@Martin – The BSG game lasted for 3 hours. The players were: Kat (Pilot), Gaeta (Military), Romo Lampkin (myself, Political) and Cally (Support). I think next time with a similar setup, I would replace the attack cards with the Cylon Fleet board from Exodus. The Crisis cards stack is huge with all the expansions!
@Martin – The BSG game was very interesting. We used only the main components from each expansion, plus the Search for Home module from Daybreak with Earth as the Destination (so no New Caprica nor any modules from Exodus). There were 4 players, so 1 Cylon and 1 Mutineer (Daybreak introduces the Mutineer option, which replaces the Sympathizer from the base game). The Human players won with the lowest resource (fuel) at 3. All resources were in the red. The Search for Home option is very cool, with risky missions that can swing things dramatically. The Human players were lucky to pull only one attack card from the Crisis deck and near the end of the game, as the Cylon player was the sole pilot and declared early.
R9E on Friday night, and a little of everything on Saturday, including Hex Hex (still missing from the database here) and my first game of Legendary. Also been playing the iOS version of Pandemic on my iPad — this is another game missing from the library.
Just with my kids over the weekend so we did King of Tokyo, with the power ups, and Love Letter, along with this dice game I got for 2 bucks called Chupacabbra.
I had a great day of gaming on Saturday, including Mascarade, Eminent Domain, my first ever play of Village, a few manic games of Escape: The Curse of the Temple, and finishing off with a few games of Rumis. All good stuff there. 🙂

@ Mat – thanks for the summary! I cannot wait to add Earth to the equation! You didn’t say how long the game lasted! 😀

But commenting on the news about the Walking Dead which is a topic above …
Love Walking Dead, but I thought the first game that somewhat too simple.
Does this time given a systematic improved in this version of the Walking Dead board game?

@Xamadot I totally agree. Dominare is a great game and one of my definite favorites as well!
Yesterday I played Sergeants Miniatures Game. Great fun!
Played Tokaido with my sons and a few games of Eclipse.
Sentinels. Always Sentinels. I’d like to try out Mice and Mystics, but time is tight this weekend. Maybe next week.
Found my copy of Back to the Future: The Card Game again so took that for a spin, also some Kingsburg and Mice and Mystics.
Finish up the last scenarios for the basic PACG campaign, start exploring Dark Darker Darkest which I received this week.
Terra Mystica for two please.
Love Letter, Discount Salmon, Toc Toc Woodman, & COMPOUNDED!
Dominare, all the way. Just got, love it already.
Played once upon a time, pandemic, and the adventurerd
@Matt – let me know all the details of your BG game. My group has only gotten to the Pegasus expansion once w/o the New Caprica scenario.
I got a game of Agricola in tonight. I hope to get some Sentinels of the Multiverse in along with some Hanabi or Memoir 44.
@Urosh Thanks for the recommendation! I’ll check it out.
