Cool! I'm definitely going to Continuum now, so I'll get to try it then. Will you bring the "Escape from Insmuth" that you were playing in the basement too?

I wondered if you were going - you're not on the Members List.

If so, try and get a playtest - it's really fast and looks like a good game.

Yes, I was in the basement throughout the Auction - and I normally never miss the Auction, so it shows how much fun the Playtest was.

We had a large sheet on a table with areas roughly marked in marker pen and a road network drawn out. There were buildings marked "Fire Station", "Church" and so on. We used simple lead figures and the opponents were just plastic counters. But, the game was fast and easy to play, exciting and obviously dangerous, we could use various tactics but there was some randome element as well.

All in all, it was very good. With proper figures and buildings it will look awesome, as Gregory's games always do.
