[boardgames] Russian Trawlers and Res Publica

I'm a bit behind on my game reports. I plead a dose of the dreaded lurgy that laid [personal profile] sammywol low. We played cards last Wednesday when our assembled brainpower couldn't decide on a boardgame. We choose Russian Trawlers, as Oh Hell is know in our family. Sam won on 43 points I think, I came second on 40 points, [personal profile] alaimacerc came third and [personal profile] irishkate fourth, but I'm not sure of their scores. None of us really covered ourselves in glory. Sam was just a bit better at estimating her likely take of tricks, and most of the points in the game came from bids of zero.

Last night we had [personal profile] alaimacerc round and played Knizia's Res Publica. It's card trading and melding game with a pair of decks representing tribes and technological advances. I'm not normally much cop at it but did alright last night mostly through lucky draws I think. Final scores Myles 37, Sam 33, [personal profile] alaimacerc 30.
