Guys. Yesterday we played some new boardgame: https://boardgamegeek.com/boardgame/169786/scythe

I can recommend. The pretext is very neat: some alternate Post-WW1 reality, where the world was devastated due to the advanced military technology (Steampunk-like Battle-Walkers etc.).

Now its mainly farming and some mining what nations do. Borders have no real meaning anymore. Its more of a survive, and trying to live with your enemies as direct neighbors. So War plays not so much a role, you can have skirmishes with your neighbors, but its costly and best you can hope for is to scuttle them off and steal their resources.

Is very economic / planning focused. And has beautiful artwork and miniatures.

Very nice!

• Through the Ages: A  new story of Civilisation
  I can HIGHLY recommend.

I playing it all the time online here: http://www.boardgaming-online.com/index.php?cnt=2, because its too time consuming to play regularly as a board game.

If you like you can create an account there (is simple) and we can have a game there.

Thats a valid point.

One remark I have nevertheless: TtA plays totally easier online that does TripleA. I even do some moves on my smartphone when I am on the train or sth.

I hope you get some guys to play with you. If you get into it and past the (initially) complex rules, you will see the beauty of the game design and how awesomely it all fits together. Nothing else I can say. Its the best game ever.  :-)

Sorry for Editing here:

I accidentally used an Inf from Yunnan instead of the one in Sikang. I planned thoroughly what I needed to still hold Yunnan, before I moved, but then I misclicked.

Was an honest mistake. I hope you can see that.  :-(
