Thanks, kettlefish!

I'll be unavailable tonight, because I'll hopefully play a 6 Player Match in real-life. ;-)

I'm in the chatroom for a little while if anyone wants to play a league game.

khalidqasrawi 175, Chooselife 169

I did save the screenshots and have a few minutes to write up the game.

The game started with Chooselife dominating the board for the first 15 moves. I had an early success with the dragon with an annoying series of forced steps that had me equal on the city in the middle with my fairy on my meeple (+3) and get the cloister. That evened things up. I then started the battle for the farm which persisted for the whole of the rest of the game. Then Chooselife started building the mega city. It carried on getting bigger with a major battle for me to keep him from finishing it and me to attack. My heart totally sank when he placed the final piece on that city. I had one thought: win the farm at all costs. So we played on. In the final few moves the dragon got very busy and we ended up equal on the farm and I was super surprised to have won.

So for all the games big battles during the game, the points breakdown shows that the cloisters won it and yet they just weren't on my radar.
A very tough and tense game.
Thanks Chooselife.

MrNumbers vs. Kettlefish
198:157

MrNumbers / kettlefish

with one of the last few tiles MrNumbers was lucky and finished the big city on the left side. Two times I put his meeple away from that city (1x with dragon and 1x with the princess) but he was always lucky and got the right tiles to place again a meeple into that city.

MrNumbers had placed two meeple on the big farm. I put one away with the dragon.
And I was lucky with my last tile - I joined the big farm with my meeple.

But MrNumbers got more volcano tiles and dragon tiles - so my meeple have been eaten very often by the dragon...
And the princess put my meeple away from the city at the bottom of the landscape.

I will be available from about 8:30pm CET tonight if anyone is keen for a league match.

I might be around tonight, although it could be a bit later. I'll check in when I'm free and see if anyone is available.

kettlefish 206 - Chooselife 183

It was a hard fight for the big farm. The dragon ate many meeple from Chooselife and from me. Chooselife was happy to join with the 3rd meeple into the farm with one of the last few tiles. I had only two meeple there.

As always it was a great game - the dragon is fat now - the princess did her job in the cities and the fairy protected often the meeple and gave many fairy points.

This expansion is so great.

Chooselife · « **Reply #26 on:** January 24, 2016, 11:05:17 AM »

Greatly played by kettlefish my only hope was to try and sack the meeple on the big city but the last princess tile came to late. More than a just winner.

Rich_The_Fish · « **Reply #27 on:** January 24, 2016, 11:21:28 AM »

Apologies, but I'm not going to be around tonight after all - still trying to fix my neighbours laptop.

kettlefish · « **Reply #28 on:** January 24, 2016, 11:37:03 AM »

jungleboy is online in the chatroom - he wants to play a league game.
But I have no more time today for playing a league game.

MrNumbers - will you play a league game ?

Halfling 168 -

Chuck 133

Another loss for me...

The Dragon came very late in the game, even the last drawn tile made him move.
The game was even most of the time, I was able to put a farmer on the big farm early, and he made it through the entire game.
But Halfling was able to put two farmers on the farm too, so I had to struggle to get another meeple in. With one of the last tiles, I was able to made the farm even, but Halfling had the farm on the bottom. Meanwhile he was able to get ahead with about 10 Points. But I got back at him thanks to a road and the fairy.
He took almost all of the cloisters, and that was the point difference in the end.

Thanks for the good game, Halfling!
