Oops. I recorded the titles of the games played during this month's Games Day, but failed to record the number of games and players. So this list contains less info than usual. But on the plus side, it's the longest list yet.

February's Games Day had more people than ever... close to 90 gamers including 12 new faces. Welcome aboard! We've had to spread out to other rooms in the building. A dedicated separate room is given to each of the roleplaying sessions which leaves the main hall for boardgaming exclusively. We also came up with a better floorplan which allowed more tables into the room without cramping anyone. Thanks to Rohoe for that great idea.

The Gaming Association of Southwestern Pennsylvania (GASP) gathers on the second Saturday of every month in Pittsburgh PA for 12 hours of gaming. We are open to the public. Our next Games Day is March 8 and you're all invited. Hope to see some of you there.

I don't know how may games were played, but I was in one on France with I think 5 players. I like that map; pretty well spread out. I hate losing by money though; especially if I catch myself buying something I didn't need to.

Near the end of this game I finally figured out a way to get myself some points, but I still don't like the way it feels that someone can start building a lead and you feel compelled to try to interfere even if you have better moves. I don't know; maybe that's just me. And I might come around after more plays. But I just don't see it yet.

This was definitely a cool game. We played with the two-dice variant for determining the King's support during the winter raid. Reinforcements were equal to the difference between the two dice. I got nailed one turn where the dice matched and the King didn't send any aid.

Fun game that's made To Court the King obsolete for me.
