November 2010 Game Night


Taking a look at Rio Grande Games' Carcassonne. Don't place that farmer way out there!	A new favorite-- Shadows Over Camelot. Is this the face of a traitor? Hint: YES!	"Why does everyone think I'm a traitor?" "For the same reason your mom always thinks you're guilty."


Opening a new box-- Gangsters!	Shadows over Camelot got three plays this night! It's GOT to be good!	Consult the Book of ~~Armaments~~ rules!


Memoir '44 is a terrific, easily accessible hex-based wargame. Here's some six-player madness!	Lord of the Rings Risk... a truce is only s strong as the will of the player who made it!	Taking Omaha Beach, two movement points at a time.


Some of the games available at KABGA events.	"If I went around, saying I was an Emperor just because some moistened bint had lobbed a scimitar at me, they'd put me away!"	And now, my Mumakil will stomp on your puny little horsemen! Pew-pew!

October 2010 Game Day at the Kokomo/Howard County Library


A new game from Assa Games-- Conquest of the Fallen Lands! Lots of fun, and easy to learn!	Trying to maximize points on the last turns of the game...	A small selection of games available at KABGA events.


Our first experience of Betrayal at House on the Hill. This would obviously be the "BETRAYAL" part!!!	"I will now move my Horse Lords here and wipe out your army."

September 2010 Game Night


Risk: Halo Wars edition	The classic 1980s Shogun, later known as Samurai Swords. Terrific wargame!	Playing Smallworld. Notice the tubs of games in the background... these represent half of the games available to KABGA members.

July brought a record number of first-timers to our club!	Our first "Smallworld" experience	Wait... Axis & Allies... at KABGA? Wow, who would've thunk it?!



Risk 2210 is one of the club's favorite "simpler" games.	Truly satisfying... six hours in to TI.	The "home system formerly owned by the gray player..." and blue's last two pieces on the board!

June 2010 Game Night


Our first club experience with Age of Empires III: the Age of Discovery	This is the next merchant ship Nick will win. Because he wins them all.	Four KABGA members who love little plastic colonists!


	Somehow, we always wind up with a game of Axis and Allies somewhere in the room!

May 2010 Game Night


Arkham Horror... monster surges are bad...	Which is cooler... the mirror shades or the black fedora?	If Arkham Horror players are smiling, the game must be going VERY well!


	Puerto Rico... ship corn, ship corn, ship corn!

Drawing yet another young person into the Axis & Allies tradition!	Taking another look at a new favorite-- Arkham Horror	Getting started with Shogun, 2006 edtion

"Hmmm... I don't think the 'wooden stick' is going to prevent me from getting sucked into this gate..."	"Tora! Tora! Tora!"
