Obligatory End-of-May Update

I am just on the cusp of the edge of the verge of beginning to start gaming on a regular basis again. A few weeks ago I played Pirate King with Nicole K. for the first time. It’s a board game published by Temple Games rather like an elaborate offshoot of Monopoly with tactical options. It was fun for two, but might get ungainly for groups of three or four, as Nicole K. observed. A week after that I played a few games of Master and Commander: The Far Side of the World by Front Porch Classics. I had been looking forward to playing this one for a long time and it didn’t disappoint. LT played the first two games with me and then we played several more times with my mother. I wanted to try the Advanced Play rules, but I couldn’t convince the landlubbers to take the plunge. Next time, though, ’twill be the Advanced Play rules or they’ll feed the fishes. I even have a few ideas for some house rules…
