End of Game Statements

Kevin Wilson (PIKES):   How many cards left in the draw pile?  (GM:  There were 11 cards remaining.)  After switching my personality, I was Vimes so trying to use the decks up.  And, of course, I got 2 in the draw this time that would have removed 2 trouble markers so had we made it back to me, I could have kept it alive a little longer, maybe.

Congrats to Bill, nice surge to win.  That event really put it in play.  Fun as usual.  Lots of chaos.  Still a lot of fun.

Thanks to Chris, as usual, for running the game. 

Christopher Hunt (Harga's Gang):  Well won.  Thanks foot Chris as ever for his help.  Enjoyable but as ever I had no strategy and the msiplayed my cards.

Bill Scharf (Coriolis):  As usual, the game was a blast to play, thanks for running it. As for winning, I was just standing there as the bus drove by.

Early in the game I thought Christopher was ventenari, he was pushing minions all over the board and didn’t seem interested in area control. I thought Andy was a lord or maybe the troll...unlikely because he didn’t go for the properties that gave you money...and towards the end of the game I switched to ventenari for him....nine areas! Kevin I had no idea...vimes maybe because I couldn’t see his strategy....but he could have been anybody.   

Personality Card Reveal

Christopher drew Lord Selachii.  Andy drew Crysoprase.  Kevin originally drew Lord de Worde, but used Zorgo to change that to Commander Vimes.  Bill was Dragon King of Arms.
