Last night for games night I played a good number of games.  The first of which was Small World with Chris, Julian, Jeff, and Bri.  I was able to take the lead and keep it with the strategy of going for the mountains before declining.  No one tends to attack the mountains with a declined race on them.  I also came into the board right next to my declined race, so that there was only one side they would really be attacked from.  It was a good game and we played with all the expansions.  I started out with a bad race of historian elves.  I declined that immediately and moved on to rampaging amazons.  The amazons did really well, and the elves stayed on the board for a while.  I then got the flying pixies, which was fantastic for taking over a ton of area.  I won by a fair margin, and was able to knock down my closest competitors with the rampaging amazons.
