Received Stacraft the boardgame for Xmas this year and looking to try this game out. It looks like it plays a lot like Twilight Imperium which I know we have enjoyed in the past. We have 2 players (Pandoragreen and myself) so far but are looking for up to 4 more, as these games are always better with more players. The game will be hosted at my place Saturday night, starting at 7:00. Will plan on ordering Pizza from Sarduchis so please bring along some cash if you want in on that (usually works out to $7-$10 each). Please bring your own beverages. We have a sitter so there won't be any baby interuptions. As the event is being hosted at my place, only people I have personally met and gamed with before are invited to join. No offense to anyone on here I haven't met personally, but we have had some bad experiences with strangers in our place before that I don't want to repeat. If you want more info on Stacraft, you can check out the rules here: www.fantasyflightgames.com/PDF/StarCraft_rules.pdfDue to this being a Fantasy Flight game and the fact the rules remind me of Twilight Imperium I expect it to be a long game. This will compound with the fact that for at most if not all of us it will be the first time playing. Please RSVP by replying here or sending me a PM. If we get 4 more I will post here noting the game is full.

Unfortunately baby Gwen has come down with a rash on her legs and back that will preclude her going to her Grandparents this weekend. Thus we will have to put this on hold at least for now. Next time we have a baby free night perhaps I will try to set up another game as I really want to try this out. Pandora and I may give it a go, the 8 hour interupted by upset baby version, which won't quite be the same.
Sorry those planning to attend, this wasn't something we expected.

Man, a bit behind the times, the original date for the game was in January. To tell you the truth I can't even remember if we ever did play. I think just Pandora and I tried it out.
Now I would actually like to get together and get some use out of this game. Maybe this weekend would work as it's not a D&D weekend. We should be Free Friday for sure, potentially Saturday.
Anyone other then Talon interested?

We do have plans Saturday, as I thought we might. Friday should work. Say 8:00PM till whenever. Gwen should be sound asleep by then, and usually sleeps until the next morning.
You can play 6 players, though the game recommends 4, so if we had Lobo, Oddzilla, Talon, Wen, Myself and Pandora we would max it out.
Let me know if you guys can make it Friday and I'll start reviewing the rules etc.

Wow seems this game is destined to not happen. Back in January it was a rash on Gwen's legs and back that was determined to be nothing big. Now it's a new rash, but unfortunately this time it's Measles, which she got from the damned immunization shot that's supposed to prevent her from getting them.
Now she is definately contageous and will still be on Friday but, pretty much every Canadian is vacinated when a kid. So it's up to you guys. If you got shot up like most of us when you were a kid, or if you had measles as some point, you don't have anything to worry about. I understand if we have to cancel this one.

i think we'll pass then, measles could seriously dampen our plans 4 the next couple of weeks

Got an email from Talon, he's passing as well. Guess this one will have to wait. Maybe we can go a shorter distance then 6 months before trying to plan this again. Will let you guys know when things are healthier at our place.
