12 at Purple Dragon Games
IN: Steve & Sandy, Sean & Wendy, Quinn, Tim, Drew, Amy, Armando, Rob Sofia, Michelle
ON OUR TABLES:
The Duke (led by Drew) 2013 2-player abstract with chunky double-sided wooden tiles – offensive on one side, defensive on the flip side..
King of 12 (led by Tim) 2020 simultaneous action card game where players have identical action decks that cancel out if identical cards are played. Novel use of d12 that can be modified to determine outcomes. 
Brian Boru: High King of Ireland (led by Sean) 2021 game of trick taking for area control (not a usual combination, but it works here)
Kingsburg (led by Amy) 2007 worker placement game that uses dice as workers to gain the influence of advisors to the King….and defeat those pesky Goblins, Demons and Orcs. Construct buildings using gold, wood & bricks to earn VPs. We played on the 10th Anniversary edition which included the previously released expansions.
King Me/ King Up (led by Drew) 2004 bluffing and voting game – influence your favorite successor to the throne.
Vintage 2x (led by Sean) 2020 Bruno Faidutti designed set collection card game
Ka-Ching/Combit/Trader (led by K-ban) 2001 2-player drafting card game. Either buy a card or sell 2 cards of the same color and multiply their values. Was the influence for many card games that followed – 7 Wonders Duel and Truffle Shuffle come to mind.
