We were two tables again for the night with a new gamer, Jimmy.

Table 1

Feudo

This was a rather long game.  Apparently Charlie ran out to a very big lead but the game tied and had to go into overtime.  Charlie ultimately won.

Ave Caesar

We could tell this one was going on by the random jumping up and yelling "ave Caesar".  Jimmy took the roll of Chariot Master.

Table 2

Owner's Choice

This one was was pretty quick and had some interest.  It wasn't until near the end of the game that I saw some potential and how the game should really be played.  I think this one definitely needs another play.

Before the Wind

Another new game from Origins.  This one involves money management, collecting and storing goods and racing to ship goods while adding a little screw your neighbor.  Travis managed to steal one of Ted's needed contracts by one turn allow Kris the final victory about 4 turns later.

Australia

We chased the koala bears and industrialized Australia.  Ted jumped out to a very big lead and never looked back.

Die Kutschfahrt zur Teufelsburg

This was my third playing of the game.  And, all three have ended with one person claiming the victory....in this case, Charlie.  I think I may have to take that card out of the deck next time I play.
