We use Agricola fences to mark building ownership.

hmmm...interesting!
I guess that keeps from having to move the cards around so much, and makes their position easier to keep track of.
Are their any other benefits to doing it like this?

Having all the cards in the same place also seems to help everyone keep track of what options are available. We just lay the fence on the one part of the card that doesn't matter once it's built; the bottom where the required materials are to build it.

I stole it too. Or did I copyleft it? I get so confused when I'm out there pillaging ideas....

Anyway, great idea, worked like a charm, made me ashamed for not thinking of something similar, etc.

Interesting idea.

I don't find that I have a hard time looking over the options (after the first 3-4 games that is). However, the proximity of cards makes me favor the ones I have built over other players' buildings. Maybe putting them all together will help me to consider every building as an equal option.

I might use my extra Steam tokens to do this same thing (I got one of the copies with tokens for 10 different player colors).

Paul! Thank you so much for this idea! I've completely stolen it for our games of Le Havre!

We also start the game with all of the buildings showing. I've recently described my set up in this thread:

Thanks again!
