Favorite release this year. Outstanding design.

I can see why Rahdo wouldn’t review this.

i was going to, but it was too big for the table in my RV, so when i saw shea at dice tower west convention, i handed it to him because he could make it happen! :)

​@@rahdo: did you play it with 2p? In some reviews I've seen that it's mentioned that it's a little meaty or mean. Did it bother you two? We are not fond of games with strong take that, it can be competitive but not in the idea that I will pursue my entire game only to add something on a track so that you don't get all the points...you understand what I mean 🙂

[@rahdo]

@@Sadguardian i would say it's pretty typical euro "you grabbed the thing I was trying to get" type stuff. nothing too egregious, but the game is SOOO long that it can feel like it hurts more than in comparable games i'd say

@@rahdo thank you for the fast answer, much appreciated!! Dragging too much is even worse for us. The meanness you can mitigate somehow with some small house rules adjustments 😁 but dragging too much is a question mark because we believe that is more fun playing 2-3 games in this time as playing something too long (exceptions are campaign games). Anyhow thanks again!!
