This evening was a bit of a double whammy - two games of Agricola being played at the same time around Nigel Woods house :) We split the table down the middle into basically Basic Agricola and Advanced Agricola - which used the Farmers of the Moor add on. Playing advanced was Nigel Wood (The undisputed champion of Agricola), Brian, Steve and Andy whilst Paul, Nigel Heather and myself played the basic version. It went off really well because it gave the more experienced players a chance to play together whilst us lesser experienced guys could muddle through the rules together and ask the others if we got stuck.
Our game progressed smoothly and Paul turned out to be an adept player, even though he had only really played solo. Nigel's farm packed a punch in the end, but Paul won with me coming up 3rd as I couldn't seem to generate enough wheat or veg!
