Fpr Amber it can stretch a bit higher than 5. It’s a competitive politicy sort of game. Three has the potential to become (gasp!) co-operative!
I bumped it to 6…
Hey thanks for a great day, I had heaps of fun and had a good group of guys to hang with and play games with.
Cheers Ray
You’re welcome, Ray! Thanks for coming along.
I was planning to attend for the first time but life got in the way.
Any idea when the next is planned as I’d really like to get involved.

Next Go Play will probably be around March 2011. BUT… keep your calendar free for September 25&26. Without Gen Con Oz 2010, something else will rise up to take its place.
From the ashes the phenix will rise…
