Either Tiny Epic Galaxies or Tiny Epic Western with the wife. I also might run the Lock n Load Tactical demo that I have.

All the FLGSs here are doing something.  I'm going to skip it as places that normally accommodate 15 are letting in 50+.  That much pudgy nerd flesh rubbing up against itself?  Nothing good can result.

I'll be heading over to the FLGS for a day of gaming.  I'm bringing Clank! and hope to score the promo cards for it.  Well also be bringing Santorini and Trajan.

Happy International Tabletop Day! Now, what board game do I want to buy myself as a present?  :dreamer:

I'm walking a thin line but I did purchase Santorini yesterday on a trip out of town.  Fun abstract game.  We will see what the FLGS has in stock, but I have a few on the list that I know they won't have so that's good for the wallet.

Gaming time is limited this weekend so I'll be likely playing some Lee at Gettysburg and taking 1754 for a couple of more spins for review. May try to talk my wife into a game of Sagrada and/or Santorini.

I went a little crazy and bought three games (Deep Space D-6 Dice Game, Friday, GMT Game's Washington's War The American Revolution) and a few packs of Ultimate Guard Precise Fit Sleeves.  :D

I'm trying to justify buying Munchkin Steampunk when I'm basically broke 'til the end of the summer

Time for a Lufthansa heist to feed the gaming addiction!   :arr:

4 X Santorini
2 X Clank!
1 X Dixit
1 X Viticulture
1 X MtG

Not too bad a day of boardgaming plus I scored the Clank! Promo card and a sweet Agricola button.

Sounds like a great day, Bison. 

The closest I got to a game store today was the discount games section at Five Below.

I went down to pick up some mark fit for decals as it was scheduled to come in yesterday.  Didn't realize there was an X-Wing tournament scheduled.  Place was packed!  (and no mark fit in stock....)

I didn't buy anything.  I'm still waiting on my copy of B-17 from the Kickstarter.  Still hasn't even arrived in the UK to be shipped back to Canada.  Never again....DVG can suck it!

Sorry man, I wish you had the chance to do some gaming.

It was a really enjoyable day for the daughters and I.

Looked into it but I couldn't get time off that week as someone else already booked it.  Maybe next year.
