Introduction
Enjoy theme-based Euros. Played many, most just a few times each. I'm mycroftH on BoardGameGeek so check out my game list there for games to bring. Want to meet west-side players as I live on the mountain above Newberg. Prefer playing during the day.
What games are your current favorite?
Goa, Colosseum, El Grande, Puerto Rico, Princes of Florence, Tigris & Euphrates, Cuba, Medici, Silverton (have); Pillars of the Earth, Age of Empires III, Empire Builder (don't have).
What games do you avoid?
Abstract strategy - chess-like (except I did enjoy Ingenious, which I played once). Don't like games that require lots of quick math (addition); I'm too slow at that.
Additional Information
"Meetups out on west side?? I dream of a group here on the mountain that plays something other than Bunco."
