Two Classics in One Night Citadels
For the last game night of the year we pulled out two classics. One is a favorite of the Knights and might have been our most played game this year, Garrett’s final count of the year will tell the tale. Medici is the auction set collection game of choice at 6 players in my opinion and this was a very interesting play through. If you told me you could win this game without winning a single auction of the gold card I would have had a hard time believing it. However, neither the first place player or the second place player won the gold card in any of the three rounds. Was a great and tight game actually one of the best for bidding strategy I think I have seen. I have the picture of the final board but I could not remember the 5th and 6th place player to color association so I took a guess. Eric or Steve let me know if this is right if you remember? Congratulations are also in order as Scott gets his first win at game night well done.

For this game night the group played the game Lord’s of Vegas a 2010 release from Mayfair Games. The theme for the night was building the iconic casinos of Sin City from it’s earliest days. The game starts with zero casinos on the strip, just a bunch of mom and pop shops and parking lots.
