Just when you thought it was safe to venture back onto the internet…

It lives!

Site-visitors who’ve tracked the ‘Recently played games’ widget over on my Blogger sidebar (or on my BGG profile page) during the months of this longest of bloglags will have been aware of continuing activity there throughout all that time.

But it is the unexpected return of the Cylon menace which I must bring to your attention today.

I hosted a boardgaming stag-night for Badger last August. Seven of us played Cosmic Encounter and Dominion, which both went down very well in a company of mixed gaming interests and enthusiasms; a success sufficient to generate demand for repeats, which themselves have happened often enough to establish a definite new games group. And so last Saturday 6 gamers assembled for a much-anticipated session of games and grub, with the prospect of playing Battlestar Galactica: the boardgame adding unknown and challenging expectations to the already familiar atmosphere of pleasant anticipation.
