Friday 2 July 2010

Andrew Parr joined the regulars for some of the popular games of the moment.
Masters Gallery
While we waited for John and Nigel I taught Anne, Andrew H and Andrew P. Unfortunately superior experience didn't pay off for Anna and I.

Anna 14 30 46 72
Ian 15 33 43 65
Andrew P 14 36 55 101
Andrew H 7 29 59 85
Anne 20 30 54 78

Frank's Zoo
This was Nigel's revenge. He roared into the lead and no-one else seemed particularly keen on coming second!

Anna 4 7 6 8 10 9 15
Anne 5 4 7 11 11 14 18 (second on tie break)
Nigel 2 9 15 19 24 26 26
Andrew H 2 4 8 7 11 17 18

El Capitán
While Nigel was re-naming Frank's Zoo to Nigel's Zoo, we pulled out this game that hasn't been played for awhile. Andrew Parr always had a hand of cards while John and I played with very few cards. We thought after the second payday that John was running away with the game but Andrew made a good come back.

We missed the double fortress payout rule, where in the city with the most warehouses the fortress payout is doubled.

Attika
Anna and Anne were keen on playing this again and as El Capitán was far from finished there was plenty of time to play this through to the very end. Andrew winning, followed by Anna, Nigel and Anne.

Attika hadn't quite finished so Andrew suggested that John and I play this simplified version of Modern Art.

John B 10 39 68 92
Andrew P 6 29 58 84
Ian 14 43 65 83

Beowulf
After the others left we finished the evening battling along side Beowulf. Andrew was doing really well for most of the game. But John and I made a come back towards the end.
