Can we have the board the right side up?

Post by Injured Pigeon »

When playing as nixon the board is up side down... surely that was intentional? My eyes don't work that way.

That's probably taken straight from the rulebook, which explicitly says that the board should be right side up for the Editor and upside down for Nixon.

Probably, but online there isn't really a good reason to not have the board right side up for both players right?

When you have the board in front of you (including in a replay), click on the three grey lines in the upper right corner. The options menu will open and the last entry gives you a choice to play Nixon either upside down or right side up. I too found the upside down Nixon a bit jarring but opinions vary and it's great to have the option.

Thanks for the help. It's even stranger that it's an optional setting with a default of playing upside down. :D
