[OT] Railscamp Tassie and boardgames

[Daryl Manning]

One of the things I really love about Railscamp evenings is the fact that more than a few game geeks drag some of their faves along to play in the evenings. It's where I discovered Werewolf with which I now have a deeply unhealthy relationship (and encourage you to play if you've never done so before...).

So, just wondering if people are thinking of bringing some interesting boardgames along this time (Cataan, G Annihilation, Zombies: LNOE etc)? Anything @DefectiveYeti has ever endorsed really is probably something I'd be interested in playing if you're on the fence about throwing something in your luggage.

I'm  planning on bringing my poker set since I've already been called out so if people are interested in a single table tourney like last time I'll be running one so just trying to gauge interest  (... we'll need someone to bring another set if we want say, a two table tourney etc). 

And I'll have a werewolf pack with me... As I'm sure will many others... (@pat, @ryanbigg etc). I imagine Durak will also be in full swing if you want to give a hand at that.

ciao !

I've got some Cards Against Humanity I was thinking of bringing. Might bring a couple of Magic Decks (lol) and if I can fit it - Bang! Settlers is fun as well, I think I'll have the version on my iPad (much more portable than the full game). Oh, and munchkin. I'll bring that. I have a lot of card games :P

All we need are playing cards!

Always up for a game of 500 or contact rummy. Happy to teach if anyone is interested.

I can bring a few things. Anything that's won Spiel des Jahres is usually a good bet (Settlers, Dominion etc).

[Daryl Manning]

Hmmmm... like it. Sounds dangerous... and there are lasers... like challenges are brain duels *to the death*... =]

[Daryl Manning]

Dominion and settlers would be most welcome. Both ones I want to play.

I had Pandemic but it's back in Canada at mo. Interesting game tho. Hard to beat even cooperatively.

Anyone got Zombies: Last Night on Earth? I've heard good things...

CaH sounds great. I remember a similar game called LunchMoney (or something) I played way back. Was awesome.

Hey Ben, I've been really wanting to play cards against humanity but forget to get a deck before the camp. Please bring!

Link for LunchMoney. Was cool. Would love to play again if anyone's got it.

Actually,just to be a bit smarter, if everyone who is bringing a game to RC Tas can just throw it up on the google docs spreadsheet, probably a much better way to see who is bringing what (and what people would be interested in playing - added bounty list... )

Kirill can teach you Durak. If I remember correctly, it is a game without winners, only losers. You may even wind up writing specs for his project. I think it's part of his evil plan.

I have a copy of Pandemic, will bring that along. Also Fluxx, and a few other card games. I've been keen to try Dominion for awhile now, if anyone finds a copy to bring along :)

[Daryl Manning]

Pandemic is great. I *totally* distracted my entire dysfunctional family over Xmas getting us to play that cooperatively. Love the mechanics of how well it plays (and the math is pretty interesting too). Tried to build something similar off of it, but bit of an abandoned project now. 

(my friend loves FLuxx... if you've got the "zombie fluxx" extension, it's pretty good.).
