If you would like to schedule a game. Please post in this event thread with the following information:
Name of the game, when you would like to start, The duration of the game, and the number of players it can accommodate.
VERY IMPORTANT NOTICE:
Boston Pizza has informed us that this event falls on their 50th anniversary. They are celebrating with some special discounts and expect a large turnout. Our group will be confined to the designated playing area and will not be able to spill into the restaurant for gaming.
We have never had to turn gamers away before, but be warned, the gaming area is on a first come first serve basis. Also, we ask that people only use as much gaming area as they need and make room for other gamers. As always, we ask that people dine outside of the designated gaming area.
Thanks for your understanding and let's wish Boston Pizza a VERY HAPPY ANNIVERSARY!!!
I'm going to bring Ghost Stories (4 Players Co-op, 120 min, 6:30pm), and a bunch of smaller games that take from 15-45 minutes for the evening including Rockband Manager (as we didn't get to that one last week), Yomi, Lords of War, Seventh Hero, Ninja Dice and Villages - if anyone is interested in trying any of them.
(https://sask.games/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fcf.geekdo-images.com%2Fimages%2Fpic1790243_md.jpg&hash=aaef738e4251c218cf32e25c4c57bd44651c5ff5) | Ghost Stories is a cooperative game in which the players protect the village from incarnations of the lord of hell – Wu-Feng – and his legions of ghosts before they haunt a town and recover the ashes that will allow him to return to life. Each Player represents a Taoist monk working together with the others to fight off waves of ghosts.
The players, using teamwork, will have to exorcise the ghosts which will appear during the course of the game. At the beginning of his turn, a player brings a ghost into play and places it on a free spot, and more than one can come in at the same time. The ghosts all have abilities of their own – some affecting the Taoists and their powers, some causing the active player to roll the curse die for a random effect, and others haunting the villager tiles and blocking that tile's special action. On his turn, a Taoist can move on a tile in order to exorcise adjacent ghosts or to benefit from the villager living on the tile, providing it is not haunted. Each tile of the village allows the players to benefit from a different bonus. With the cemetery, for example, Taoists can bring a dead Taoist back to life, while the herbalist allows to recover spent Tao tokens, etc. It will also be possible to get traps or move ghosts or unhaunt other village tiles.
To exorcise a ghost, the Taoist rolls three Tao dice with different colors: red, blue, green, yellow, black, and white. If the result of the roll matches the color(s) of the ghost or incarnation of Wu-Feng, the exorcism succeeds. The white result is a wild color which can be used as any color. For example, to exorcise a green ghost with 3 resistance, you need to roll three green, three white, or a combination of both. If your die rolls fall short, you can also use Tao tokens that match the color in addition to your roll. You may choose to use these after your roll. Taoists gain these tokens by using certain village tiles or by exorcising certain ghosts. One of the Taoists has a power that allows him to receive such a token once per turn.
To win, the players must defeat the incarnation of Wu-Feng, a boss who arrives at the end of the game. There are also harder difficulty levels that add more incarnations of Wu-Feng, in which to win, you must defeat all of them. There are many more ways to lose, however. The players lose if three of the village's tiles are haunted, if the draw pile is emptied while the incarnation of Wu-Feng is still in play, or if all the priests are dead.

I'll sign up for Ghost Stories. Can't go wrong with Antoine Bauza.
I should be in attendance, just not sure when yet.
Sign me up for ghost stories Nicole
Ghost stories is only 4 players, so only one spot is left open.
Alright, I won't be there until 7:30 again. How about... Legendary? Yeah, let's do Legendary for 7:30. The game says five people, but it can be adjusted for more.
