Good weekend

[mikekn]

Had nice weekend filled with hanging out and playing games. Friday was the evil D&D campaign with complexated, hairness, catanache, shetiyah and Karl. We encountered our good counterparts, who were...interesting... I think a little deus ex machina (deus ex DM?) kept us from killing them outright, but we know they'll be back.

Saturday was Philly Area gamers. It was my first time a the new location (McKenzies brewpub). The food was good and the beer decent, but we were pressured on time (had to be out before 5). I managed to get in a game of Alhambra Dice and regular Alhambra. The dice game is fun, and has a good bit of strategy for a dice game (not that I applied it very well). The regular Alhambra went pretty fast due to the number of people we had playing, and again I wasn't able to successfully put any real strategy into play. After the games were done, I went up to my brother-in-law's place to catch the end of his birthday party. Lots of Wii-playing going on (but mostly by the adults!).

Sunday was a different D&D game with lots of laughter. After that I went over to hairness & complexated's place to watch the Superbowl. I didn't care who won, so I was just there to enjoy the game, the commercials and the company. All three delivered quite nicely :)

Look a bonus!
Currently in the CD changer:
1. Future Bible Heroes - Eternal Youth
2. The Decemberists - Her Majesty
3. They Might Be Giants - The Else
4. Suzanne Vega - Beauty & Crime
5. Johnny Cash - American Recordings
6. Voltaire - Boo Hoo
A completely pointless bonus!

our good counterparts

Did they have reverse goatees?

Ya know, I don't think they did. I'll have to get their descriptions again.

Evil campaigns are fun for a change of pace. I did one once and had a fun time. Hope you enjoy yours. And don't forget where you bury the bodies...];)

Bury them? And waste all that meat?

i'm not sure there is quite enough left to eat when we're done with them....

But its too late to season them AFTER the fireball! You need to hit them with a splash marinade weapon first, then fireball/scorching ray to an internal temperature of 135 for halflings, 150 for orcs.

Actually we've modified the acid spells to include the seasoning, that way we can tenderize and season all in one shot.
