End of Game Statements
Dave Hooton: This was quite a squeaker. I didn't intend to play a shipping strategy, but that's how the situation worked out. This game was unusual in that only one big building was bought. In part, it was due to my church making 2-point buildings being more cost-effective for me.
Christopher Hunt: Congraulations Dave, well played. Firstly my continued thanks to Chris H for GMing the game so well and for coping with our dumb ass moves based on misreading the rules.
Chris Geggus: Thanks Chris and well played Dave - a real corker! Just finished 1 turn too early for me (as usual). 'Til the next one
