| Notes | A hilarious and shocking end game upset brought the table down. Bernd who was low on red and black was tired of holding green and blue tiles the whole time, so hatched to throw all his tiles in the bag and replenish, then in then instigate a revolt in red. Alas he'd had one wine too many and did the revolt with only one red tile in hand, and lost. Aaargh, This was decisively bad and with red and black weak, only green and blue tiles in hand, his red leader off the board and not much of the game left, three huge kingdoms on the board, all hope seemed lost. The Dan started a war, a big war, lots of casualties on the horizon. He went into it from a strong green kingdom with 7 tiles, and attacked a week one with only 3 tiles in the hope of boosting his week green score (he was rolling in black and blue, but week in green). Confident of a victory with a 4 tile lead, against Bernd's green leader in the kingdom under attack, we asked if Bernd had 4 green (which he'd need to survive the attack and win). "Welll, as it happens ...." and Bernd slides four green tiles out, that he only has because of screwing up his red assault last turn. Jaws drop. And the tables are turned. At the end of Dan's turn, he and Bernd top up their hand to six tiles from the back and then Ian's turn comes up and sees his chance, and starts another war ... this time hitting Bernd's Blue leader with a three tile advantage, feeling confident, asks if Bernd has 3 blue tiles up his sleeve. "Well, as it happens ...", and slides three blue out. Bernd had drawn four blue when replacing his green. Which only goes to prove, that Tigris and Euphrates, for its charms (perhaps this being one of its charms) allows for some serious luck to decide the end rankings and outrageously entertaining upsets. |
