Captain Sonar Kevin Caron, Pascal Werlberger, Stephan Reebs For this inaugural game we play on a turn-by-turn basis, but with the complex alpha map. Shoot-out as the two submarines come close to one another. Two direct torpedo hits against one.
Monikers Carlo-Antonio Marin, Ian Stewart, Kevin Caron, Mike Gerdov, Pascal Werlberger, Stephan Reebs For this inaugural game (yes, two in one night) we play as one team. Good fun.

Deception: Murder in Hong Kong Alain Haché, Ian Stewart, Kevin Caron, Mike Gerdov, Pascal Werlberger, Stephan Reebs We try Deception for the first time. The games are short and we play many of them. We conclude that with 6 players, the investigators have an easy task unless there is an accomplice to help the murderer. Points to everybody!
Perudo Pascal Werlberger Pascal eliminates all of his right hand side neighbours, in order no less, and wins with three dice left.
Category 5 Mike Gerdov Pascal goes out after 4 rounds, leaving Mike in control with 41 points.

Mysterium Alain Haché, Ian Stewart, Kevin Caron, Mike Gerdov, Pascal Werlberger Two games were played, unsuccessfully at first with Alain as clue giver, then a win with Mike at the helms, just barely, with paper boats and cut trees matched to a typewriter.

Played at Stephan's place. PASI. We take advantage of being only four players to introduce La Isla. It is on the list of Top Ten Games featuring Islands, and yet it has never been played. That's not right.

La Isla Stephan Reebs Stephan gets a good combo of A cards and wins the inaugural game with 65 points. Alain was only one resource cube away from scoring more than 70 points.
Blokus Pascal Werlberger Pascal places all of his pieces, the last one being a straight four-squares.
Tsuro Ian Stewart, Pascal Werlberger Alain must leave, and the rest of us have time for a game of paths. Ian and Pascal die together on a corner tile, with two other tiles remaining in another corner.
