We had another group of 4 with 2 newbies. With that said, the 2 newbies seemed to pick up the rules to the games we played pretty quickly and seemed to enjoy themselves so there is hope they might come more regularly.
The Agents
Once again, we started with the Agents. This was primarily because the game was already out as the host and I tried to sneak in a quick game while we were waiting for the 2 newbies to arrive. Unfortunately, we didn't get very far but as the game was setup anyway, we decided to start with this game.
The host managed to get the win (his first win at this game!) with some good combinations of missions and agents. Grrr - I shall have my revenge next time!
Castle Ravenloft
Next up was Castle Ravenloft. This turned out to be a good choice as one of the newbies had played cRPGs before so was quite keen to play a mini's based board game. We took on Klak as we wanted a boss to go up against but at the same time, wanted a mission that wasn't too hard given the 2 newbies.
Good choice as we ended up winning the game without using a single healing surge!
I ended up playing the Rogue - the first time I've played the Rogue. I have to admit, the rogue is better than I first gave her credit for. Her ability to disarm traps more easily seemed too situation specific to be really useful so I never really ranked her. However, she has some nice abilities which make her useful outside of her ability to disarm traps. Would play again!
