Played last night: Hansa Teutonica and Flaschenteufel

Hansa Teutonica - Finally played it last night and I think it really is as good as they say.  Tactical, open-ended, lots of player conflict, and quick-moving.  Feels more like a more abstract Endeavor (I know, seriously?) but doesn't capture the same feeling of conquest.  AWFUL rulebook translation.

Flaschenteufel - Yes, the bottle imp really is a devilish delight.  A very devious trick-taking game that is great for 3 players and really makes you feel like you're making deals with the devil.  Love it.
