- Weekend session: Great Western Trail: New ZealandMarco's place, Bruxelles
In Great Western Trail: New Zealand, you are a runholder — that is, the owner of a sheep station — on the South Island of New Zealand at the end of the 19th century. Recent years have seen your family farm prosper by diversifying your breeds of sheep and by increasing the value of your wool.
With the dawn of the new century, new challenges have arisen. You must acquire new and improved breeds of sheep to ensure the prosperity of your family business and the laborers who work for you.
GWT: NZ offers you a lot of options compared to its original predecessor, resulting in a similar, yet quite different experience.

- Afterwork Session: SETIOutpost Brussels Gamecenter, Bruxelles
Let's play the new hot game from Essen : SETI, from Czech Games Edition!
"In SETI: Search for Extraterrestrial Intelligence, a eurogame for 1–4 players, you lead a scientific institution tasked with searching for traces of life beyond planet Earth. The game draws inspiration from current or emerging technologies and efforts in space exploration.
Players will explore nearby planets and their moons by launching probes from Earth while taking advantage of ever-shifting planetary positions. Decide whether to land on their surface to collect valuable samples, or stay in orbit for a broader survey. Additionally, by directing your telescopes to gaze into distant star systems, you may detect traces of alien signals or undiscovered exoplanets, and collect promising data to examine and study back home."

How-to-Play videoAlthough the game rules can be simple, the game length varies A LOT depending if the players have analysis paralysis or not. The game will be called at 22:30, no matter the game state at that time!
- Afterwork Session: Steam PowerOutpost Brussels Gamecenter, Bruxelles
Steam Power on BGG
How to play Steam Power (5 mins)In Steam Power, players "race" to build the best rail network to meet their contractual obligations and make the most money.
On your turn, you can perform two actions from a selection of choices, letting you lay tracks, build factories, fulfill contracts, earn money, or collect more contracts. Building a factory brings resources to the board that all players have access to...at a price.
The game ends when a certain number of contracts are fulfilled, which varies by player count. The player with the most points (and money, which converts to points) wins. - Before J&P : The King Is Dead (2nd Edition)Outpost Game Center, 1000 Brussels
The King Is Dead on BGG
How to play The King Is Dead (19 mins)Before the Join & Play, let's play The King Is Dead. The kingdom is divided. Three factions — the Scottish, the Welsh, and the English — vie for control and, across the sea, foreign invaders prepare to take advantage of the chaos. Players must marshal their limited resources to influence this power struggle, while ensuring that the faction that rises to dominate the realm favours them above all other claimants to the throne.
The King is Dead: Second Edition refreshes the accessible yet strikingly deep game with updated graphic design and gorgeous new artwork. - Join & Play Session ! November 21Outpost Brussels Gamecenter, Bruxelles
Our traditional "Join & Play" event is now on the 1st, 2nd and 3rd Thursdays of each month. As always, it's free to come & play with us.
How does it work ?
• The events are open for beginner to advanced gamers. If you're new here they're the perfect gateway to discover what we do!
• Those who want to host a game are asked to share in the comments below which game, & for how many players you can run your table.
• For others, if you see a game you'd like to join just respond to the host in the comments below and we'll reserve a spot for that game for you.
• Don't worry if you're new to boardgames or simply don't know the games being hosted this time around; you can simply show up and the event host will sort out a spot at a table for you! But please make sure to arrive by 19h30 at the latest so we can take the time to find you a suitable spot.
• The rules for the games will be explained by the table host before the game starts. No need to study them upfront, although several hosts post a video link to rules or background which can enhance your enjoyment of the game if you have the time to watch beforehand. This is never mandatory, however.
Please note, ALL attendees must have their MeetUp message function turned on, in case of problems leading up to the event itself. Failure to do so will mean they will be removed in favour of those on the Waitlist.
This event is free but takes place in a gaming cafe, the Outpost. As in any place of this type*, bringing food and drinks from the outside is not allowed, and you're expected to order something during the evening.
All your hosts are doing that with passion for free, with their own games, players have to respect and be nice with the others players. Respect, courtesy and fairplay are asked around the table. Have fun.
Attitude is everything, Pick a good one.==============================================
