Back to the Two Brewers on a muggy night, for the third meeting of
this
Meetup-based
boardgames group.
With eight of us present, we played some "big" games that don't
work as well with smaller groups. We started the evening with The
Resistance, one I haven't had out much lately; since most of us had
played it before, I ran it in Avalon mode with the Assassin Module
out of the Hidden Agenda expansion (Commander, False Commander,
Bodyguard, Assassin). The two novices were both spies, but it was
still a pretty close game, just barely ending up with a Rebel victory.
Next was
Bang! The Dice Game,
my third play; it's still not one that I'm likely to buy, but I
enjoyed it more this time than last. Having player elimination is a
game feature I generally dislike, but the rounds do at least get
faster as players are wiped out.
Finally, a couple of rounds of
Codenames,
which I'll admit is growing on me. I even played as spymaster for one
of them, and while I may have been a bit obscure at times we did just
about pull off a win.
