Because of many double and triple multiplier cards, which multiply upon each other, and "color-locking" (which also doubles the score), a small word or straight can be multiplied by 2, 3, 4, 6, 9, 12, 18, etc., and be worth 200 points or more! Stuck with a "Q," an "X," or a "Z?" Don't make a word. Put them in a straight or a flush. Did your opponent just make a 400 point combination? Don't fret. Cancel it with the "joker." Or steal any part of it for yourself. Players may play in any or all of the three preliminary sessions, but may only qualify once. The winner at each table will advance to the final round to play for the U.S. National Championship title and a trophy! Wednesday, 10:00PM - 12:00AM; Session 1A of 2; All Materials Provided.

B600: Dune. Set thousands of years in the future, this Avalon Hill board game is based on the Frank Herbert novels about an arid planet at the heart of the human space empire's political machinations. Players each take the role of one of the factions attempting to control Dune. Each faction has special powers that overlook certain rules in the game. Each turn players move about the map attempting to pick up valuable spice while dealing with giant sandworms, deadly storms, and other players' military forces. A delicate political balance is formed amongst the factions to prevent any one side from becoming too strong. When a challenge is made in a territory, combat takes the form of hidden bids with additional treachery cards to further the uncertainty.

B610: Acquire. This Sid Sackson classic has taken many different forms over the years depending on the publisher. Each player strategically invests in businesses, trying to retain a majority of stock. As the businesses grow with tile placements, they also start merging, giving the majority stockholders of the acquired business sizable bonuses, which can then be used to reinvest into other chains. All of the investors in the acquired company can then cash in their stocks for current value or trade them 2-for-1 for shares of the newer, larger business. The game is a race to acquire the greatest wealth. Friday, 8:00PM - 10:00PM; One Session; All Materials Provided. Beginners Welcome; Fun, All Ages.

B614: FITS (Fill In The Spaces). FITS (Fill In The Spaces) is essentially a multi-player Tetris. Each player has an inclined board on which they place different polyominoes - like Blokus pieces, with three, four, or five squares. Cards are drawn from a pile to tell the players which piece to take. The pieces may be rotated and reversed before they slide down the inclined area to dock to other gaming pieces, but unlike Tetris cannot be slid horizontally once dropped. Scoring is based on quantity and configuration of squares left uncovered. Unlike original Tetris there is no time pressure but like Tetris every player is engaged with his own board. Friday, 8:00PM - 10:00PM; One Session; All Materials Provided. Beginners Welcome; Fun, All Ages.

B615: In the Year of the Dragon. It is 1000 AD. China. The astrologers have prophesied a most unfortunate year. There shall be plagues and pestilences and other challenges. But do not despair.

Friday, 8:00PM - 10:00PM; One Session; All Materials Provided. Beginners Welcome; Fun, All Ages.

B616: Pictureka!. Pictureka! is a new kind of game, both in mechanic as in artwork. The mechanic is invigorating with its large square gaming tiles. The game board is composed of 3 by 3 game tiles, so the game board on which is played is a huge square of 63 cm x 63 cm. This is large enough for several players to be able to play the game at the same time. The game board is "alive", it is not a static board as the tiles are flipped over, turned and moved. So it is not possible to memory map the board. The mechanic of an ever changing board makes it not only fun; also the challenge is kept into the game all the time. Friday, 8:00PM - 10:00PM; One Session; All Materials Provided. Beginners Welcome; Fun, All Ages.

Use your hand of item and modifier cards to construct a diabolical weapon (such as "1000 electrified hamsters") with which to attack a fellow player. Then you must tell a story about how you will use this implausible but fearsome weapon to destroy your opponent. The other player gets to build a defensive item in the same way (maybe a "radioactive garden gnome") and describe how it prevents or deflects the attack. The rest of the group then decides who is the winner of the battle. Friday, 8:00PM - 10:00PM; One Session; All Materials Provided. Beginners Welcome; Silly, All Ages. See Also: B812.

