Next Meeting, 11th July 2023

Our next meeting will be Tuesday 11th July 2023.  As usual, we will start playing shorter games from 7.30pm as people arrive, until 8pm when we will start something a little longer.  There is currently no food available, so everyone will be eating before they come out.

This week, the “Feature Game” will be the Fantasies & Futures expansion (rules, review; play-through video) to one of our more popular heavier games, Tapestry (rules; review; how to play video).  We have played Tapestry lots times since it first came out five years ago and this is the third expansion we will have tried which introduces new civilizations, advanced capital city mats, and more tapestry and technology cards.  Although Tapestry is a heavier game, there should be plenty of people to play one or maybe two lighter games in parallel.

Speaking of fantasy…

Over the years, Jeff had been caught by his wife in illicit liaisons with two elves, and more recently a witch. His marriage had just about withstood his misdemeanors because after the last affair he had promised he wouldn’t do it again. But then, one night Jill came home to find Jeff in bed with a young, female halfling.

She screamed at him, “You said you wouldn’t cheat on me anymore!”

Jeff answered, “I know, I know… But can’t you see I’m trying to cut down?”
