Ace of Aces
GM: Doug Porterfield, VA
Th21 • 2 hours • Tournament
An innovative one-on-one combat game that simulates a dogfight between WWI aircraft. Each player has a book with pictures of what they see out the cockpit of their airplane. Each player selects a maneuver from the book. Opponents then resolve their locations. The object of the game is to get your opponent in your sights and shoot him or her down. Visual, quick to learn, and lots of fun to play. Bring copies of the game, if possible.

Bohnanza
GM: Ed Beach, MD
Fr21 • 2 hours •Tournament
This great card game is about planting, trading, and selling beans. Players try to collect large sets of beans to sell for gold. There is limited growing space and always new beans to plant. To avoid planting unwanted beans, players trade them to other players who want them for their bean fields.

Galaxy: The Dark Ages
GM: Mark Mitchell, VA
Sa21 • 2 hours • Tournament
Galaxy, from GMT Games, is an intergalactic combat and conquest card game. Players build and enhance their game position by establishing bases. Players also control ships with unique capabilities. Game play is tense, and each card play is critical, because the most poorly-defended home world is eliminated at the end of each of the game's five rounds of play. Power-brokering and backstabbing are a staple of the game system.
