As crazy as it seems, we are nearing the end of august! Soon, we will be watching the leaves change and temperatures drop... all through the windows as we game!
Fourth Saturday of August is this Saturday, we will start gaming at ~1pm, though feel free to drop by anytime after 12:30.
What would you like to play?

I'll be showing up a little before 1 PM and staying until 6 or so. I'll be bringing the games I recently picked up again: Heaven & Ale, Santa Maria, the Istanbul dice game, and the Amun-Re card game. Plus, I have another one: Sid Meier's Civ - A New Dawn, which is kind of a Eurocized civ game. Of course, I'm always up for anything new that anyone else has. See everybody on Saturday!

Never played it, but heard good things about it. The listed duration is 1-2 hours. I'd plan for 3 hours, including teaching the rules, but it's probably not nearly as long as most Civ games. It plays from 2-4 and the Geek thinks it's best with 4.

I am always up for a civ game! I'd say we also play all the cool games I got at GenCon, but I only got three games. (though I sold about 35 games at the auction, so the reduction project is going well.

I'm going to try to show up. Might only be good for one game. CIV sounds good if we start quickly.
In other news, if anyone has a Duchess Board Game Table, I have a brown table topper I'm giving away for it. There's a small dent, which my artist/wife has repaired nicely.
Here's the catch... you need to come get it. Anyhoo... free to a good home.

We were promised dropping temperatures by now, weren't we?

Soon is a very relative concept... especially if you are trying to work within *my* time sense.
