Don’t know if I’ll be coming to the session, but I’ll have copies of Settlers of Katan (with 5-6 player expansion) and Citadels (the latter of which would be a better fit for one hour, and is an absolute blast). You can reach me at @historyshack.
[PS – I’d be down for playing afterwards, perhaps over some beer].

@Kimon: Food and beverage might be an appropriate accompaniment…if we can keep Tom from flipping the table when we clobber him.

@Nigel: Pit, now there’s a game I haven’t played in a while. Could be interesting to have it going on in the room with everything else.

If no one’s played it, I may consider bringing it because shouting in groups of people happens to be a great hobby of mine.

Wishing I had space in my carry-on for my favorite Eurogames, but none of them are playable in an hour anyways. 🙁
