Quotes (from this video)
- there were a number of different ways to engine build and work towards you know you could get lots of large workers so you had lots of choice of actions or you could get lots of incomes but it ended up being a really tight battle on that tile placement the Army Warrior placement board
- it's the type of Cooperative that no Alpha player can take control
- the way you draft them here you've got so many things to think about
- it's a brilliant release
- this is the best real-time game there is because there's very few rules and that means you don't have to stop and ask each other the rules all the time
- it's highly interactive you look at other opponents what they are close to you can also steal one of their
- this is actually going to sound like quite an understated review because there's nothing there's not much new here this is a five action Euro it's got a map it's got a um you know it's got a track it's got all the sorts of things said collection nothing really new
- the dice drafting you mentioned before each die that you take it's going to have a color which tells you how many resources which tells you what resource you get it's going to have a number which tells you how many of that resource you'll get and it dictates what action the dye is connected to and the action points you'll get is equal to 7 minus the number on the die
- the map is really tight once people have built in locations it really blocks others out and that's a lot it's a lot tighter than I'm used to seeing these days on Euro map boards and it was what made it stand out
- what I like about this is that it's combo your egg combo your actions of other players back of cards
- you've always dropped like the risk yeah you've always got the risk if you're just waiting for that one little extra thing to come into someone's hand you've got that risk that they all get
