...my friends want to get together and play TI.
Might be playing on Thursday...
Cool. It sounds like your friends really enjoyed their first game.
I had a game lined up for a couple of weeks from now with eight players. Unfortunately, now the player count is down to four. It should still be a good time, but not quite as epic as I had been looking forward to.
I just had a funny image pop into my head. Picture ordering some food at a fast-food restaurant only it's not a fast food restaurant, it's a board-game-session ordering place...
Me: I'd like a session of Twilight Imperium, please.
Them: Would you like to epic-size that for just 99 cents more?
Me: HECK YEAH!
I'm going to try and convince one of my friends to buy me the first expansion today and then I pay him back for it after I get paid tomorrow.
