Thanks for featuring this hidden gem. Like you said, it's got some great interlocking mechanisms and tough player interaction with the majorities. I would strongly recommend people check out the designer-created Crude variant in the back of the rule book. It gets rid of the randomness of the PR Crises as well as the faff with the specialists or consultants or whatever they're called - what's left is a tense and very solid shares game.

Hey, thanks for sharing, I have yet to try the Crude variant but will have to now! I'm looking forward to Peak Oil Profiteer as well which should be delivered soon.

Do you think I play a solo variant version?

[@economicboardgames]

I've not come across a solo variant myself, big part of the game is area majority which is alot of fun as multiplayer. Could always randomly distribute pawns I guess for solo. Let me know how you get on!

@@economicboardgames Thanks for the reply! Do you have any other ideas or proposals for changes? Because I like the game and i'm a geologist's student, but I'm an only child so I don't have anyone to play with ...
