For those unfamiliar with the game, there's a Tabletop episode about it: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D7DvEIfrP84 (there's also an extended version of it that shows the full, non-condensed gameplay, I think).

I got an iPhone 6 plus this year and when I look at other peoples phones I have no idea how they get by on such tiny screens.

I don't understand. If you want something that big, just get a tablet. :huh:

I don't get it either.  I get the "kids these days" don't really use the phone for talking but then why not just get a smaller tablet.

I am trying to decide which way to go on that.  I have what others have said is an ancient iphone 4.  It is perfectly fine for my purposes but apparently I must upgrade in the new year.

You need a bigger pocket.


Or obviously a servant to carry one's tablet.

Right.  And neither does a giant, tablet sized phone.

Well, I don't know about a "giant, tablet sized phone" by my iPhone 6+ fits fine.


Anyway, there is another place to bitch about apple products. I want to get a game going!

I bought this game and I like it, but I feel I suck at it. I never beat the AI on easy.

I don't know if I tunnel vision too much on completing my quests - I rarely buy buildings but I probably should. I rarely play intrigue cards, which is probably another no no. I tend to get a quest card, get what I need to finish the quest and repeat. This doesn't seem to be a winning strategy for me.

Yeah, I am in the same boat Jaron. Send me a friend request, we can suck at the game together.

Berkut,

The game would be slower paced due to geography, but would you be interested in a 3 player game with Martinus?

Sure. That first game was enjoyably close.
