Kingdom Builder suggestions

Do you considered more variable board setup? Like segment up side down?

Is that an official variant ?

Is that an official variant ?

Yes, you can use any combination. Thread on boardgamegeek, where Donald confirmed that.

I think I didn't understood the first post, upside-down quadrants are already implemented here.

I'm sorry, I can see that now. I was a little confused that the place icons are also rotated.

So thank you! It's very good adaption.

Any plans for expansions?

We are waiting the game to be released (by the end of month) before starting to discuss expansions with the publisher.

MAKE THE BASE GAME OF KINGDOM BUILDER PLAYABLE BY 5 PLAYERS

I would like to see Kingdom Builder enhanced so that it can handle 5 players instead of just 4 max. There has been discussion on this on the BoardGameGeek discussion boards at https://boardgamegeek.com/thread/833936/5-players

Finally, the expansion adds a 5th player. They asked me what changes I'd want if any for 5-6. I said I wasn't keen myself to play with 5-6, but some people always want to, and maybe 5 was reasonable. I had already played with 5 with the main game, and found that it worked fine; you just spend more time waiting for your turn, like you'd expect. I also tried adding two boards (so, playing with six boards at once) to see how that went. It was also fine, although then you need to decide what you're doing about the scoring cards that are affected by this, especially Farmers. As you can see they decided to support 5 without rules changes. You just use up more of the space. "

Yes, it will take longer with 5 players than 4. But some game groups have a committed 5 players who will bypass Kingdom Builder because it prevents 5 "committed pals" from playing all together. Yes, IF you incorporate expansions that will allow 5 players, you'll be able to handle 5 players...but even the base game without expansions should be able to handle 5 players. Electronically, I'd think it would be simple to incorporate a 5th player.

5 players mode added !

ARENA MODE
Does the Arena Mode really has to be with four players? It takes ages to find three opponents. Playing two-player game in Arena Mode would be just great!
