    Audio is a ton better, Mike. Nice that the Midwest Annex is settling in.

    When I read the rulebook, I could tell just how smooth this game was going to be and it is. Even though they have little in common game play wise, Concordia is a game that comes to mind when I think about how smooth and easy this game is to understand and play. The turn angst is suburb and the variety and replayability will keep you coming back. This game is a euro-gamer’s dream!

    Thanks so much for reviewing this game. It is so good and I am constantly singing it's praises. I have yet to play Trajan it seems this game is a lighter, higher production version.

    Well said. We had a chance to play the game a few weeks ago and it was awesome. The only bad thing is availability and the high price point.

      I enjoyed the solo. Like Mike said in the video, interaction in this game is very minimal. So you are not losing a ton in solo.

    What a strange time to be having a review of this game. The Kickstarter delivered months ago, the game is unavailable anywhere, and there's barely a whisper of it being available again.

      We have a lot of games to review. We can’t always get to them right away.
