Caverna Game I -- Round 10
« on: November 17, 2016, 02:59:35 pm »
Who wants to play a *long* game?

The random parts can be taken care of via die roll so the "moderator" can also play.  I don't think we really want to play with 6 or 7 unless we want to be playing into 2018, so I'm going to cap it at five.

Who's in?

1. Kirian
2. Jack Rudd
3. ghostofmars
4. Orange
5. pacovf

Rules are here:  https://boardgamegeek.com/filepage/95328/caverna-english-rules

Game spreadsheet is here:  https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1pp1bGUYP2xi3--kRf3SOthWXr0kbuNBiQ3ZFmrDx1PA/edit?usp=sharing

Evidence of thriving towns, Pottery, roads, and a centralized government amaze the startled scientists.

Finally, they come upon a stone tablet, which contains but one mysterious phrase!

Well, basically Agricola with no hand cards, a larger board, extra resources and more major improvements.  Oh, and your family is dwarves who can equip weapons and go on expeditions to get extra actions/resources.

Is this sort of game really adapted to PBF? If it's anything like Agricola, a single turn is going to take ages, no?

pacovf has a neopets account.  It has 999 hours logged.  All his neopets are named "Jessica".  I guess that must be his ex.

I'd expect it to take several months, yes.

Also, I'd forgotten I could edit people's posts.  Oops.

Unfortunately I don't know Agricola either. Played it once in my life over 3 years ago and haven't since. It is complicated? More complicated than, say, Carcasson?

Uh... yes.  Of the same magnitude that Civilization is more complex than Catan.  Or that Magic is more complex than Go Fish.

Your second example doesn't really do Carcassonne justice. :)

Well, you can do significantly more planning ahead in Go Fish than in Carcassone.

All right, we have five.  I'm still working on the spreadsheets but we'll start in a couple days.

For simplicity, seating order will be sign up order.

All right, spreadsheet is completely set up as far as I can tell.  You should all be able to edit it, because this is a friendly game and we trust each other.  Go ahead and choose a color for your tab (I call dibs on green!), then fill that color in as the background color for the "Used By" space in the line you've used.

Of course, also post here and tell us what you've done, so we know whose turn is next!

Woot, thanks!

By the way, Orange, I colored your tab orange because it amused me.  Feel free to choose something different :)

Small-scale drift mining

Since none of you made a mistake in the first action, I'll settle for ssdm.
