Attendees: Dan Carey, Michael Feinberg,Chris Cregan,Kevin, Brandan James, Jim Halloran, Victor Liu Dave Landon, and Karen Landon.

Club Business: None.

1)  Starting off the day, Michael, Brandon, Karen Victor and Jim played a game of Smash Up.  Realizing she wasn’t going to win, Karen and her Dinosaur-Bear alliance hoisted Michael with his ninja zombies to win, edging out Brandon with his steam-punk mages.  Jim’s killer plant ghosts proved ephemeral and Victors Robot tricksters broke down during the game.

2) Elsewhere, Chris Dan Dave and Kevin were embroiled in a game of Kingdoms.  Dave managed to get off to a solid lead after the first turn.  Dispite narrowing that gap every turn, Dave still managed to cling to 1st place by two points.  Final Scores: Dave 198, Chris 196, Dan 132 and Kevin 118.

3) Next up, the club’s new copy of Exodus was opened up by Chris Victor, Brandan, Jim and Michael.  Victor and Jim decided to start off slow and build up their reserves while Brandan and Michael expanded throughout their quadrant and Chris hunted the passive Centauri.  Later, Brandan in a sneak attack, destroyed all of Jims forces before they could be properly fitted with armaments.  Michael with a sufficiently advanced fleet found even the advanced centauri child’s play while Chris found his starting fleet nearly decimated after several battles.  Victor’s fleet appeared on the board fairly late but with only the most advanced weaponry and defense.  In the final turns, Victor’s fleet ruled the galaxy but was unable to make any decisive victories with everyone else avoiding him.  Jim’s empire had resorted to WMDs to strike back at Brandan for the earlier loss.  Brandon found a few of his planets reduced to point singularities, though it was Michael who ended up losing his fleet.  Chris had recreated his fleet but found it was fairly outdated compared to Victors and Brandon’s forces.  In the end Brandan won with 64 points, followed by Victor with 57, Chris at 46, Michael at 27 and Jim with 4.

4) Meanwhile, David, Karen, Dan and Kevin played a game of Thurn and Taxis.  David ended up winning with 25 points, Karen got 2nd with 15, Kevin ended with 9 and Dan at 8.

5) No game of Galaxy Trucker was played.
