I have Age of Industry, Fresco (+ Expansion) and Vonhos Paul A Posted 5/24/11 10:09 AM 1. Fresco has shown up a few times: it seemed to get a fairly negative response, although it has a few defenders (JohnB?). I wasn't crazy about it but thought it was fine. Anyway, you should be able to get a game going. I've got an interest in Mystery Express, Nuns on the Run & Powergrid: Factory Manager as well. russell Posted 5/24/11 10:14 AM 1. I've played nuns on the run, and while its ok to play, it seems that almost always, someone will make a mistake unless everyone is experienced, and thus the poor matron nuns get cheated out of a possible victory, which only gets found out at the end of the game. ᴡᴡᴡ.Zubbus-O-Reall...

I have Fresco (in my opinion very good but you need to add a brace or more of the expansion modules otherwise it is like playing with training wheels) Mystery Express - Not a bad deduction game but would question whether the environment at LOB is a good fit (based on only a couple of visits so may be insufficient data) but there are parts of the game which could be limited by poor visibility/space - most notably displaying the time cards - with the game as a whole I would rather play Mystery at the Abbey for a similar experience but both have merits I also have Factory Manager - a big brain burner this one and I am happy to bring along next time I am in town - the bad news is that may not be for a few weeks as current client has killer hours and is at least an hour from the venue - hopefully next gig will be back in the city I would like a game of age of industry - one of Mr Wallace's creations I have yet to play - with my still sealed copy of London waiting for father's day this could scratch an itch A former member Posted 5/24/11 7:50 PM 1. I have Thunderstone ( all expansions) and dungeoneer ( several versions), always happy to play them let me know and we can arrange something down the club. Will Posted 5/24/11 9:00 PM 1. I have age of industry - its good and happy to play any time. Also have factory manager but never played (want to though) ᴡᴡᴡ.Zubbus-O-Reall... Posted 5/24/11 10:58 PM 1. Oh ok great. Looks like I'm going to go regularly to the Sunday ones and as often as I can to the Tuesday one. And I tend to show up early. Probably not Wednesdays as the bus route to Red Herrings is a bit messy at the moment so I'll spend Wednesdays keeping in touch with some others. ᴡᴡᴡ.Zubbus-O-Reall... Posted 6/5/11 11:25 PM 1. Ok, Age of Industry out of the way. Can you do strikethrough formatting on these boards?
