jackAnd then to games evening.
* We played Carcassonne. So that's what people were talking about. I thought I was losing, but at least we were playing fairly quickly, but then my farmersgained power and mana in proportion to the number of other farmers scored lots of points because I'd put one in the middle and made sure that field was connected all the cities everyone else was busily finishing. Sorry, Jacqy.
I should be able to make a Carcassonne fairly easily with a printer, glue, and cardboard, right, and could be trivially reworked to be a CTS game by painting orcs on stuff. Eg. Battle of the five armies, players become armies, roads become ridge lines, cities become spurs of mountain, farms become armies beseiging spurs of mountain, seminaries and the river bcome key events in the battle.
The other idea was you each represent a different chronicler, and everything was about making plot. (With the gameplay still modelled on an exisitng variant. For instance, no point using the same orientation of tiles to make things easy for old players.)

[1] "Fictional soap opera" -- you know what I mean :)
