From publisher blurb:
While in star port the travelers are approached by a scruffy looking young man with a proposition. He needs passage to Lage. Lage is a world in the Sonora sector which has recently been conquered by forces of the Jorum family after a protracted siege and orbital nuclear bombardment. Most of the world is now covered in radioactive ruins. A red travel advisory has recently been issued due to the dangerous hot zones on the planet surface.
The Patron, Wei Columbo, states that he is in search of a long lost family heirloom and merely wants an opportunity to go find it before it is lost forever to the Jorum family. He offers CR 200,000 for passage to Lage and for the travelers to wait three days to take him off world again. He may also need a little help retrieving the heirloom from the ruins there. The deal seems cut and dried.......
- It's the big finale to all the trick-taking ones.

- So, we have noticed,

- The trick taking part is very straightforward. There's no kind of twist there but all the cards you get in the different suits you will take them backwards.
- So, first you deal everyone the cards and then you're going to sort them by color and within each color ascending or descending in one direction and then you're going to hand those cards over to your person on your left face down.
- It's like mixing logic deduction with trick taking and it's uh very clever.
- It's such an honest. You just have this table of everyone's looking at each other's cards like spin that towards me. Look at this.
- It feels really good. Yeah, great pick. My gosh.
- It's kind of like Dominion mixed with tricking.
- So you're playing trick ticking, but often times, uh, players, I know I mentioned this, but want more control over their hand. So, your deck building, you're putting whatever you want into your hand.
- It gets a little wacky. It's definitely um uh yeah it it's you can build the market so you can you can kind of create really wild setups.
- And then we are super excited. I'm doing the um kind of final touches on sail legacy. So, I'm super excited for that to come out. It is just such a big game. So my goodness.
- And then um just some of the projects. I know the return of the king is coming out later, so I'm super excited for folks to um catch that. Um it's the kind of big finale to all the trick taking ones.
