KP - pascal and Kevin go face to face at two-player games. Stephan is incapacitated, Alain is drowning in exams, Mike is overwhelmed, Ian saves G2E!
We play a game of Taco Cat Goat Cheese Pizza for shits and giggles, but abandon it after we realized it’s REALLY aimed at kids.

Fox In The Forest |
Pascal Werlberger
|
Great 2-player game that mixes the concepts from Love Letter and Screw Your Neighbor – both favorites of HFG. Pascal pulls a victory of 22 points against Kevin’s 18. |

Imhotep Duel |
Kevin Caron
|
Imhotep, made for two! Boats are unloaded, tensions are high, meeples work hard. Kevin wins with 49 over pascal’s 42. |

AMKIPS. Hurricane Fiona badly mauled the Maritimes last weekend, and today Hurricane Ian is wreaking havoc in Florida, so of course (and as we often do at this time of year) we play Category 5.

Category 5 |
Pascal Werlberger
|
Hurricanes Kevin, Ian and Alain (Allen?) are so powerful they are the first to trigger the end game, all at the same time. The game is won handily by Pascal, who does not have a hurricane named after him yet - he's no more than a weak depression at 27 points. |

Incan Gold |
Stephan Reebs
|
Mike and Ian get in each other's way (i.e. leave at the same time) and later Alain and Pascal do the same, leaving Stephan with a modest win at 26 points. |
|
Tsuro |
Pascal Werlberger
|
Close contest (but without Alain) where Pascal ends up alone on the last square. |

AMSPI. Kevin is away at a parent-teacher meeting, so we play a game he's not too keen on.

Alain Haché
|
Close contest that ends in a three-way tie for first (15 powered cities). The tie-breaker gives a clear win to Alain (53 dollars left) over Mike (17 dollars) and Stephan (1 miserable dollar). |

MIASPK. Everybody uses the back entrance because work is being done on the HFG's front porch. From there people move straight to the table, leaving us no time to chat about the Queen's death.

Alain Haché
|
Convincing win by Alain, whose 61 points are 10 more than the nearest competitor. |

Mike Gerdov, Pascal Werlberger, Stephan Reebs
|
Kevin leads the first easy win; Mike squeezes a tough second win; so it comes down to the last game where Stephan successfully gives a clue for 4 (actress for Hollywood, screen, play, and princess) and benefits from two gifts from the other team. |
