Re: Why are almost all tournaments using the 2019 edition?

For a while, I was playing a lot of turn-based expert level games with a relatively small pool of players (who I didn't know). We discussed it in a community group and all agreed to play the 2019 version but with a house rule that yellow tile 6 could only be used to buy tiles with coins as in versio...

Re: Special Edition Change-Tile 6

I don't play that much anymore but I'd be in favor of any change that gets rid of tile 6 from the second edition. As others have said in this and other forums, the tile is badly overpowered.

Is this game well-suited to turn-based play?

I'm looking for a new game to learn and this one looks interesting, although it does have the highest BGG complexity rating of any game I've played. One thing that worries me a bit is that I play only turn-based games, not real-time, and one of the instructional videos mentioned that players take tu...
