You cannot just jump into this game and play a solo version. I had literally no idea what I was doing. I think I'll need to read through the rules before i start. This makes it sound like you can literally just start a solo game and pick it up as you go.
I agree. Started up a game and I have really NO IDEA what I 'm doing there, just checking things. But don't know why. It is very complex. This one definitely needs a tutorial!

Same here - jumping right into the solo game was a rather disappointing experience. This game would benefit from having a tutorial.

How to say you're new to the BGA community without saying you're new to the BGA community. Welcome.

Ned is frequently incorporated in the artwork whenever a new game is released on BGA.

Yeah this 100%, I dont know how anyone can look at the multiple icons and check boxes and think this needs no explanation at all. I tried jumping right in and had no idea what or why i was ticking boxes.

I agree with Cogoletto. Please revise the language if you could. The Picts were not savages. I honestly would rather play a game where I was the Picts driving off the Roman invaders... New Spirit Island expansion maybe??

Thanks, Avandich! I'd like to play the Picts, too. The irritating thing is that the Romans named them the Picts, but they were just another group of Celts defending their land. I don't blame the person programming the game for BGA, however. I'd just like to see the language improved.

I found a couple bugs. Both times were when a section lit up with a red circle, as in ready to select, but you could not. This happened twice in one game, once while i was trying to activate the large granary, and the other time I forget. I wanted to report it but the reporting system confused me. Has anyone else seen this bug?
