Board Games
Blue Kitty:
I just remembered the Uncle Wiggly board game that I used to play with my mom back in the day
Emperor Norton:
My brother and his gf came over! We played Pandemic first.
We had cured the blue disease and completely eradicated it, cured yellow, and someone had the cards and was just moving to the research station to cure black...
But then there was a cascade of outbreaks and we lost. I think had we played a bit more conservative and used the quarantine specialist better we could have won, but we took one too many risks. Still fun game, and I am looking forward to playing it again.
After that, we played a 3 player game of Space Hulk: Death Angel. AND WE WON! Pretty spectacularly too, my brother had one of his two combat teams wiped out, and I lost half of one of mine, but out of the 6 combat teams who went in, 4 1/2 came out the other side! We had a lot of back and forth on strategy and who could do what, and after playing it again with multiple people, I realize just how it hits all the right parts of a coop game. We were constantly talking, planning, and trying to position everything in the best way.
Still yet to play from my last purchase: Wrath of Ashardalon, The Resistance.

I do love Pandemic, but sometimes, the cards fall wrong and the game can be unwinnable.

Just had the exact opposite problem on our second playthrough. By the time we had cured blue, there had only been one blue card even drawn. It was eradicated by the about the third turn. And it was all downhill for the diseases after that.
During the last phases we had 3 diseases completely eradicated and had cleared the last few off the board before curing the last one. I think it helps that it was a two player game and the two roles we drew were Medic and Scientist, which both seem badass.

I had to look up quarantine specialist since it's part of the new edition and that just made me want to either upgrade my set or sell it and get a new one. Curse you for having fun. :wink:

Sounds like you need to ramp up the difficulty next game. Can't have you saving the world EVERY game. :evil:
