[Casual] flagrantangles vs Dreamfire

[bansa]

New job? Congrats?! I lived in NYC too. I was in Morningside. Upperwest. Tell us more about your move to New York! Exciting!

[bansa]

Dreamfire is ever stronger after two years of absence. He is undefeated since his return

I would have picked something else if I knew he was going to bring daymare upon us.

[Dreamfire]

@flagrantangles GG WP! I think that’s the first time I’ve managed to pull off a tech 1 purple rush
I’m up for another game if you are, P1T1 posted below.

@bansa Thanks. I’m moving with my partner, she’s starting a master’s at NYU. I’ll keep doing what I do here, which is slowly hacking at my PhD…

Edit: removed tech 1 as per Bomber’s comment.

I want to have enough gold to play Fargo + Nullcraft next turn, so it’s gotta be Plexus rather than Mox.

@flagrantangles’s turn!

[bansa]

Cool! Well, good luck with your move. NYC is an exciting place to be. It will prolly keep you busy that you won’t have time for Codex anymore.

Well, let’s block off spells + Battle Suits and then also tax buildings. That seems fine.

@Dreamfire’s turn!

[Bryce_The_Rice]

Uhh not enough workers for that building chief.

[Bryce_The_Rice]

San Diego? Do you know Leontes?

[Dreamfire]

@Bryce_The_Rice

Uhh not enough workers for that building chief.

Right you are! I’ll just float 1 instead, @flagrantangles does that change your turn?

[flagrantangles]

It does not!

Playing Geiger over Fargo to increase odds of drawing a Stewardess.

@Bomber678

San Diego? Do you know Leontes?

You introduced him to me when I joined the forum.

San Diego players

I’m a casual player who’ve only played kitchen table games with my brother-in-law. I really enjoyed the game and want to find other players as he is no longer in town. Just joined this forum to see if there are any local meetups in San Diego area. Nearest place to me is At Ease Games although I’ve only been there a couple times and don’t know anyone.
