Play Testing at Hunter's

We play tested a game still in development. I won't name it here. Couldn't come close to finishing it. Needs some work. Interesting mechanics... just too many of them.

Finished the evening with Bhonanza. Lost again, as usual.

I finally made it to a gathering of the Indianapolis 13th Tribe gaming group. Instead of writing up a bunch of details, I'll use the info from Adam's Geeklist. Much better detail than I would have done...

Here are the games I played:

Railroad Tycoon
Downfall of Pompeii
Guillotine
To Court the King
Cleopatra and the Society of Architects
Power Grid

In addition, over the Ian and I played an aborted game of Russian Rails, and two games of Axis & Allies Europe.
