[@zacharylefreeman5969]

It is overall a nice video. You made a little mistake at 3:20, sir. When a 7 is roll, you only have to discard when you have "more than 07" cards in hand, not "07 or more" cards.

[@KenPlaysCatan]

Good catch. (checks script) Yep. I wrote it correctly but said it incorrectly lol

[@Gavinwad]

Just played a 5-player game the other day. Tried to get away with no starting ore, and minimal wheat. It went...poorly. Also, other board game content sounds cool!

[@KenPlaysCatan]

Yeah, have done the same. And we'll likely do it again because THIS TIME it will work!

[@Spathy]

Another great video, thanks for the information! Hopefully will win more with these tips!

[@KenPlaysCatan]

Happy to hear it's helpful. Good luck on your climb to Grandmaster!

Is the same true for 3-player games, or does the extra space for expansion change the most efficient strategies up a little?

[@KenPlaysCatan]

The strategy for 3 player is very different. You should check out www.catanforthree.com/ for 3 player strategy.

[@grubbygeorge2117]

@@KenPlaysCatan thanks so much! That’s gonna be helpful to me since I often end up playing with just 3 people (my two closest friends who also like board games lots)

[@michaelboyles714]

We eat wheat when we heat the wheat

[@KenPlaysCatan]

A neat wheat treat.

[@amaroq69]

That’s such a wheat wheat joke.

[@Shinuslaw]

Have you heard of the saying: "Wheat is for noobs"?

[@KenPlaysCatan]

Hey man, even noobs gotta eat
