Title: Game night!
Post by: CKorfmann on January 15, 2011, 05:05:05 pm
Playing Carc tonight for the first time in months.  Teaching to some newbies, so it's not ideal, but maybe they'll become veterans soon!  :D  Really looking forward to the game though.

Hope it went well!
We had to skp our Friday night game night.  Went to a Munchkin gathering from 10am to 2pm yesterday with one friend, then with another we played 4-5 games of Dominion while watching football. 

Probably be hitting the Carc next Friday.

It went very well.  6 players, 3 first timers, 1 second timer, and 1 novice (besides me).  We played Base set, I&C, T&B, GQ11, and King & Robber (tiles only).  132 tiles for about 2 hours, with instruction.  Only about 35 points spread from 1st to last, so it was a pretty good game.  I never win when I'm teaching...  Good time.

I'm hoping to get into Munchkin sometime soon.

That's awesome!

I find with this game, even when I lose I still have fun.  To me, all the things you try to do during the game are way more fun than if I win or lose.  I've lost many a game by 1-5 points.  We always score farmers last.  I just love this game period and I have tons of fun whether I win or lose.  About the only game we play that I can honestly say that. 

I've never played with more than three, so I'd be interested in how a six player game flows.

The biggest difference I find is that the landscape changes dramatically between turns.  Lots of opportunities to mess up your stuff.
