Gaming Diary

We do do quite a bit of gaming through the week. And all we get at the end of it is me posting a Play. So I though I'd set this up and then I can add any kind of detail and discussion I wish.

and I played a few short games tonight.

2 games of Dominion. Random selections from all expansions both times. We use the 'deal 8 and find 2 more Alchemy cards if any came out, non Alchemy if non came out' method recommended by DXV and for the Prosperity extras, I roll a d6, if I roll equal to or less than the number of Prosperity cards in the setup, we use the Colony and Platinum cards. The first game had no alchemy, but we had the Prosperity cards in play. I won quite emphatically. In the second game, both Alchemy and Prosperity were used. Kel wiped the floor with me 86 to 34. Watchtower and Mint made their debuts, both very strong cards.

Kel gave up and returned to Facebook. I decided to take on the Genestealers in a solo game of Space Hulk: Death Angel - The Card Game. A game fraught with danger, I lost the yellow team early on but fought on to the Launch Control Room and the prospect of getting the hell out of there. With 2 tokens on the launch control card, 2 surviving Marines, 1 Support Token available and 5 Genestealers surrounding me I activated the Control Panel, rolled a 2 and achieved my first victory! Very satisfying!

Nice to know I'm not the only one. I have played at least 10 games so far and have gotten slaughtered every time.

Ironically I just had my first solo-win last night after this post! really close call though, only Lorenzo survived... surprise

But hang in there, you're bound to beat it eventually.. There's only so many Genestealers out there...
