From 7pm till 10pm. I don't know what's planned for this week. Boardgames is likely and hopefully we'll do the Kittens. I'll suggest GoT Risk, but we'll see what else is on offer or preferred. <br /><br />GoT Risk skirmish is pretty much basic Risk for 5 players. It's been years since I've played Risk so I'm vague on all the mechanics. Apparently Skirmish is the simple version. There's another more advanced GoT Risk that's for 7 players and includes politics and character cards. There's even an Essos map.

For my Christmas, I got Game of Thrones Risk, skirmish edition, so I'm looking forward to trying that sometime. <br /><br />And I laughed out loud at Exploding Kittens. I checked it on BGG and laughed even more. It sounds a wonderfully mad little game. I asked the Perth guys if they'd ever played it and one chap also got it for his Christmas. He's bringing it on Thursday to the club and I hope we can play it. You're always welcome to come along if you have the chance. <br /><br />cheers,<br />TomTomhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04701879871669937678noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4187478394034174398.post-4791660543534100532016-12-26T16:33:37.605-08:002016-12-26T16:33:37.605-08:00Always liked Risk and would be interested in seein...Always liked Risk and would be interested in seeing Rogue Stars at some point in 2017.<br />I have managed to mostly avoid Frostgrave plastics although there are a few of the character figures in the lead pile waiting to be prepped and painted at some time in the future.<br /><br />Time, its the one thing that gamers and painters never have enough of :)<br /><br />Cheers, Rossroma912https://www.blogger.com/profile/10874596915202957037noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4187478394034174398.post-60110164059017922952016-12-19T10:12:34.249-08:002016-12-19T10:12:34.249-08:00I will have to try through chrome, it's just a...I will have to try through chrome, it's just a shame as the app used to be perfect, write your thoughts take a picture, and post. <br /><br />I will have to get it sorted soon, need to post quickly to keep as much painting time available as possible.<br />Dont press the red buttonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11413632348293459770noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4187478394034174398.post-43585013410339735412016-12-19T09:43:33.813-08:002016-12-19T09:43:33.813-08:00Interesting Ross.
