Furiously Eclectic People

No game tomorrow because I'm staying home to answer to door for Trick or Treaters.

Next game will be on November 14th. I have my local American Legion meeting on the 7th.

(Note the new domain for SOCDAISY in the "To" address, we have migrated off of yahoogroups due to group deprecation.)

Games are normally on Thursday nights sometime after 6:30PM at World's Best Comics, 9714 Warwick Blvd Newport News, Virginia 23601.

We had our usual Philly Cheese Steak Pizza with fresh Mozzarella. Lately we have added diced tomatoes.

Summary for two weeks prior:

On October 10, we Played two games of TSR's original "Dungeon!" the children's version of D&D played out on a singular map.

The game is full of small cards, 28mm by 38mm.

The HackMaster moniker has been removed from the Subject line. I'm retiring that campaign and going strictly to ad hoc games for the time being.

++++ SUMMARY ++++

We had another Steak and Fresh Mozz with Tomatoes pizza.

Due to a lack of a quorum we played another game of RailBaron with the 21st Century options, namely:

1. B&O serves New York

2. You don't have to pay the $1K on your own railroads. (Saves on time played.)

Oddly enough when not Playing HackMaster I attracted two more players so we had a 5 player game of Rail Baron.

Games are normally on Friday nights sometime after 6:00PM at World's Best Comics, 9714 Warwick Blvd Newport News, Virginia 23601.

We played the board game RailBaron three times, hence there is no HackMaster summary report. The second game lasted 10 minutes as we determined the winner by early purchases and bad location die rolls by others. The winner got SAL and ACL before anyone else and two other players rolled Miami as their next destination.

Looking for a quorum next time. Perhaps we can roll up new characters.

**** THERE WILL BE NO GAME TOMORROW DUE TO WEATHER ****

This concludes a two month hiatus in the campaign. We have had board games in the interim and cancellations due to absences. But usually we meet, whether we run the campaign or not.

This is a two session report. Both nights we had an extra large Philly Cheese Steak with fresh Mozzarella. The second time we added fresh Tomatoes also.

What has gone before:

Games are normally on Friday nights sometime after 5:30PM at World's Best Comics, 9714 Warwick Blvd Newport News, Virginia 23601.

The weather has improved, and I expect a re-attempt at the BattleSystem rules again Tomorrow.

Due to lack of quorums and sometime just due to the awesome heat, we have played mostly Settlers of Catan and Rail Baron for the past few weeks. The 7th of July had no game at all since I was out of town. I had not game on July 19 due to the heat. Although on July 12 we had a change of venue to my home.

The Playtest using the 2nd Ed AD&D we did on May 24th is still valid pending a quorum for the official battle.

Because we Played Civilization on 17 May, someone brought me the Western map expansion for Father's day so we Played it again on the 31st. It was a technical win for Africa based on the ability to have bought the 7th Civilization card to bring it out of the Early Bronze Age and into the Early Iron Age.

On the 7th of June there was also not a quorum, so I canceled the evening so I wouldn't have to pick them up during a storm.

We had an extra large sausage pizza both weeks, that makes it three weeks in a row.

++++ START OF SESSION ++++

On the 17th we did not have a quorum so we played a four player game of Avalon Hills Civilization. Later on, I acquired the western map expansion, we will try that this week.
