Today marks a great day in the masterbeaters house! Knocked out some big games to get us in a good position to move forward, with help from a few friends.
Games for the day include:
Lord of the Rings LCG – Strong win on quest two, no dramas and a good start to the day.
Mansions of Madness – Two hours of play for Kieran and Archie to go insane, and the innsmouth mobs to swarming and killing us all.
Spirit Island (feat. Panda) – First playthrough, like usual, Kieran was in charge of the rules, and we ended up cheating a lot. Solid game, nice little win of a tutorial mission.
Zombiecide (feat. Panda) – Failed for about our 10th time on Mission 6. So close to the end and then just overrun by extra activations due to all the zombies being on the map.
Xcom (Feat. Matt & Kelsey) – Some very lucky rolling gave us victory over an easy mission. Matt demonstrated he couldn’t manage money, putting us in deficit.
Space Alert (Feat. Matt & Kelsey) – Two plays of this, for anyone who hasn’t played, I recommend a round with Kieran as your captain. First play saw us kill no ships, be delayed about 6 times, and have everyone knocked unconscious. Second round saw a big improvement with Matt learning he just had to keep firing and not listen to Kieran.
Harry Potter: Hogwarts Battle (Feat. Matt & Kelsey) – Aced our way through the fifth year without too many dramas. Forgot we all had powers until about 10 rounds in which made the start a bit rocky.
7 games puts us back on track with a total of 9 for the weekend! Also good to knock out a few big games early to leave the smaller ones for weeknights. Have started putting aside the games we’ll have to take away to the sunshine coast in order to keep on track. All signs indicate its going to be a very long month.
