Six of us this week so it gave us a chance to try the Leaders expansion to 7 Wonders, which I'd picked up while on holiday in Florence. Steve was the only one to have played before and made sure he wasn't sitting next to Mark G, who was heavy on the military strategy as usual - Julia and Pete were stuck with being his neighbours. Julia and I were both going for science points and that fact combined with Mark K and Steve being my neighbours meant that I didn't see as many green cards as I hoped. However, Steve's leaders and guild card worked perfectly towards him gathering as much money as he could and this proved decisive as he edged the win from me by two points.

What did I think about Leaders? It was quite good adding another element to think about but I wouldn't say it improved on the base game, which is fantastic just as it is.
