Got to play Dominant Species last night... fantastic!

Got in a few great games over the past three of four nights. Nodwick x1, Guillotine x1, Battlestar Galactica x2 (was a sorry human both times

), Castle Ravenloft x4 (we really need to finish that so we can move on to WoA and LoD), Heroscape x3 and Resident Evil x4 (including Outbreak and Alliance, three of which I won, all mansion-mode).

It's like our gaming group spontaneously decided to have a couple extra game nights this week!

Got in a few games with JUSTchris today.

Star Wars Minis - The Wookies defeated Boba Fett and his companions.

A Few Acres of Snow - The French defeated the British and conquered the North East part of the US. Native American raids proved crucial in the victory.

Dungeoneer - The Paladin was able to finish his quests before the Necromancer.

I remember people posting on here about how much of a hard time they had winning this game. Well I had the ranger and I must say that the majority of the victory was due to my playing my character correctly. Nearly every turn I ended on a green space to get an extra action and I was almost always attacking things one space away from me. We only had to draw darkness cards once in the late war due to saving up those cards that allowed us to skip that phase, also because we went straight into the next battle as quickly as we could. In every boss battle we made sure that we had really good chances of being able to beat them in one combat only. Only the last one even required any rerolls. I look forward to playing it again with other heroes

This doesn't sound right to me. I believe there is only one special card that allows you to not draw any darkness spreads cards for your turn. But once this card is used its removed from game and you'll have no way of getting it back.

Also all boss(General) battles requires rolls, I don't see how you only had to roll dice against 1 boss of the 4. You've should of had to roll dice against all Generals...weird. General battles are never automatic wins and ALWAYS require dice to be rolled even if your party has 20 dice to use against them.

I was wondering the same things.

Dragonspire and a LotR LCG expansion just came in the mail today, so hopefully I can play them sometime this week.

I also got Ronan the Wild painted

I caught my one mistake from reading his post, he said only 1 boss required any rerolls.

To answer we played the game I think pretty well… I disagree with lafleurhero that he did more than I did I think it was a very good team effort. Second, I had both a special card and a quest card that said I did not have to draw the darkness cards.

Ifstream, I'm sure he didn't mean that the way it sounded. Well, "sure" might be overstating it a bit...

Anyway.

We've been playing Summoner Wars with some 'Scape tourney prep mixed in. It's been a fair amount of gaming recently in the 'Scaper family home.

This weekend got in 1 X Summoner Wars, got lucky and won that game against john. The other game was 1 X Defenders of the Realm, we both won the game. Summoner Master set is a very good buy.

Got some Rune Age, Quarriors, Blood Bowl: Team manager, and Dungeon Run plays this past weekend. Fun times.
