crowded board

[Ammakitty]

The board is too small.... even for 4 players, a larger board would be nice.

The board is fine. You just have to learn better strategies how to win. Generally you need either longest road or largest army or VP cards. Just building settlements and cities is hardly ever a good way to win.

I refuse to play four player games because of how crowded the board gets. I like three player games best.

...and others prefer 4p games, because they say with 3 players it is usually too easy and too fast for one player to develop by just being lucky with the dice at the beginning...
