Re: What separates a 6XX+ ELO player from a 4XX ELO player?

The by far best tool you have to improve your game is replaying all your losses and really take the time to think through every decision in detail. Thank you Pistol Star for an excellent and helpful post. Much more useful than what I expected which was a list of pros and cons of each type of tile e...

Re: This game really needs a confirm/undo feature at end of turn

BGA UI design

There seems to be an unfortunate trend in BGA UI design which is: “ Users will use our site more if we have more images and links on as many screens as possible ” I believe that is incorrect. The users on your site already want to be here, and probably play as many games as they have time for. It is...

Impact No. 1: In a 2 player game, 30 cards of the whole deck are discarded at the beginning. Are there any deer | wolves in it? If y...

Re: game balance

Hi. I do not vote to change the starting money for individual gangs. I have not yet played a game where I have felt that the starting money was unbalanced for individual gangs. Instead, my suggestion would be to give each player an extra $ for each position after the first. So, 2nd player receives $...

Acrobat escape to roof

Hi. From reading BGG chats I believe that the Acrobat (advanced) can climb from level 3 and escape to the roof after all safes are opened. How do I take that action with the BGA implementation?
