Not much to report from Euroquest, mostly played the new stuff I got from Essen. Final tally of games played: 2 de Mayo, Agricola (x2), Alhambra, Galaxy Trucker, Keltis (x2), Race for the Galaxy (x3), Royal Palace, San Juan, Snow Tails (x4), St. Petersburg (x2), Tin Lizzies, Vegas Showdown, Vikings. I'm not sure how I managed not to play Dominion, I think there were at least 5-6 games of it going on at all times.
Only one new to me was Royal Palace, which sort of felt like an advanced Louis XIV - you compete for influence in different sections of the palace which allows you to attract nobles to your cause, some of which have special abilities, some are just worth lots of points - there is a somewhat bewildering number of options, would like to play again but not rushing out to buy it.
Edit: While we're at it, a reminder that I have a GCOM-Brunswick session planned for next Saturday (11/15).
