Come Play Web of Power

It's true. We're finally getting Web of Power to the table.

Web of Power is an area influence game from the year 2000 from designer Michael Schacht. It's been re-printed many times under the names China, Han, and most recently, Iwari.

Because it's max of 5 players, I'll also bring along some games from the same amazing era of board games. I'm thinking Carcassonne, Alhambra, and Torres. Also, all of these games don't take super long, so we can play and swap.

BGG description of Web of Power: Players struggle for influence over regions of Europe by placing two different type of control markers, Monasteries and Advisors. Monasteries are the basic placement, with the goal of securing a majority in a region or chain of monasteries or even decent points from second place. The placement of the Advisors is more restricted as the total number of Advisors in a region is limited by the majority player's number of monasteries. The game is played in two rounds and is very fast paced.
