I believe the directions state that cards are played/acted out in order of the draw. That's the way we play anyway and makes sense. That game is brutal even if you get a good board from the onset. Fun with a good crowd. Love the co-ops.

Last night we played El Grande, which was kind of meh in my opinion. It didn't really click as well as other games.
We also played a round of Last Night on Earth which I thought was pretty fun. The heroes pulled out a very tight win.

Had some friends over on Sunday night and played a round of Formula D. Pretty fun risk/reward dice game.

Last night did a round of Dominion which I lost hard because I thought it was a lot longer game. Then we played Ticket to Ride and I came in third after leading the whole time (didn't take enough routes). Then we played Carcassone and I tied for first.

Played a bunch of Resistance last night. It was my second time playing the game and up until the third round last night I had never been a resistance player (always picked a spy card). I did actually play as resistance twice last night, twice...So out of ~15 rounds of the game I've been a spy 13 times...Someone better at math should do the probabilities of that. Granted you would need the number of players both times, but I don't remember.

Game night tonight! We played a game of El Grande wherein I, realizing I was locked for third no matter what I did, catapulted my girlfriend into first place much to the chagrin of my friend who would have otherwise won.
Then we played Elder Sign, a stupidly complicated but pretty fun co-op game. We barely pulled off a win again Cthulu.

Played "Pandemic" for the first time tonight. None of us had played before, so we started with only 4 epidemic cards in the deck. We actually had no outbreaks the entire game, but still lost due to running out of player cards. Losing this way sucked and was kind of mind-boggling, but it kind of keyed us into the strategy of the game. Sometimes you just have to let some of the outbreaks occur and develop more research facilities. Fun game, but the more I play co-ops, the more I realize that you are suppose to lose the majority of the time.

I am not super big on Pandemic, especially after playing
Flash Point: Fire Rescue
, which I think does a much better job of creating a fun-but-out-of-control scenario.
If your gaming groups ever get into higher numbers, I also recommend Kickstarting
Two Rooms and a Boom
, which looks like a lot of fun as well.

Yeah, we never have groups this big. My typical group is 4-5. I've Kickstarted a few others including Moby Dick (
http://www.kickstarter.co...or-the-card-game?ref=live
), Drum Roll (
http://www.kickstarter.co...l-the-board-game?ref=live
), and Salem (
http://www.kickstarter.co...ategy-board-game?ref=live
).
I've watched some video on Flash Point, but didn't know if it was something my group would be into. I'll do some more research.

If Rampage is out by then, that's definitely on my list. That looks sweet.

The wife and I were a little lit after my office party, so we stopped into a local coffee shop that was having game night. We won a game of Forbidden Island together and played about 4 games of Tsuro with some others
