I believe Pandemic was played last year (either my Wayloss and Micro or Slam and Cora) I just can't remember which couple was playing it :)

Bren came over last night and we tried out Nightfall.

Even though he kicked my ass (11 to 6) [or possibly 12 to 8 depending on how you look at it, I thought it was a fun game.

It has some really neat mechanics for card draw, chaining effects, and generally kicking someone's ass. I look forward to playing this with more than 2 people, I think it will really shine when there are 5 people playing.

We used the quick start draft rules since we didn't want to deal with learning every card and that worked out well for newbies.

So I will more certainly bust this out for Friday night and perhaps more, Nightfall is coming to BrenCon!
