  I gathered up an amphora and took a chance on building a tile and having enough to complete a route between two temples.....and, it paid off.

Boomtown
It actually worked pretty well with 3.  I still really like this game.

Clash of the Gladiators
Dave had been itching to try out this dice fest in ancient Rome.  So, we build our gladiator teams and slugged it out.  Light die rolling fun.
