Pound for pound, the amoeba is the most vicious predator on Earth!

In case you did not see, it I wrote a review for Urban Sprawl: Urban Chaos. What is particularly interesting about this game is that even though I ultimately decided it is not a design I can appreciate, it has not diminished my enthusiasm for future Chad Jensen designs at all. There were enough great ideas in Urban Sprawl that I genuinely liked that I expect I will be an early adopter of his next eurogame at well, particularly since he said he would try to keep the chaos level of the design to a manageable level.
The next game I will be looking at is Colonial: Europe's Empires Overseas. I just got my copy today, and I expect that I will be playing it at least once tomorrow, and probably some more this weekend. Expect a review as soon as I think I have figured out the game, and various blog posts as I make my journey. In the meantime, you can check out two strategy articles I wrote based on reading the rules. It will be entertaining to see how right or wrong I was!
This past weekend I attended my favorite Florida-based board game convention: Mike's Mini Meet X. It was quite a bit of fun, and I got to play a nice mix of old and new favorites. I’ve also been made aware of a brand new convention that will be hitting Orlando starting in July. It looks to potentially be a pretty phenomenal one and I cannot wait to check it out and see if I have a new favorite. The shorter drive time will certainly be nice.
More on all of these subjects soon!

What a good question.
