Scythe

@IWillNeverGrowUp:

I’ve got it! I think I may have been the first in Canada to have it delivered … at least it felt that way when I posted about it on Facebook!
Or at least the first vocal one. lol.

Absolutely!

@djensen:

I considered FMGCon this year but looks like it won’t work out. Maybe next year. I wish Southwest would hurry up and fly to Canada.

If you come next year, I will have for you 6 bottles of beer from one of Ontario’s best micro breweries called 5 paddles brewery.

@djensen:

I ordered a “leftover” Collectors Edition yesterday.

I agree with the replayability. It also seems like it would lend itself well to expansions.

Since there is no new A&A content, I’m considering starting to cover other games like this.

I kind of wish I went in on the Collectors edition instead of the lower tier. Those metal coins and “realistic resource” pieces are so nice.
Then again, they don’t affect gameplay so it’s just a nice upgrade to have. :)

Would that collectors edition be available for retail soon, or was it only offered to kickstarter backers?

Stonemaier Games don’t do Kickstarter exclusive content, so everything is or will be available soon (if not now) through their website and/or other retailers.

Found this awesome “how to play Scythe” video with a run-through within the tutorial. Excellent production quality for a YouTube how to… should be very easy to learn Scythe with this vid.

You can buy upgrade kits for Scythe.  So you can turn your regular edition into a Art Connoisseurs Edition if you are willing to lay the cash down for it.  The only difference is the real editions have a collector’s number on it and it says “Art Connoisseurs Edition” underneath the title.
