Our next meeting will be on Tuesday 28^th June, at the Horse and Jockey pub in Stanford-in-the-Vale.  As usual, we will be playing shorter games from 7.30pm as people arrive, until 8pm when we will start something a little longer.

This week the “Feature Game” will be Concordia, which is a strategic game of economic development in Roman times where players must rely on their advanced planning and consideration of opponent’s moves rather than luck of dice rolling or card draws.  A longer game where time is strongly dependent on the number of players, we have several copies within the group, so we can play multiple games simultaneously if there is demand.

And speaking of Romans…

Jeff was still working in the bar when, much to his surprise a Roman soldier walked in in full regalia.  He stood at the bar and stiffly waited until Jeff had finished serving and asked him what he would like.

“A Martinus please,” replied the Roman.

“You mean a Martini don’t you sir?” Jeff asked a little confused.

The Roman answered, “If I wanted a double, I would have asked for it!”
