Every time I forget how to count the end game points, I come back to this video 😊

[@misterlad]

Just wanted to let you know that I thought this video was great. Well done :-)

[@GreysonDKB]

Again, thanks. This and the set-up video saved the day! Another great teaching video.

[@TomTeachesGames]

You’re more than welcome! It’s super fun for me, so I’m just happy to share the fun with others.

Since you mentioned it, I looked it up, and Kennerspiel des Jahres in 2014 was Istanbul. Spotted a couple of things on the way through: At 47:00, Red buys a card, but forgets to pay the food for it. That would have prevented him from doing everything he did later. 57:40, Blue decided to spend 16 sestertii, picked up 15, then you paused to consider whether that was really the best move, and didn't pick up the last coin. That had no effect on the rest of the game, nor the final scoring.

[@TomTeachesGames]

Thanks for all of those! I’m gonna claim those mistakes as a victory considering how nervous I was to get this thing recorded 😂 So thanks a million! I’ll get them annotated ASAP

We love Concordia. We also have our own names for the resources. Great game that is easy to play but offers a lot of depth.

[@TomTeachesGames]

Yeah! I agree 100%. It’s a pretty good game to introduce this type of game (map, resource management, action selection...) If my group wasn’t so turned off by the theme, I think this would get a lot more okay. But yes, I agree with your comment about ease and depth.

i have Concordia on my self of shame. I think this video makes me want to try it out.

[@TomTeachesGames]

Yeah! I can definitely see why it was nominated. Gameplay is super smooth. It was certainly a pleasure to play.

[@MichaelLegedza]

I’m sorry, but it is Province, not providence. A province is a place; providence is a term having to do with divine intervention.

[@TomTeachesGames]

😂😂😂 Well, I’m happy to let my stupidity show anytime. But thank you for the clarification! I’m glad I learned something today....

[@GreysonDKB]

Oh, Tom! You could have called provinces "flipity-flopity-floops" and we all would've known what you meant! The best part was ths pronunciation of the Roman names! 😁

[@TomTeachesGames]

Well, even if it was an easy-English word, I’m sure I would have messed it up just as badly.... 😂

[@tabathaperez6536]

I live right next to Providence in Rhode Island 😍😍
