October 2017 was actually a relatively game-filled month for me. Of my twelve games played, nine were “actual plays” while three are what I call “rules exploration” or “familiarization play.”
The Saturday Game Night was mostly boardgames (i.e. not wargames) with Terraforming Mars getting to the table two weeks in a row. In a lucky turn of events, what should of been a “familiarization play” of Command & Colors: Tricorne became an actual play.
I got two good solo plays in, The Expanse Board Game and Pacific Fury. I really need to get more wargaming going. With the coming of winter (hard to tell with unseasonable upper 70’s outside) I hopefully will get more tabletop time to do so.
Looking forward to November, my niece will be visiting. Last time she was here she became obsessed with Ticket to Ride. This time the RockyMountainNavy Boys want to get Scythe to the table with her. We shall see.

That’s quite the gap between Ticket to Ride and Scythe, isn’t it? 🙂
Good luck and hope it happens!
A nice variety of games played this month.
It is! But her last visit was 3 yrs ago and she’s gamed on her own since. Plus, Scythe really isn’t hard to learn HOW to play it’s the WHAT to play when that’s challenging 🤔
Ah, ok. Three years can make a difference. 🙂
I still haven’t played Scythe. I don’t think anybody in our game group has it and I’ve already been buying too many games.
Take the plunge…it’s worth it!
