nice work Nathan however I have to say I think (maybe its implicit) this is really only for people with some kind of game experience. The number of moving parts and different small options and features IMO go well beyond a simple 15-20 minute explanation to a non gamer. I know Petras mum likes the look of this and I bet she would enjoy it, but I know she will completely freak out at the sheer number of little points that you need to know about to play the game.
I've printed out your great play aids, luckily the missus is well trained so I think we will get going with it pretty easily, I agree with you its one of those games that just seems complicated but most of it is pretty self explanatory and I bet quickly remembered. I will definitely post back here if and when I get the in laws to give it a go!
Nathan is right, I have just downloaded it without captcha.
Your file is great, I believe it would work perfectly with a list of "frequently forgotten rules". I began working on one, I may share the first four items with you: 1 - Fair - when choosing a place to put your "Peritos", remember to earn the Fair points immediately AND remember that during the fair phase, only the two correspondant colors will be available for you. For example, if you choose a spot with yellow and red, you may only play specialists of that color then.
2 - The bonus action space of Bank (letter C, third row) is not a regular action of moving your account, it is to raise one degree of your investment track.
3 - One do NOT get extra Porto tiles ever, only get two tiles with the first vinicola for the entire game.
4 - One do NOT take money tiles when selling wine, the money is due on the bank track.
Thank you, Lee. You make a very good point. I simply wouldn't even try to play this with non-gamers, so the thought never crossed my mind.
