Post by: CrazyFrog on 20 May 2013, 23:05:47
Summer Beer & Pretzels 2013

I made it to this years event, but only for the Saturday.

Started the event off with 3 games of Tortuga the fantastic turtle game for 2 players.
Its like draughts but with the strategy of chess.  Me and Sylvia started of a game, then was joined by Chris who was new to BnP but longer time gamer.  Each player won a game, but for the last game Sylvia vs. Chris I did some coaching to help explain the more in depth level of thinking and moving ahead that you can do as a player.

2 rounds of Tsuro followed with Chis and Sylvia winning respective rounds.


Rumis
Chris owned this game and wanted to play it to better understand it
Scores: Chris 19, Sylvia 17, Sally 17, CrazyFrog 14

The next game was on the right angled half pyramid in which I made the classic 2 player opening move forgetting it was 4 player then got blocked off so I was stuck with a score of 4.   
Scores: Chris 18, Sally 15, Sylvia 10, CrazyFrog 4


Marrakech
The carpet game that’s simple to pick up.
Scores: Sally 52, Sylvia 42, Chris 40, CrazyFrog 31


Bucket King
Great fun game that always better the second time around as players enjoy making it hard for the other players.
Scores: CrazyFrog (Winner), Chris, Sylvia
Scores: Sally (Winner), Chris, Sylvia, CrazyFrog

Nuts

Haven’t played this in a while, I remembered it can be fun, but you need 3+ players to make it a good game.
Scores: Chris (Winner), CrazyFrog


Master Builder

This I would like to play again, it’s a 3D game without the need for glasses lol.
You bid on contacts to build buildings or city walls in order to construct a city.  These items require labour which you have to select and pay.  However sometimes your labour goes on strike etc and slows you building.

Scores: Melissa 156, Frog 89, Caz 70, Andie 65


Seasons
Need to play this again in order to write a review, I remember it was played using dice to get elements with you use to play the power cards in order to do things.  The object was to get lots of crystals and use the power cards as VP’s for the total score.

Only played for 2 seasons instead of 3 as it was getting late in the day.
Scores: Melissa 77, Frog 65, Caz 56, Andie 48
