So last weekend (so this is a rather late report) the group got together at Tony’s place for a meet up and to play some games outside - making sure we followed the COVID rules for the UK. Unfortunately Sylon couldn’t make it, but it was the first real face to face meeting with Tony for most of the collective.
We started off with Perudo - as DK said it was easy and he can clearly explain the rules to “normal” non gamer types .... unfortunately he also give us little laminated rule sheets which contradict almost every thing he said. So we haphazardly played a few rounds in confusion, before Mrs Tony brought out a very nice dinner of Middle Eastern chicken and rice - which ended the game. There was also a very nice apple crumble and banana cake which we were fed. On my return home when I mentioned the feast my better half said she wasn’t cooking for the group .... which is disappointing.
After the food we moved onto playing One Night Werewolf - which we haven’t played in a while (and not just because of COVID.. actually because I said it was risking getting over exposed on an early post on this very blog) and it was nice to play it again, much merriment it produced. Then we moved onto COUP - another game we haven’t played in a while, again a good game with lots of bluff I quite like the vanilla version (which we played) where as DK prefers the version with factions - I could be persuaded but would like to get the basics sorted before moving the goal posts so to speak. By this time it was around 11pm and getting rather cold - it has been a cold spring this year.
So this week work has been annoying my busy so I haven’t been up to much - but I have finished half a unit of wraith things (chain rasps) for whatever game system I care to use them for.
I am quite pleased with these - as usual the basing needs finishing but they will do the job.
I also sold some old unpainted still in box Confrontation stuff I found - these were technically very good sculpts but I didn’t like the actual miniatures, they will fund something else in the future.
