Hi folks, I'm confirming (as pencilled in) that the next session will indeed be next Sun 11th Nov, 6 days from now; as usual 2.30 prompt till about 7.30. Pls...
Another brilliant session! 10 of us to start with, (including new member Attila, a vet from Essex, and previously from Hungary, with a very sharp mind.) So we...
I found this today. Thought I might share it with you. These were posted on an NZ Tourism Website and the answers are the actual responses by the website...
You can imagine the comment about cutlery 'probably' having a rational basis but the question doesn't reflect that - reminds me years ago reading an article...
There's a tip on BGG about TL Maxx selling cheap games. Picked up a copy of Perikles for £9.99. Not sure how good it is, but it has a fairly good BGG rating...
This may be of interest - http://www.em4miniatures.com/acatalog/Dice_.html Bought some dice from these people. Already have plenty of regular opaque (mainly...
Enter your vote today! A new poll has been created for the lbgc group: Perikles - Could everyone who has played this game please post a rating for the Club. o...

I gave Perikles 10 out of 10 in your poll, Neil. I think 6 of us have now played it, 4 of us have voted, and it's got two 10's and two 9's. Pretty good!...
Neil picked up a copy of Perikles for £9.99 from TKMaxx, yep that clothing store with branches in Uxbridge, Ealing, Hammersmith (King Street) etc. Yep,...
Oh, and I forgot to mention that it runs at 2-3 hours. A perfect medium-length for our club. It has a finite ending. It runs for 3 turns or wars, and then...
I've been on the look-out for a game that we could elevate into a game that we at LBGC play fairly often and can have a league and ratings on. It would be an...
Hi Bob, I think this is a great idea and one that I would very much like to see happen. Keeping the league games we play to a minimum is the only way to make...
Hi all For what its worth I like the idea of a league, particually a Formula De league as I think that sort of game is well suited to league play. Anyway thats...
Great, a couple of enthusiatic yeses. That'll do. For anyone who thinks it might be a bad idea (frequently having to play a game you don't like, or people...
Right, I've spent a fun hour or two playing at devising a scoring system etc. for a Perikles "league". I enjoy devising such things. I'm open to comment and...
Funny that, Bob finally finds a game he wins every time and then he wants to set up a league table for it. No seriously I think its a good idea, I had once...
Hi Gang Just a couple of things: First of all regarding Feb 3rd. I can confirm that I can't make that date for TI3, as I will be at a SuperBowl party (booked &...
Hmm, I'm not sure about this mechanism. The problem is that it favours those people who play frequently, even if they don't do well. If one player finishes...
Although i'm not in favour of league tables for the sake of it, i think one for Perikles sounds good. I'm not sure you need to give a bonus to a new player...
Since Neil is only at work today, I will take this opportunity to also wish everyone a Merry Xmas & a Happy New Year. B.t.w. A question for the club:- I am...
Federation Commander: Klingon Border? no seriously, Ra is good and Medici. ... wish everyone a Merry Xmas & a Happy New Year. ... bring some games with me. The...
Merry Christmas to all at LBGC! In answer to your query for games that will be enjoyed by non-gamers, Dave, I have a couple of suggestions:- Good old Settlers...
Andrew, in my view, I think you are technically right, and your system WOULD be fairer. But i prefer the full +1 for psychological reasons: anybody who joins...
I agree with Dave. Formula De wd be a good choice for a league, better than Team RoboRally, and better than Apocalypse which we risk not finishing each time,...
Yep, we have to avoid it favouring sheer frequency of playing. And yet allow someone to "overtake" someone who plays once, disappears, and sits at the top of...
Well, my humble opinion is: the league WILL indeed record your total of points awarded so far, but the question is what ORDER you then appear in the table,...
Hello all, Hope you all had a good Christmas. Thank you to those of you that gave me advice recently regarding what games to take to my mother-in-laws house...
Ok chaps. Here's an idea. Lets vote for our favourite games for the past year. Each member gets to nominate five candidates in each of four categories - a)...
