The Choice of tracks is unessesary.
When building tracks; it would be better if the player just marks the polygons and then use an algorithm to place the right type of tile (straight/bent/crossed). It would save a lot clicking and make the game much faster.
Only the final track, if left unconnected, needs a tile choice from the player.

The new zoom feature, and ability to float the city names above the track tiles, are fantastic, thank you!
I have two suggestions for the bidding process:
#1, let players select a maximum amount they're willing to pay to go first. Bidding is easily the slowest and most tedious part of a turn-based game; this will speed it up drastically. As an aid, I suggest also displaying the number of bonds the player will have to issue (if any) if their bid is successful.
#2, let players cancel or modify a bid any time before the next player places theirs. It will prevent hard feelings from misclicks.
Hopefully this is the right place for this. Great game, very happy to see the adaptation.

You can use "for of" to increase readability in javascript
Code: Select all
for (var board_hex in gamedatas.board)
{
var AHex = gamedatas.board[board_hex];
...
}
//Can be replaced with
for (var AHex of gamedatas.board)
{
...
}

Wow, I can't believe RotW is coming on BGA.
Excellent news, thanks a lot !!!
I don't know if it's planned to set it up but the alternated rule that you can find on BGG for 1st player biding is much better than the originial rules. (
https://boardgamegeek.com/filepage/4345 ... -order-map)
With the alternative rule, you can bid for any place, not just 1st place. It means you are not 2nd anymore because you're lucky to sit on the left to the 1st player. It also helps because most of the time, you want one specific player to play after you but you don't care about being the 1st player.
Gaming experience is really improved.
Anyway, thanks again for making this great game !!!
EDIT : if you need more players, I am in of course, i love this game

Thanks for the great game / implementation, maybe add an undo to help out with the occasional mis-deliver of cube.
