We’re looking at Saturday May 24th at 6:30 pm. It’s a 3 day weekend, so double check your plans. Hopefully, everything will line up and we’ll get to enjoy a game again.

Next Game: Friday May 16th
We’re off this week, with several people up in the air and Jennifer unavailable. We’ll pick back up on May 16th, unless I hear otherwise.
You’re currently paralleling the river, heading north and reconnoitering the fields. So far you’ve seen several different farm sizes– with a handful of slaves to more than fifty on one plantation.
Next Game: Friday May 2nd
I’ve spoken with everybody and we’re all on board for gaming on Friday. If circumstances change, please let us know. Otherwise we’ll pickup the story where we left off– just after the enslaved gnomes were reunited with the gnome outriders.
See you Friday!
Struggle for Rome
Struggle for Rome is a Settlers of Catan variant that we picked up in Rome. Unfortunately, the version we bought has only Italian rules. Here are various resources for the game:
wikipedia overview
Board Game Geek page, including translations of the quick reference cards in PDF format.
Mayfair games page: Home page for the English version of the game
ProfEasy tutorial, for a quick English introduction to the game.
Reviews: one, two.
Next Game: Friday May 9th
We’re off for a couple of weeks; Jennifer and I are off on our honeymoon, then Kev will be out of town. We’ll resume in May with everyone hopefully well rested and ready to go.
If you can’t make it May 9th, please let us know.

If you saw my brief lived stupidity (where I ignored this post and started to line up this weekend) please ignore it. The rest of the previous post [minus the bad info] has been appended below…
We’re back in country and look forward gaming with you again, hopefully soon. Board games might fit right away, but as noted above, we’re looking at May 9th for D&D.
On a side note, Josh let me know that roleplaying is not doing it for him right now, so we’ll continue the game with Denia moving into the background. If/when Josh decides that he’s interested in playing again, we’ll welcome him back.

Keep an eye on your schedules and let us know what days work for you this upcoming weekend. Friday night doesn’t work at the moment, so let us know how Saturday [the 12th] and Sunday [the 13th] work for you. Both are available– let me know which (or both) you can make.
When we left the PCs, they’d endured a spider ambush and fought off the draconian relief force. We had setup the battlefield for the caravan ambush… they’re in the PC’s sights. Everyone (save the watch) is just waking up as the caravan rounds the corner…
Update: Since everyone seems to be pretty flexible, I’ll call around tonight to see if Saturday at 6:30 pm works for everyone.
Next Game: Friday April 4th
We’re next scheduled for a game Friday April 4th. If you’ll have any trouble making it, please let us know.
We left off with the PCs in dwarven occupied land, looking for the second slave caravan in the light woods between Gleyn and the Fox Clan’s plantations.

If you get another warning about Html_Iframe.gq or anything else, can you take a screen shot and email it to me? Tech support was unable to find it.
Thanks!
Next Game: Friday March 28th
After a few weeks of conflicts, I hope everyone is looking forward to getting together and gaming. Can everyone make it Friday, the March 28th.
