Description
In the harbor a fleet of commerce ships is waiting to be loaded with goods. Each vessel needs a certain combination of goods. The players take the roles of traders, trying to fill their warehouses with goods which are then in turn transferred to the ships in the harbor. They have to pay attention to the right combination of goods because the captains only accept the goods from a single trader and expect a complete delivery before their ships leave the harbor. It is also very important to not let the right moment to transfer goods to the vessels pass, because the fleet will leave the harbor when the storage space is full and the winds are helpful. The players always have to be before the wind to actively influence the events.

Quotes (from this video)
- The community is everything. It's all our feedback comes from the community and not necessarily to publish a game but also once it's published things like finding spelling mistakes or this card's overpowered or this does this or or I thought it'd be cool if you ever did an expansion you did like sharks
- If you want to rescue the emperor penguins, buy buy Time Troopers at UKGE. And you can release them into the wild.
- It's it's potentially maybe the most overproduced game I've ever did see in my life ever. Um but it's it's stunning.
- Thank you, Becky. #thankyoubecky is the hashtag for the episode.
- I feel like Michael Aspel and This Is Your Life.
- I'm sorry, but some independent board game companies that will remain nameless, um have a game they worked so hard to come up with a name and end up calling it Peacock in other countries.
- Well, I didn't do very well on the British Empire quiz, but I don't know now I was doing a BTEC in uh 80s. Chris Barrie TV, I would have prepared a bit better.
- It is offset by Craig's RSPCA comments about our penguin games, but it's always a lot of fun listening.
- I don't want to do the accent. That's rude. I'll do my David Attenborough.

- This I was mega excited about.
- We sneak the copy away.
- So, the idea behind this one, of course, card drafting, tableau building, similar to those games that we really enjoy where you're creating your grid of cards and having those have various effects, like for example in Annual X or for example in Car Combo, but with slightly more behind it as well.
- And again, sitting into that lovely sort of 45 minutes to an hour exciting interactive game, which I'm super excited about.
- The artwork is absolutely stunning.
- We can't do a 7-hour video. So, we going to in the upcoming weeks, we're going to in the in the other different episode that we do of the hype factor, the playlist or uh review, stuff like that. We're going to talk about all the other games as well.
- We have the best community of people and we love every single one of you.
