The final game Randy and I played last night was Agricola, which I'm happy to report is as enjoyable with 2 players as with 4. Indeed, it was a very tight game, and - as normal for Agricola - it was very difficult to tell who was winning.
I had, by far, the more balanced farm, with all types of crop and animal represented and in good numbers. My trouble came from my house, which was only four rooms big and made of clay bricks. Randy had a group of complimentary occupations that allowed him to make a big 6-room house of stone! Add to that the Half-Timbered House improvement, and he was getting a whopping 18 points from his house, compared to my 4 measly points!
However, Randy hadn't quite completed his farm and had a few negative points to contend with. When we added up the points, we discovered we were tied on 52 points apiece - a fair enough end to a very enjoyable evening.
Agricola Scoring:
Fields Merric 4, Randy 1; Pastures Merric 4, Randy 4
Grain Merric 2, Randy 1; Vegetables Merric 4, Randy 4
Sheep Merric 2, Randy -1; Wild Boar Merric 4, Randy 2; Cattle Merric 3, Randy 3
Unused Merric 0, Randy -3; Stables Merric 3, Randy 3, House Merric 4, Randy 18
Family Merric 15, Randy 15; Occupations: -; Improvements Merric 7, Randy 5
Totals: Merric 52, Randy 52.

Those are pretty good scores for a 2-er. Our highest ever was 57, but our average for the winner (so far always me!) is somewhere around 45.

I was pretty pleased to see us both pass the 50 mark. (Believe me, we weren't playing cooperatively  )
