Serious Strategy: Cities and Knights of Catan

About this event

Interested in a board game meetup with a focus on games with deeper strategy and more replayability? Prefer spending your time diving into gameplay rather than learning new rules every session?

“Serious Strategy” is a meetup series designed for those who enjoy thoughtful, engaging games that reward repeated play. We focus on revisiting well-regarded strategy titles that offer depth and challenges not found in more casual or party-style games, offering the opportunity to match wits with other strategically-inclined players.

Four rules:

• Learn the game ahead of time (rulebook and/or videos will be provided)

• Respect your fellow gamers and the game (be timely and take the game seriously)

• Support the venue (order a drink or food from the cafe)

• Sign up here and on the Google Spreadsheet to reserve your slot (so we know which game you're playing)

This week's games: Cities and Knights of Catan

Cities and Knights of Catan

This full-bodied expansion introduces more nuanced developments of cities, interactive knights, battles against barbarians, and more, transforming Settlers of Catan from the classic gateway game to a deeper, heavier experience. Once you play Cities and Knights, you'll never want to go back to the base game again.

NOTE : Our venue has room for at least two larger-scale games, but I can only host one game at a time right now. If you'd like to host a second game at our meetup, let me know.

With a limited number of seats, no-shows are no fun - and may prevent us from playing at all - so those who no-show or cancel with less than 48 hours notice will be restricted in their ability to sign up in the future.
