Another game in rat-infested Paris with worker placement and card game Notre Dame. Andy's 4 block strategy gave him lots of double coins or rat removal but didn't generate the prestige points needed. Stuart stayed out of Notre Dame itself, collecting plenty of prestige points from the character cards. David, James and Andy visited Notre Dame each turn but James' extra cash enabled the larger donations, ultimately pipping Stu to first place by just two points.
We then played Colt Express with the Horses & Stagecoach expansion that David got James for Christmas.
As well as the obvious, this also adds hostages who can be ransomed (but cramp your style during the game), whisky flasks that give bonuses with the cards, and an extra strongbox defended by a shotgun-wielding character. That sounds a lot but it all complements the original game really well, giving more variety and opportunities to shoot James. Stuart and David got the strongboxes but a later punch-up saw Stuart take them both and climb to the roof in the last move to avoid sharing any booty.
