Thursday Nights with Paul - November 1

An interesting week. I only saw one game on the tables, though multiple copies of it, and I got to play it:

Starcraft (Fantasy Flight Games) - Since everyone was new to the game and the game itself was fresh out of the plastic wrap along with being a pretty long game itself, we only had a chance to process 3 full game turns. In my game, there were 4 of us. I played Zerg as did another and we had 1 representative each from Terran and Protoss. I enjoyed the couple of turns, but don't really know where I stood in the overall score. Couldn't really get a feel for end game, though one of the players did get eliminated (sorry, Geoff). I'm sure that the setup would be completely different on my next playing of the game with experienced players. It feels like a decent reflection of the feeling of the video game. First stab at a rating = 5 pips.
