Thank you FrankJones, that is exactly what I had in mind. My reply was to Ceaseless.

Re: LV3 Blind card draws should be prohibited

Sorry, I obviously wasn't clear. All the stack should be face up in a row next to the active cards. So you know what the 2nd, 3rd etc cards to come into active play at each level will be. So it is perfect information. In practice, you would probably only need 10 or so stack cards face up at each lev...

Re: LV3 Blind card draws should be prohibited

I'm a bit late to this and notice the discussion got a bit unpleasant, so can I try a reset with a suggestion that I've been thinking about for a while? What would the game be like if all the stack cards were visible rather than hidden? Laid out in a line on each level with the closest to the table ...

Always Hali first, then Carthage?

Hali and Carthage can both pick from discard pile

I've just played a game where both Hali and Carthage could pick a card from the discard pile on their last turn. Luckily I (as Hali) got to pick first. Does anyone know how the picking order is worked out?

Re: Three player arena

there is only one new wonder, Carthage, which came with edifice but is compatible since it does nothing new. It's flexible, fun, and not too strong. There is no problem with it if you enjoy the game. Having played a few more Arena games now, I agree, and thanks for the clarification. I'm warming to...

Still the same. No idea what I was doing and lost badly.

Re: New wonders in Arena

After playing a few more games, the only one I have seen is Carthage, although I haven't been given it to play yet.
How do people rate this wonder, and which side seems best? It looks pretty strong to me, particularly the night side.

Re: Will arena ever not be 2 player?

2 player Splendor is already one of the longest games I play. With 3 or 4 players it would just take too long for my taste.
