Re: Physical game disappointing

It's great that some games exist a good price point, compact enough to travel with, but I also agree that a Deluxe version ought to be available too for genuine fans of this excellent game.

Re: Hello?

While I agree that a little dialogue is nice, and basic salutations are not too a lot to ask, people play in widely different ways. Sometimes chat isn't so visible and can be missed on some devices. Then you have the folks that play like 30+ turn based games at any one time, whereby their investment...

Re: So many keyboard warriors on here

I'm not sure what else can be done. You can set up games in friendly mode so when you don't like how the opponent is playing, you can just leave without karma penalty. Also competitive players don't usually join friendly mode games. You find many competitive players outside of arena because arena h...

Re: So many keyboard warriors on here

I'm a little unsure as your point given that your title talks about something different (misuse of the chat) from the rest of your post (competitive play). On the former, I totally agree that the chat should only be used for friendly chat, salutations etc , but I've played over 800 games on here and...

Re: Structure bonus

You know what isn't so hard to see on a mobile screen? previous threads in this forum ;) But yes, it's indeed an issue that I hope will get fixed before long. However, you can see it on mobile if you scroll to the bottom , beyond the bottom of the map, and scroll in there (not on the map itself), an...

Re: Why is Arena with base game only?

From what I've experienced, this is the default across all the games I play on here. I believe it more widely applies to the competitive scene for a given game, where typically the main tournaments (especially face to face) use the base game only. I think expansions are more for fans, collectors and...

Re: Collectively abandon game strategy abuse

I can't think of any specific issue with disallowing the proposal to collectively abandon 7WD duel games for arena, but don't know how well that holds for other multiplayer games. More generally, I'd prefer individuals who are blatantly abusing the rules were dealt with than the options have to be c...

Re: Auction for Turn Based should be Real Time

How would you agreed on an auction time? what if somebody can't commit to whatever time suited the others?

People play turn based to fit the game around their life, so I don't think this could work for most.

Re: Discussion: Age 1 Military Cards

Some interesting thoughts. 7WD is my favourite board game, I think it's superb, but overall I agree with the OP. Despite all the strengths of the game, I feel the game would warrant a 2nd edition, which could also address the wonder balance which sees most players across ranking groups (correctly) s...

Re: Premium membership not worth it. I'm canceling.

All fair enough, and we should all consider whether our subscriptions are bringing us value for money. Personally, I play on here every day, and it's thus excellent value for money given that I could spend the same amount of money out on the town inside the first hour. As I said though, I play almos...
