Matt Ackerman, Chris Cregan, Michael Feinberg, Jim Halloran, Dave Olson, Ben Samuelson

Games Played

Matt (Medic), Michael (Generalist), Jim (Contingency Planner), Dave (Dispatcher) and Ben (Containment Specialist) played Pandemic: The Cure. The team was able to find cures for all four diseases to win the game!

Matt (Saxony Empire), Michael (Crimean Khaneg), Jim (Russviet Union), Dave (Republic of Polania), and Ben (Nordic Kingdoms) played Scythe. Final scores: Michael – 70; Ben – 66; Dave – 55; Jim – 52; Matt – 35.

Matt, Chris, Michael, Jim, Dave, and Ben played Captain Sonar. It was Captain/First Officer Michael, Radio Operator Ben and Engineer Jim up against Captain/First Officer Chris, Radio Operator Matt and Engineer Dave in a tense battle below the waves. In the end Michael, Ben and Jim won a decisive victory.

Chris (Overseers of Kalgon), Michael (Tri-Bot), Jim (Recyclons v40K), Dave (Freep), and Ben (Mhee Yow-Meex) played Mag Blast. It was a prolonged battle that was for some reason referred to multiple times as a Steve Jackson game — even though to set the record straight Steve is completely innocent and had no involvement in the game. In the end, Michael’s Tri Bot fleet was able to pull off the win.

Matt, Chris, Jim, Dave, and Ben played Fearsome Floors. Chris got out to an early start and was able to hang on for the ultimate victory.

Games Played

Matt and Jim played Risk: Star Wars Edition.  Matt’s rebel forces won the game by destroying the Death Star.

Michael, Dave and Ben played Suburbia.  Ben dominated, with Dave and Michael as distant second and third.

Matt and Jim played Risk: Star Wars Edition.  This time Matt’s rebels were down to their last fighter in a desperate attempt to destroy the Death Star, but it was not to be.  Jim’s Imperial forces crushed the puny rebellion.

Matt and Jim played Tiny Epic Galaxies.

Matt, Michael, Jim, Dave and Ben played Terra Mystica. Michael dominated the game, with Ben a distant second followed by Dave, Jim and Matt.

Michael (Containment Specialist), Jim (Dispatcher) and Dave (Medic) played Pandemic: The Cure. The good guys were no match for the diseases, losing to an 8th outbreak having only found a cure for one of the diseases.

Michael (Contingency Planner), Jim (Medic) and Dave (Generalist) played Pandemic: The Cure. This game was much closer to a win, with 3 of the 4 diseases cured, and a chance to cure the fourth on the final turn, but it was not to be and the 8th outbreak ended the game.
