DuckiCon Impressions - Coal Baron ( Game 6 of 6 )

The last game I played at DuckiCon was Coal Baron.
I had mistakenly thought that this was a train game of sorts ( I should try not to label games as train games just by how the cover looks ) and thus never bothered to give it a glance during my time at Essen.
We had 3 of us left by the time DuckiCon was coming to a close and decided that a quick short game was in order. Eric said that Coal Baron would be a quick yet somewhat satisfyingly good game, so we decided to jump right in.

DuckiCon - Keyflower & The Farmers Expansion ( Game 5 of 6 )

The only game I played at DuckiCon that didn't start with the letter C was Keyflower.
I have played Keyflower twice previously and its a game that I really really enjoy. This time round we managed to add in the farmer expansion as well to see how it changes things up compared to the base game.

DuckiCon - Coconuts ( Game 4 of 6 )

I'm not sure if I need to say more about how awesome Coconuts is.
Everyone who has played it has loved it. Light and heavy gamers alike.
Well, I did meet one friend who dissed it without having played it, I'm sure a play would change his mind, but he's being stubborn. Luckily I'm stubborn too. We'll see who wins out.

Anyway, just a few pictures of our game at DuckiCon.
Jean finally won a game of this. She used to be so horrible at it. Times are a-changing.

DuckiCon Impressions - Concordia ( Game 3 of 6 )

Concordia had a big footprint at Essen this year and was one of the booths that was constantly flooded with people. I didn't manage to get a demo in then, but the feedback from others were mostly positive.
Eric managed to borrow a friend's copy and I gave it a go during DuckiCon.

DuckiCon - Castles of Burgundy ( Game 2 of 6 )


Yay! I finally got to play Castles again! It's been 5 months since my last play... zzz
If you have been listening to our podcasts ( which you better, *sharpens knife* ), you will know that I love Castles of Burgundy ( Castles ). It's probably my favorite game of all time and something I would never ever refuse a game of.

DuckiCon Impressions - Caverna ( Game 1 of 6 )


The first game I managed to play at DuckiCon was Caverna.
Eric commented: "You are actually playing Caverna !", when he saw me preparing to dive in.
The reason for this - in case you are not aware - is that I absolutely abhor Agricola. It's one of those games where I would rather search out something else to play or do than to sit through a session with that monstrosity.
