The Great Evening Banquet
In stock at the following stores: Games København, Games Aarhus
In The Great Evening Banquet you are responsible for seating the guests in the state house at tables with VIPs, ideally without forcing on anyone the VIPs they would rather not see, while creating harmonious tables, both for the meal itself and for the commemorative photos afterwards.
To set the table, each player has six VIP tables, each with room for four guests. The guests come in five colours and four types, with five of each tile – one of which is raising a glass in a toast.
At the start of each round, the available carriages are filled with 2-4 tiles, after which each player in turn chooses a carriage and places all its guests at one or more tables. When a table is full, points are awarded based on type (one of each or one of each is best), colour (ideally not three) and raised glasses (the more, the better). Finally, did you meet the VIP conditions at that table, such as no guests of a certain type or at least two of one colour? If so, you receive the full value for that table; otherwise your points are halved.
When you reach 10 points, you must swap a guest from the Grand Salon with one at your tables, whether or not that table has been scored.
When all tables are full, the commemorative photos are taken and points are scored based on how well you have placed the guests in the rows and columns of the tables.
The Great Evening Banquet includes expert rules, in which the tables are close together and a guest can sit at two at once. Solo rules are also included, with the number of carriages falling and rising each round.