B620: Wealth of Nations. This is a game of supply and demand in which players spend resources to buy industries to make more resources. You can't make every resource yourself, so you'll have to plan out what you need and try to swing a deal with other players. Going into debt can help you develop more quickly, if you don't borrow too much... Wealth of Nations is another board game influenced by the legendary video game M.U.L.E. Despite the game's name, there's no link to actual historical events. The game is a pure engine-building cube-grinding Euro, but with an incredible supply-and-demand mechanism that forces players to somehow plan ahead and stay on their toes at the same time. Friday, 8:00PM - 12:00AM; One Session; All Materials Provided. Beginners Welcome; Fun, All Ages.

Fight Wild Bill Hiccup, the Killer Jalapeno, and a Barber Shop Quartet. Take The Annual Bath for an extra level.

E625: FlatOut 2. RATED: T. FlatOut was an enjoyable demolition derby-style racer best known for its destructible cars and environments, and for the fact that its accident-prone ragdoll drivers were averse to seatbelts. If you're familiar with FlatOut, you'll know that all 16 of the game's highly destructible vehicles looked pretty beaten up before you got anywhere near them. FlatOut 2 will feature more than 35 different vehicles, and although the game's "derby class" wheels will look every bit as trashed as those in the original game, your progression into the new "race class" and "street class" events will unlock a number of much shinier and more roadworthy cars. Every time you lose control, you will truly feel the weight of the car as it collides with and destroys a barn, or smashes into the pack of cars ahead of you, and with 40 deformable pieces on every car sparks are guaranteed to fly!

B651: Shark. Shark is a stock-trading game slightly reminiscent of Acquire, in that abstract plays on the game board determine the share values of the various companies. Each player may buy and sell shares both before and after his turn, and during his turn rolls dice to determine which company he can affect and in what region he can place that company's marker. Placing next to another of that company's markers increases the company's share price, which pays out in two ways: first, for placing the marker, the player gets money equal to the new price, and secondly, all players get paid the amount of the increase, multiplied by the number of shares each of them owns. This wealth is not without risks, though, as placing in a way that brings two companies' marker-groups adjacent to each other causes the smaller group to be removed from the board, decreasing that company's share price accordingly - and all players must pay the amount of the decrease, again multiplied by the number of shares they hold in that company! Friday, 10:00PM - 12:00AM; One Session; All Materials Provided. Beginners Welcome; Fun, All Ages.

B652: Ta Yu. In Ta Yu, a sumptuously produced game of connections, one side tries to extend from the starting tile in the center to reach the western and eastern edges of the board while the opposing side tries to reach the northern and southern edges.

Interestingly, you need to play both offense and defense and will often have to decide to which use to put a particular tile. Friday, 10:00PM - 12:00AM; One Session; All Materials Provided. Beginners Welcome; Fun, All Ages.

B653: Vikings. In this Rio Grande game, each player is the leader of a band of Vikings. His task is to scout and then settle the islands off the coast of his homeland.

The bands build yards and churches and invite goldsmiths, scouts, fishermen, and nobles to settle on their island to establish the most profitable settlements. But, warriors are also necessary - the islands soon attract ships bound to attack them to pillage the new settlements! Friday, 10:00PM - 12:00AM; One Session; All Materials Provided.

Along the way, trump is randomly determined and can be changed during the hand through the use of special cards.

Fortunately, your Sitting Duck class spaceship is equipped with the latest equipment like laser cannons, shields, and energy reactors.

B938: Steel Driver. Six railroad companies are poised to build tracks all across the country. Players will bid on shares of the different companies, and then use the money the companies have acquired to build track around the country. The game takes a bizarre twist at the end, when each player assumes the companies they're most invested in, and tries to inflate their shares by picking up goods using the track they've built. Steel Driver is a fast-moving middleweight based on the rail game Prairie Railroads, which also influenced Wabash Cannonball and Chicago Express. If you've ever played Acquire, you'll also notice a similarity there, as more than one player might have a rooting interest in a company. Sunday, 2:00PM - 4:00PM; One Session; All Materials Provided.
