1) All attendees (Except Dave O.) started with a game of 7 Wonders with Alex Wright pulling off an impressive science-heavy 62-ish point win.

2) All attendees played three games of The Resistance.  The first game was won by spies Scott, Dennis and Dave O.  The second game saw a win by the Resistance, with Dennis, Dave L. and Jim failing as the spies.  The final game was another win for the spies, with Alex J., Scott and Dave L. getting the win.

3) Jim (Dwarves), Alex J (Undead), Ed (Goblins) and Dave O (Humans) played a partial game of Warparty.  It was dwarves and humans vs. goblins and undead.

4) Dennis, Dave L and Alex W played three games of Dominion, with Alex winning all three.

5) Dennis, Dave L and Alex played Attika, with Dave L emerging victorious.

Attendees: Michael Feinberg, Jim Halloran, Chris Cregan, Dave Olson, Alex Jordan, Jay Olson, Ken MacArthur, Jeremee Schrear, Ed Magran, Ryan Frans, Anthony Eaton, Maria and Matt Willey

1) The meeting started with a game of Seven Wonders with Alex managing to just squeak out a victory as Alexandria with 59 points.  Jay was next at 56 with Giza, Micheal got 47 with Babylon even with missing a couple science buildings, for his first game Ken got 44 as Halikanarsis, Jim was just behind him with 43 as olympia, Dave got 37 as Rhodes and Jeremee got 32 as Ephesos.

2) While that was finishing up Ed set up Fire on the Lake.  Matt and Maria started off as the Veit Con but were later relieved by Ryan when they left.  Ed played as the Americans and Jim played as the US allied Vietnamese.  Things started off well for the Americans as they demolished the NBA but near the end the were getting surrounded by new forces and were trying to pull back from the War before they started racking up casualties.  Unfortunately the game did not end up getting finished.

3) Another long game was going on at a different table.  Ken, Jeremee and Jay all delved into a dungeon in Descent.  Despite Dave, an experienced and cruel Dungeon Master, the party managed to survive long enough against Giants and other monsters to win out in the end.

4)The third and final long game was Firefly.  The captains were tasked with a series of highly deadly jobs, each one likely to kill one or more of their crew.  It was a game of riches, as good characters and ship upgrades were easily drawn at the start of the game.  Anthony got off to a very quick start, a crew of hill folk and Jane as well as an assortment of firepower.  He was the first to grab up the first Goal token but was harassed by a Reaver on the way to the 2nd.  He lost several crew and more importantly turns allowing Micheal to pass him, grabbing the 2nd token and making his way to the final objective overcoming some Reaver road blocks.  Alex had a good game but got poor luck on the objective cards and ended up being a few turns behind Micheal.  Chris was probably playing a different game.  He spent the game in the slow freighter ship collecting cargo and finishing log haul trucking missions.  He ended up being incredibly wealthy and in dead last.  Micheal won the game with both Anthony and Alex close behind.

5) To end the day off three games of Bang the Dice Game were played by Chris Jeremee, Mike Jay Alex and Anthony.  It was a bad day for the law as the outlaws proceeded to get a hat trick.  Chris Dave and Jeremee won  the first game, Micheal Anthony and Jay the 2nd, and finally Dave Chris and Jeremee won the final.

Attendees: Jim Halloran, Brandon James,Alex Wright, Dave Landon, Chris Cregan, Dave and Jay Olson, Ken McCarther and Micheal Feinberg.

1) The first game of the day was Mr. Jack. Jim ended up evading the authorities (Dave L and Scott) but was tracked the entire time by Alex the worlds only unemployed detective.

2) Meanwhile Chris played against Brandon in Lord of the Rings: The Confrontation.  Both won once as the forces of Sauron.

3) Alex, Dave L, Jim and Scott played Caylus.  Alex won.

4) Two games of Mansion of Madness  was played by Chris, Brandon, Dave O, Jay and Ken.  Chris was keeper the first game titled “Green Eyed Boy”, the party entered the mansion which was mostly empty.  They moved through the room getting the first few clues with ease.  Jay was the holder of the key items and was given a secret card by the keeper.  The party was wondering if maybe he was turned into a traitor but continued to trust him.  Dave was left behind after being attacked by a flock of witches and getting a broken leg.  Another card given to Dave which made him hesitant for his character to take his life.  Ken ran off ahead but after entering a darkened room constantly under attack by Witches.  Jay managed to catch up and continue finding clues while Brandon getting a secret card of his own moved into random rooms.  Dave managed to hobble to the starting room and the party converged to heal him up but found they lost control of their actions.  The turn ended up with Dave dead after Ken was forced to throw his lantern at him.   This was the victory condition for the keeper, Brandon’s secret card made him the traitor, thus Chris and Brandon won.

The 2nd game Brandon was keeper as he had played through the scenario before in “Blood Ties”.  The investigators managed to gather all the clues but the final puzzle piece was in a pit filled with zombies.  The party ventured in but was defeated, having been vastly weakened by very aggressive Keeper throughout the game.

5) Dave L Alex and Jim played a game of Ra.  Dave managed to win by like a lot.
