I'll be available in an hour or so if you're still around Rich. Edit: probably more like 1.5 hours.
Sorry for my absence in the last days, but I am sick. Fever, cough, you name it, I got it. I hope to be back in action in the next days....Reading here via tapatalk, so I can see how my oponents are doing! ;-)
There had been a long running battle for control of the city towards the west edge of the board (containing the monastery). Initially it looked like I’d be outnumbered 1:2, but the dragon had helped remove a couple of knights leaving it vacant. I took a bit of a gamble and placed a meeple in the virtually finished city thinking that even if it wasn’t completed it was still worth 13 points (at the time jungleboy commented that it was a big move and that it could end up being decisive). However, he hadn’t given up on it and used a portal to claim an edge on a FFFC tile, meaning that we’d share the spoils if a FFCC tile was drawn and placed. The dragon had been sitting just 2 tiles away from my knight for quite some time, so I kept moving the fairy to protect my follower and hoped that one of the few remaining dragon tiles wasn’t going to be drawn. As it happened, I got lucky (again) and the exact tile that I needed (with the lovely Princess) appeared, meaning that I could finish the city and claim all the points! It was now 134 v 109 with 17 tiles to go.
Get well soon Chuck!
I hope to find some of the other princesses in the chatroom now, because now I have some spare time. I don't know what about later, since I don't know, what Mrs. Chuck and Little Chuck have in mind for me later on...
