Looks like I get to report on it before Jeffe mocks me. He had his chance..
We met at his place yesterday, then after shooting the breeze and looking at a couple things we headed down to Game Parlour in Woodbridge to play some games (possibly to pick up a random player, but that never happened).
We played soem Diceland (the Ogre set has a weird balance, but I think by mixing sets and making sure the Ogre player has more than just the Ogre you'll do ok -- heck you can do that without mixing sets.) There are some cool effects, and if you were willing to buy 4 or packs of it, you could have a really cool 48 pt army of GEV's that could conceivably come into play all in one turn, which would really cause a headache for the Ogre player.
After that we tested Atlas' Dungeoneer game. It's a lot like Dungeon (the board game) except that the board morphs as you go and it has a competing quest system. It was kinda fun, and yes, I won this game too.
We then headed back to Jeffe's and played a round of Mad Scientist (imagine, Jeffe owning such a game!) about world domination. I came pretty darn close to losing this one, but I came through with a nice draw in the end and grabbed Australia with a multi-card combo, making me 3/0 for the day. Yay!
Now, Jeffe might feed you a lot of lines about how bad a driver I am, with reports on poorly timed gear changes, or turning too fast, or a stall, or a bunny hop. Don't listen to him. He's just jealous.
