Great concise teach. I particularly like the way you zoom and highlight the board when speaking about it.

Great video! I think I have everything I need to play\teach this to my group. One small note, one scoring the contracts @8:22, you'd indicated that it's cube cost times the number of cards in the column, in the example you'd highlighted 5 cubes (the 6th icon was a brown jug), across the 3 cards. So it should have been 15 points, instead of 18, if I understand the explanation correctly.

[@littlemeeples]

You are correct! I circled the correct cubes but counted them wrong. 5 cube instead of 6

a question on the disk that unlocks the ability to discard a card with the lowest cost from the contract or industry market: the player discards it, moves the remaining ones up and refills a card on the free space with the highest cost. At that point he can pay to take a contract or an industry?

@@stefanodimartino8275 yes that’s how I interpret it.

[@stefanodimartino8275]

@@littlemeeples as for the order of unlocking the disks: on the book on the left first the lowest then the others in any order. on the book on the right we have two areas, the first the central disks are unlocked first (near the action symbols) and then the adjacent ones. in the area on the far right they must be unlocked in order 2-3-4 the choice of which of these three sections to unlock is independent. I can start by unlocking what I want on the book board respecting these criteria. is everything correct? thanks

@@stefanodimartino8275 all correct

@@littlemeeples what do you thing about this opinion ? "I did not like the fact that you get 3/5 points per master for the small factories b/c you don't have much control over that. Someone can easily get 20+ points by just being in the right player order."
