Game time

This is the only game where I was forced out because of not being able to manage time and an opponent mashing the expulsion button. I've got experience with myriad games that require far more strategic planning and never had this issue. I have a handful of games in stone age so, it's going to take m...

Re: No silver for sale?

So I am just learning this game, and playing my first real game. It's phase C, and both my friend and I sold 2 goods each, and neither of us got a silver for it. He even had a building that was suppose to give him 2 silver for it. Is there a bug or is there something I am missing in the rules? Only...

Re: Possible Variant to change Tile Number 6 in the new version back to the old version?

pretty sure this is a troll. But this comment misses the reason why tile #6 is a problem: - You have a a #3 die . - You can spend any # die to gain 2 workers. - You can use those 2 workers to buy a 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, or 6. Or just take from the bank. - Repeat every turn. It's not a troll. It's basic ma...

Re: Arena Settings

Please everyone, stop feeding the troll. (I'm not a competitive or particularly good CoB player, so don't have any natural "side" in this debate - but I know which side is giving reasonable arguments and which is just coming across as objectionable, and I trust most other observers would ...

Re: Arena Settings

Wow… It always amazes me how heated some people can get about a site which is supposed to be fun! I suppose I am glad you are also passionate about this game, although we find different ways to express that. There are a lot of things in the above I could pick up on, but I think we are going in circ...

Re: Arena Settings

Pascalbro, I’m not sure what you’re trying to achieve anymore except that you are clearly getting increasingly entrenched with what seemed like an aggressively aired mild annoyance that has turned into a hill to die on. Feigning ignorance is just as bad as being ignorant. What I'm trying to achieve...

Re: Arena Settings

Obviously I don't have any idea what I am talking about and you do. I think that's obvious to everyone in this thread :mrgreen: Considering you're all oblivious to basic concepts when it comes to how statistics works, yes. This glaring omission, as well as the lack of a competitive arena, is eviden...

Re: Arena Settings

Why is Arena set to the first edition? As a new player, it's extremely daunting to hit 100, queue up for a game and find the entire landscape is a dull wash with extremely low variance and how it heavily favors the first person to play. Also, sort of explains why I'm getting games immediately in si...

Re: Arena Settings

Trust me when I tell you the new tile 6 is so overpowered it's just insane. I have never seen anything similar like it in any other game in my life and I have played many hundreds different board games in my life. I am ranked 1 in Castles of Burgundy All Times List and I am the current Arena Champi...
