Re: Explanation of Board Options?

Board 8 doesn't have a big beige area (there was a mistake earlier in this thread), it has a big 6-spaces animal pasture, which, combined with the many small regions Lumin_S mentioned, makes it overpowered.

In the physical game, the board #2 of the 1st edition became board #10 in 2019 edition, because in the latter a second beginner board (in 4 copies) was added, and they gave it the number 2 (so the old board #2 got relegated to # 10). In the BGA implementation, since 2019 edition's board #2 is available, even with the 1st edition option, I gave player boards the numbers of 2019 edition.

You can see 1st edition's boards here (should be the same as your link) and 2019 edition's boards here

I thought this page did a nice job of summarizing all the boards in an easy-to-read fashion:

Beware: this page uses the numbers from the 1st edition (see my post just above), and BGA's implementation uses the numbers from 2019 edition, so #2 on this page is #10 on BGA.

Where can I find the difference of the first edition vs 2019 edition?
If there is an option, it may be also good to to indicate the information of the different option?

Thinking of bringing this up as a new player myself, since we are on this topic.
