A nice game, where as Greece I managed to get a very strong army and defeat Spain and Arabia.

Democracy is very good combined with the right choosing of techs.

It was good to see the altoght Arabia and Spain are good civs, the right amount of planning combined with a little luck and you can destroy both of them.

Next up was Civilization. ... Ugh. Not my kind of game. Way too many moving parts, especially for a learning game at a convention. To be honest, it's too many moving parts for me in general.

Math Trade time! Matt plonked down my spanking new copy of this and accepted the 'Random Box Bag Of Stuff' which I had traded with pretty good grace, considering the amount of redundant shelf-filler that was in it.

How terrible is to setup this great game, almost take 30 minutes to deploy with 2 person making the setup. You should use plastic bags for each player to improve the setup time.

Have some satisfaction placing the tiles face down.

You MUST! in this one if not it would be a mess!

i seen some people that store their game throwing the chits at the box after playing, this one shouldn´t be if you want to setup in a decent time.

"Interesting and relatively fast for a civilization game, and multiple paths to victory that don't simply involve different ways to get points. There is so much going on with every card and tile that it's a massive mental undertaking for me just to focus on one of the paths." (The Eye)

Do multiple paths mean big games?

Well, the paths have not been balanced, nor are they supposed to be balanced. One of them (Tech) acts more as a game timer, to prevent the game from getting too long (unless you're Greece or Russia). Then there was Economy being OP and Culture underpowered in the base game... and vice versa when the expansion is added in.

But multiple paths don't always have to mean big games. Something like Grimoire or Citadels could be said to have multiple paths to victory.

Funny, I've never thought of this game as especially time-consuming, relative to other civ-builders.

Chaos is the best game ever. I don't care what people say. Civ is good, but Chaos is always the better game.

Had a game in yesterday. Confirmed my vote. There are two things admittedly better in Power Grid compared to this particular Civ. The game time and the new player-friendliness. Really bugs me when people try to sell PG as the "better" game per se. Power Grid is a perfectly drawn Hangman. This is a slightly imperfect Mona Lisa.

All the components are in great condition. The box base has a tear on the edge, it doesn't make the components fall out but it's there, and a few inches.

Starting Bid: 20.00

BIN: 35.00
