MIS. A reduced gang this week, Alain and Pascal being in Europe, Kevin being sick, and Carlo being MIA. Unusually, Stephan starts the evening with a vodka drink, and it seems to work for him.

Ian loses his way early, and Stephan meets Mike soon after, forcing him out. There was about 10 squares still open at the end of the game. |

Much closer result this time, all three players going out one after the other, Stephan being the last one of them. |

Torres |
Carlo-Antonio Marin
|
Carlo controls the tallest and biggest-based castle, leads from beginning to end, and wins with 188 points. Everybody guards well against parasites; Mike is the only one who succeeds in doing some parasitizing, and he finishes second. |

Notes |
Settlers of Catan |
Pascal Werlberger
|
With less than ideal numbers (3,3,4,4,5,11) and dividing the board in half with the longest road, some nice 3 and 4 rolls in the second half of the game secure the win. There were only two development cards bought in the whole game. |
Love Letter |
Ian Stewart
|
To nobody's surprise Ian won one of his favorite games. With a 3-player 3-cubes tie, Ian won the deciding game. The game also featured 3 Baron comparisons between Princess and Countess. |

Azul |
Alain Haché
|
Introduction game of Azul for Mikhail, Alain and Pascal. Close win of 41 points by Alain to Pascal’s 40. Mike gets screwed by dropping 8 tiles on the floor for a whopping -14 points penalty. Ouch. |
Carcassonne |
Mike Gerdov
|
Giant castle worth 52 points, started by Pascal on the starter tile, gets scored by Pascal, Mikhail and Kevin. This along with multiple scoring fields brings Mike to a total of 123 points for the win. |
