Play English Board Games in Toulouse

In this session, we'll play Dead of Winter: A Crossroads Game (https://boardgamegeek.com/boardgame/150376/dead-winter-crossroads-game).

We need at least 3 players to play this game. If we end up with less, we'll play Aeon's End (https://boardgamegeek.com/boardgame/191189/aeons-end) instead.

Medium game complexity. A lot of actions that can be performed, but most of them are intuitive, and other players can remind you of the rules without it revealing anything about their plans or yours. Lots of mandatory steps between turns also, but I'll be handling these.

As usual, all the rules will be explained at the start of the session. We welcome new players. Any actions performed by mistake can simply be reverted, unless it led to something being revealed by another player.

Homerule for this game: "[move], [move]" can be used on the same piece. This makes encounters more likely.
