A full house and a short game, so lots of time to chat and catch up before and after. We played Peloponnes with just the expansion to allow six players and some of the additional (possibly too powerful...?) starting civilizations.
Mixed outcomes for the players: James struggled to get going but a handy sea purchase in the last round helped him jump ahead of Kieron who simultaneously had a major population crash; Adrian had the closest pair of scores but with David just ahead of him (balancing his blessing of being immune to disasters with the curse of losing population every turn); then Andy with a large flexible income from his civilization developing a huge score (and probably on another night, a game-winning one); but he was eclipsed by Stuart with the biggest score yet in this game (one point more than he won with back in October 2013).
Final scores: Stuart population/prestige 48/39, Andy 42/32, David 24/31, Adrian 24/22, James 21/18 and Kieron 6/38.
This remains the best value for money game I've got - £9 in the Bring & Buy back at the 2011 UK Games Expo!
