Medieval Streetcars are Go!

My new regular game night was cancelled but Jim and his sons came over this afternoon. We played two games. The first was Streetcar from Mayfair, a tile-laying game with a little railroady theme. Fun game, but I suck at it. The second game of the day was new to me: Medieval by GMT. This is a cute little economics-and-war type cardgame with great production values and a nifty little cardmap of Europe. I actually won this one. I AM TEH WINNAR!!!!11111onelevene!!!!!! Frankly, good card pulls and lucky dice had more to do with my victory than did canny play, though I think I made a couple of smart moves. But I wouldn't be surprised if I got absolutely creamed on a second game of Medieval. Still, I'd play either game again. Streetcar has a nifty little hose-over-another-player mechanic to it that makes even last place a hoot.
