Le Truc

Gaming year 2008

January 1, 2009

So, how was the year? Pretty wild, if you ask me. Good new games (2007-2008 games) Dominion — Well, I played 28 games of this, and most of them outside BrettSpielWelt. That’s a pretty nice number, considering how late this game arrived. Everybody likes it, or at least doesn’t mind playing a game. Dominion is [...]

Thursday session: Age of Steam, Dominion, Le Truc

November 6, 2008

Thursday session: Dominion, Container

November 1, 2008

After a quick hand of Le Truc with Hannu, Petri arrived and Container hit the table. Petri is interested in modern-day business games and Container hits that niche pretty well.

I’ve been too busy to write a session report from Finncon. Well, now I have time. I’ll combine reports, as I just returned from our board game club, where I had a rather splendid little session. So, watch out for another blog entry of epic proportions… I played Steam over Holland in both sessions, so [...]

Thursday session: massive Wings of War, Truc, Masons

July 23, 2008

This time we had a slightly larger game of Wings of War: we had nine players and everybody wanted to play. Well, that’s no problem at all, because we had a total of 11 planes available. I had the four from the Deluxe set, four planes from the second series of miniatures, an extra Fokker [...]
