Carcassonne Pascal Werlberger We play with all the tiles from all five expansions, but with the basic rules only. Pascal co-wins the two largest cities, including one with a cathedral, and that propels him to victory with 157 points.

Played at Stephan's place. KISPAM. The full crew is back. Despite being a new dad, Kevin does not seem too sleep-deprived. Despite being a new diver, Mike does not seem too oxygen-deprived. We sandwich a session of two simultaneous three-player games between two six-player games.
