I've lost track of the numbering at this point, so I'm just going with month and year.
The plundering of tombs continued at the SFLGS (the S is for super) known as Bel Air Games in Bel Air, MD. I'll state again how great a store this is. The staff, the atmosphere, everything is great. But what is really great are the people that show up to play PACG every other week. There were 10 of us this time, so we had a table of 4 and 2 tables of 3. We tend to keep the groups together if there isn't a major change who is attending from week to week.. I was late getting there (Christmas parade with the kids), but the kind fellow plunderers at my table had waited for me. (We were a scenario ahead of the other two, so they figured it would give them a chance to catch up.)
We played 3-3C, 3-3D, and 3-3E. All victories at our table, and I think at the other 2 as well who also played 3-3B. Things started off with a bang my Balazar when I encountered Dog Solider on my first exploration of my first turn at the Pleasure Barge. I defeated him by less than 5, so I got to attempt to close and, upon succeeding, got to add all 9 boons in the location deck to my hand. It was pretty sweet. I had to figure out which ones I could use just to keep from discarding too many (unfortunately nothing to let me move). I started the scenario with 17 cards in my deck and ended it with 31. That coincided very nicely with a bonus upgrade reward.
Zadim and Raheli both rocked it as well. Raheli got very excited to encounter a blessing 3 at one point. And Zadim was just his usual stabby self. Zadim did start a discussion to try to figure out why Garrote lacked the 2-Handed trait. I reasoned you could maybe hold one end in your teeth.
Balazar got some nice upgrades, including Phantom Steed and Summoner Lesser Monster. We earned our role cards, but didn't actually decide yet. So I've got some pondering to do with Balazar.
As usual, it was a great time.
