Thursday
Last Thursday, we gathered at my Mom’s house for our annual summer game day. Attendance was down somewhat but we still had a good group and played a decent number of games. Attending were myself, Carol, Rachel, Ben, Beth (my mom), Trenton Jones (my nephew), Mike Murphy, Paul Seegers, and Paul Czarnota. Also, for the first time, my brother, Mark, and my niece, Courtney, came by to play a game. Because Paul Czarnota had to be back home the next morning, it was an early evening for us, ending at 1AM.
The tally is below. (Winner listed in bold).
That’s all for the Indiana group until Christmas!

| Tote Board | ||
| Epic Duels | Ben/Bob, Rachel/Trenton | Bob: Luke and Obi Wan beat up on Darth Maul and Darth Vader. |
| Einfach Genial | Carol, Paul C, Bob, Trenton | |
| Rheinländer | Paul C 45, Carol 34, Beth 26, Bob 26, Trenton 24 | |
| Rheinländer | Carol 32, Bob 32, Paul C 32, Mike 30, Trenton 28 | Bob: I think we messed up the end game. The rules are somewhat unclear as to when the game ends. We ended it at the end of the turn a player played his last knight. I now believe players should finish the current round. If true, I screwed myself out of the win in the second game. Ah well. |
| For Sale | Paul C 51, Bob 48, Carol 45, Beth 44, Trenton 39, Mike 34 | |
| Shadows over Camelot | Paul S, Paul C, Carol, Trenton, Rachel, Bob, Mike (traitor) | Bob: This was a very good game marred by one slight rule mishap. For the first part of the game we allowed a second same heroic action at the sacrifice of a life point. We should only have allowed a different heroic action. This helped us to finish two quests, The Black Knight, and Lancelot’s Armor, more easily than we should have. Of course the traitor was the one who found Lancelot’s Armor! Mike played the Traitor better than I have yet seen him played and may have won had we not made things easier for the good guys. Credit goes to Carol who umasked him just before the end of the game. As it was, good triumphed! We had a lot of fun with this. |
| Circus Flohcati | Trenton 60, Mike 50, Bob 49, Carol 41, Beth 38 | |
| Traumfabrik | Mark 83, Paul C 81, Mike 76, Bob 55 | Bob: This was a hard fought, very close, excellent game won by my brother, Mark. |
| Ticket to Ride | Carol 115 (8 tickets), Rachel 115 (4 tickets), Beth 110, Trenton 99, Courtney 60. | |
| Attika | Bob, Mike, Beth, Rachel/Trenton | Bob: Rachel took over the last few turns for Trenton when he had to leave. This was as close a game of Attika as I’ve seen. |
