The year is 1888, and Steampunk technology has advanced at a prodigious rate! Probes have been sent to Mars, and soon astronauts will be manning rockets in order to mine the planet for newly discovered resources. The first is a brand new element, Celerium, that could prove to be a combustible energy source the likes man has never seen. The second is Sylvanite, an incredibly dense material unlike anything found on earth. In addition to these resources, glaciers have been discovered on the planet. Whoever controls these icy masses could work to create a livable atmosphere on Mars In Mission: Red Planet, players work as mining companies compete to send astronauts to Mars in order to colonize and mine for recently discovered materials. Over the course of 10 rounds, players play one of their special agents every round to help fill the rockets heading to Mars with their own astronauts while simultaneously working to prevent their opponents from doing the same. Once landed, these astronauts must gather to control specific regions of the planet, each yielding one of the three resources: Celerium, Sylvanite, or Ice. After rounds 5 and 8, players gain score tokens for every region where they control the majority of the astronauts. At the end of the game, players score one final time, adding any bonuses received from Discovery Cards and Bonus Cards. The player with the most score tokens at the end controls Mars, and all the riches it can bring!

A forgotten evil stirs in the ancient land of Varisia. Dark magic once more thrums amid crumbling ruins, giants gather in titanic armies, cultists murder in the name of foul deities, and maniacal goblins plot a fiery end for the peaceful town of Sandpoint. Launch a campaign to strike back against the evils plaguing Varisia with the Pathfinder Adventure Card Game. This complete cooperative strategy card game pits 1 to 6 heroes against the traps, monsters, deadly magic, and despicable foes of the Pathfinder Roleplaying Game's award-winning Rise of the Runelords Adventure Path. In this game players take the part of a fantasy character such as a rogue or wizard, each with varying skills and proficiencies that are represented by the cards in their deck. The classic ability scores (Strength, Dexterity, etc.) are assigned with different sized dice. Players can acquire allies, spells, weapons, and other items. The goal is to find and defeat a villain before a certain number of turns pass, with the villain being represented by its own deck of cards complete with challenges and foes that must be overcome. Characters grow stronger after each game, adding unique gear and awesome magic to their decks, and gaining incredible powers, all of which they'll need to challenge greater threats in a complete Pathfinder Adventure Card Game Adventure Path.

The object of Power Grid is to supply the most cities with power when someone's network gains a predetermined size. In this new edition, players mark pre-existing routes between cities for connection, and then bid against each other to purchase the power plants that they use to power their cities. However, as plants are purchased, newer, more efficient plants become available, so by merely purchasing, you're potentially allowing others access to superior equipment. Additionally, players must acquire the raw materials (coal, oil, garbage, and uranium) needed to power said plants (except for the 'renewable' windfarm/ solar plants, which require no fuel), making it a constant struggle to upgrade your plants for maximum efficiency while still retaining enough wealth to quickly expand your network to get the cheapest routes.

I can't make it this week. But Mission: red planet looks pretty cool.

I'm in for pathfinder.

I'll go all in Dennis Rodman style on Power Grid Korea!

Yes please on Tzolkin, right here! I've seen it out sever :lolal times at Chewsday, looks like my kind of game.

I will sign up for Pathfinder.

I'll bring Krosmaster Arena (http://boardgamegeek.com/boardgame/112138/krosmaster-arena). 2 players, 60 minutes. I'll start one game at 6:30, and one game at 7:30.

Sorry Marc but I just realized when I opened my tzolkin game that  the back of the boards r ripped really bad  waiting for new  game board to come in sorry hopefully will b able to get it in soon   So take of tzolkin off the list

Actually, just found out I wouldn't be able to play it this Chewsday anyway, so that works out. Sucks that your board is hosed, though.

Just making a note that tonight is League night for Risk Legacy B) We're probably going to stat around 6:30-7:00;  it's already full, I'm afraid, but I want to post to indicate my attendance.

I will also be attending and am part of the risk legacy league

Please sign up Wendy j for power grid Korea

Sign me up for red planet, good to be able to make it to Chewsday again-Jeff

could you sign me up for mission red planet

I'm not registered for any game, but I do plan on being at CC tomorrow.

I will put Alex Dearborn into the last spot of Mission Red.

I am planning to be there tonight. I think Colin and I are going to be playing Carson City around 8:30-ish, I am not sure what I will bring for the earlier slot yet...

Wonder if I should bring Kros or not. Hmm. Maybe I'll just bring it and set it up, see if anyone's not in anything. I'll bring some smaller games as well.
