NOTE: If a dice roll leads to less groups than there are players in the game, the leftover players get to take a “move the Steward one step” action in compensation.

Very interesting, I like the idea of a penciled in player board and score sheet, pretty cool! Also the rule about winning forever and just giving the game away made me crack up! Thanks for the great tutorial as always Rodney!

I googled it, if you rolled 10 dice, the chance they all come up the same is about 1 in 46 million. I'd say yes you've won forever :)

NICE GAME SIMPLE GAME SYSTEM!! Thank for the introduction, a game with a piece of paper and dice would never go wrong, the solid game system base on simple gaming MECH is wonderful, thanks and wish you all the best...

Thank you, Rodney! I think my group will like this as we liked St. Malo! They are similar in how you circle/use resources to do other things, but then plenty different. I like all the options for replayability but lighter to teach than most board games.

Thank you Rodney. We just got this game and we weren't sure if we were meant to cross off the dice each time we took a turn or at the start of each round as the rulebook was unclear. We opted for the former and felt the game was over too quick. I looked it up and felt great relief when I saw you had made a video on it, I knew it would soon be clear!

It's actually a reworking of their previous game Yspahan.

I was wondering if Rodney will cover that part of the rulebook that details what happens if all the same number is rolled. Sure enough, he did. :D I looked at the rules for Yspahan, the game reimplemented by Corinth, and their instructions say in the rare case of rolling all the same number, all dice are put on the camel space (the lowest group space). Consider that alternative rules for those that don't want to part with a game. :)

Hi Rodney and thanks for another great video. I would like to ask you pls some questions about the game 1. after you take a die or dice, you must or may do either an action / move Stewart. Can you just take the die/dice and do nothing? 2. can you give a gold to turn a die from 6 to 1 or from 1 to 6? 3. if there are no more dice to take to do an action and you cant make a complete move using the "move the Stewart one step", does this mean you cant do anything at all in your turn? Thank you.

@WatchItPlayed

4 жыл бұрын

1) The rules imply that you cannot choose to do nothing, but you may end up in a situation where you can't resolve the dice you've taken. 2) The rules do not say, so I am inclined to think you cannot. 3) The rules say: " If a player ends up in a situation where it is not possible to proceed to a complete move with the Steward (not enough Gold Coins to decrease the number of steps for instance), they cannot choose that action."

Can someone answer a rules related question for me please? Say you have bought the warehouse which gives you the bonus of one extra good when delivering to the districts. Does this bonus also applies when you move the steward in the market and land on of these goods? Thank you for any comments. Probably just wishful thinking;)

Hey Martina, that bonus is only given when you specifically take the "deliver goods" action, not also when you get goods from the Steward action. Hope that helps!

In the rulebook: *If a dice roll leads to less groups than there are players in the game, the leftover players get to take a "move the Steward one step" action in compensation.* So if no dice group remains when it comes to a player's turn, they may take the action to move the Steward one step-move him one step, circle the space and get its reward. (I believe you still can spend gold to increase the number of steps.)

Interesting game. Personally, I'd cannibalize some sheets to make game boards for replayability (get some meeples and tokens from other games as indicators instead of crossing off things on the sheets). I'm always sketchy about games with consumable pieces.

Is it against the rules for players to cover their game sheet from other players? Most importantly, I'm talking about whether they can cover the left side of their game sheet, that shows their progress on shops and districts?

Players are not instructed by the rules to cover their sheets.
