Nov 8 - Lots of Games

Started off with a couple games of Mr. Jack with Bruce. This is a simple game with a lot of depth. I could grow to like this!

Al and Steve showed up as soon as the board was set up, so they set up a game of Neuroshima Hex!

We finished both our games before Al and Steve, so we played another round of En Garde! I like this little filler.

Then we got to the game of the day - Samurai. Havent played four player in a long time, and I still think this is a better three-player game, but it was a lot of fun. Bruce won this game, as expected, but ironically all the rest of us, didnt really score any points - The scoring mechanism is really weird.

After we grabbed some supper, Drew and Doug showed up and we played Pathfinder. We are still in the Graul house section of Hook Mountain Massacre, and we really didnt get very far! Lots of side discussions and such, but you know what? I think we all had fun.

Finished off the battle in the Trap-makers room with the Tendriculos. This room is f'n nasty, with a tonne of traps. The group finally dealt with this by usin the traps against the plant monster and Chaine toasted the ogre.

Left the Trap room, cleared a bunch of junk out of the junk room to get at the Temple Doors. These locks are nasty, but between Daigo's Lock Skill and a key that they found on Mammy Graul, they found the 'Chest Room' / Altar. They paused for a couple of seconds, which gave Biggun (nasty spider) a chance to sneak down from behind the group and snatch up Bael. This was a straightforward beatdown, poison vs damage. I put a lot of hurt on the players, but they pulled through.

Of course, the altar doors are open, and Mammy and her 'boys' are coming up RIGHT NOW!!!!
