Thursday games and we were four again without MrWendell or Petra Pan. Not too suprisingly Crabro was keen to play Trajan again and so, despite the losses, was I.Ma Oldie hadn't played it before but belied her gametag and impressed with how fast she picked up the rules. In fact the two who have played it most often were a fairly distant third and fourth (myself and Crabro respectively) while Ma the newbie gave the Professor a run for his money with a good second.
Very enjoyable even for the losers. Stefan Feld really is the designer of the moment for me and Mr C.
We finished with some time to spare and went looking for a filler. We emerged from the games collection with the Prof.'s alleged favourite and old Spears game by the name of Flutter. Given that the Prof. has a mathematical brain the size of a planet, it is perhaps surprising that his favourite would be an old stock trading game that is pretty much completely random but I have to admit it was once again lots of fun.
A very pleasant and satisfying evening's gaming
