Yeah, that's true...

2009 January+February 45 games played. 2010 - 63 games. 2011 - 69. 2012 - 90. 2013 - 68 games. And this year it's... 31 games. Out of these 15 were Risk Legacy, so the actual number is even smaller, 16. Kinda sad. Must try harder! :-)

I got Risk Legacy as birthday gift, so it was quite natural to start the year by playing it. 15 games were played in 6 sessions within two months. And it's quite fun, for a Risk, and - it's main virtue - short to play. Sometimes we managed to play 3 (once even 4) games during one 4-5 hour session. One envelope was also left unopened... so there is still some replayability left! I'm not sure I'd play it 2-3-4 times in a row anymore... but occasionally, why not.

Also managed to play one 1830: Railways & Robber Barons. Runaway leader (in terms of company value) paid out dividends like there was no tomorrow and when inevitable (purchase of first Diesel) happened, game ended with banktruptcy for that player. Like a textbook example :) But if that player would've succeeded in avoiding bankruptcy, things would've gotten quite interesting, as another player received from him presidency of company with (another) brand new Diesel. This, in addition to her own company, would have made quite a difference.

Copycat. I seem to like Friese's designs and this is not an exception. It's worker placement with parts from Agricola, Through the Ages and Dominion - and it's quite fun.

Indonesia - more I play it, more I like it. I don't know why but so far in all three games I have played, I've always been in charge of shipping companies most of the time. This also means that my development options are quite limited but it's still interesting. I'd also say that this game should be played always with maximum players as it speeds up gameplay (in terms of rounds) and also creates more tension/interaction.
