Board Game Arena

Yes!!! I was a strong opponent of the flipped board when Agricola came to BGA. Back then I looked at coding this myself but never finished it. I think the original layout (and Play Agricola) fits screens better. One problem is that BGA has dug their hole deeper, rewriting cards to fit the BGA layout...

I agree with you that it is overpowered. I don't think I've ever lost with Beer Table.

But I also think we should trust the stats alex linked to, so unfortunately a ban can't be justified.

They are passed to the player going after you.

I propose to add acquirer to banlist. Food is tight enough early that it's hard to justify using it. Cooking hearth technically turns a 2f profit on cows, but is slow and requires investment and then doesn't work once you grow. Late, the price becomes so expensive almost nothing is worth it. Sure, ...

Woho! Thanks!

A player who appears to be uninterested in the growth queue can suddenly start and then play Lodger, which the other players may not have seen. This can mean a player who was expecting to grow first can be sent to the back of the queue without warning, which can destroy their game depending on thei...

I am, as we speak, in yet another game that has been totally and completely destroyed by a weak player first picking Lodger. I am desperate to ban it. Desperate. We should not have cards that ruin other people's games like this. Why does it exist??? How are games destroyed by Lodger? I am curious a...

I don't remember ever seeing it on BGA. If I start a solo mode, with draft all cards, it is not there. During the BGA development of the latest set of cards, there was a spreadsheet showing implementation status of all cards. I don't know if this sheet still exist. Its status should be there in that...
