omnis, pursue. That's an order from a shy woman who can use M-16. - Shir

I need ideas here. I'm going to another game night. It seems this host is leaving the notion of what game to play up in the air, and says this:

Theme for this Games Night: HOT SUMMER NIGHTS. Bring games that have something to do with fire.

Any ideas? I'm guessing board or card games only. No video games.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.

That's a tough one. I love board and card games and I can't think of a single one that's fire related.

...so here's some search results from Board Game Geek. Fire.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

Yeah. Umm... One of the expeditions in Lost Cities is to a volcano? RoboRally, because the robots fire at each other. Through the Desert, because it's hot there. Race for the Galaxy, because that's a stupid restriction and I should just be able to bring a decent game that's fun to play, dammit!

move out and draw fire

Maybe say you read it as "Hot Sumerian Nights" and bring Tigris and Euphrates?

Or bring Power Grid, because you need air conditioning on a hot summer night.

Nyuk. Bohnanza, for the chilli beans! Agricola - it has ovens! Twilight Struggle, because playing it instead of working could get you, um, fired.

Anything for a weird life.

I got into Brute-fighting, none of my characters are especially good. Having no luck getting pets.

Took Malificum for a test drive, though, and he's absolutely ridiculous.

I was thinking Catan, since bricks require heat to make, and then there is the ports, which imply beaches, and nothing says summer fun like the beach! Plus, I own that game.

we're waiting on Madame President. If she wants to get out of the brig I can help a little.
