That's the question lads! We can offer the following games:
-Zombie Town
-WDC
-Murder City
-Fury of Dracula
wouldn't mind if someone brought something along though. Suggestions are welcome with open arms.

I don't think I have anything of worth to offer - but I'll have a root around. Don't know what any of those are but I'm sure they're all fun  |

I happen to like Fury of Dracula personally, but I'm happy to play nearly anything.
For myself I have Railroad Tycoon, which as you'd expect is about building railways and delivering goods across America. It doesn't take to long to set up, and is pretty easy to play, but does require a reasonable amount of space as it's got a pretty big board.
Most of my other games are either fairly quick playing and simple (Caracasonne, Ticket to Ride, Alhambra), or take more time to play than we really have on a Monday night (Arkham Horror, Order of the Stick: Dungeon of Dorukan, Settlers of Catan).

It's not bad. I've admittedly only played it once myself.
It's one of those games where the rules sound initially complex, but once you're familiar with them they're reasonably straightforward.
It probably didn't help that I was playing it only a few days after I bought a copy, with several people who were not familiar with either the comic, or roleplaying games in general, and who don't tend to play this sort of game much either. So a lot of explanations were required initially. It also runs rather longer than I had anticipated. Ok we were playing slowly, but in three hours we got about half way to the point of encountering Xykon.
I think it would be possible to play it at the club on Monday and get the game finished before 11pm, but most of the players would probably need to be at least passably familiar with the game so that play runs smoothly.

Stephen, if you could bring any of the "easy" games (Carcassonne, Alhambra etc) and we'll bring something. Would be nice to know how many, as a few of the games only allow a maximum of 5 players.

I'll bring Carcassonne (2 - 5 Players), Alhambra (2 - 6 Players) and Thurn und Taxis (2 - 4 Players).
They should all take roughly an hour to play, so gives time to play two or possibly three games in a evening.
