8:45 You can only do each palace location three times. The Great Mogul doesn’t allow you to do another palace location more than three times. You cross out another palace location and take that action, when you cross out one of the spaces of the Great Mogul. :)
Nice review. Rajas of the Ganges is among my favorite games. I'm not the greatest fan of roll n write type games, but surprisingly several came out last year that really interested me, such as charmers, troyes dice, and trails of tucana. Dice charmers is a great distillation of the big game. My only complaint would be that for that type of game, it is a bit long. We played rajas at full count anywhere from 50-75 min, so kinda wish this one (only played at 2) would take less than 30 min. The components are indeed beautiful, those sheets are amazing! still keeping this one. Have you tried troyes dice? that one I really enjoy.
I agree with you on the length of playing RotG Dice Charmers: It does take longer than you think to play it, but it does beat pulling out all the other components and board space with the original game. Great suggestion about Troyes Dice (www.boardgamegeek.com/boardgame/284584/troyes-dice).
@@TabletopTolson you're right! it is easier to pull, I just love me some rajas :) charmers is indeed a blast, I was impressed how well it takes aspect of the big game and ends up in a great shorter variant. I have laminated sheets that I take when travelling. Great video and hope you get to play Troyes dice :)
I’m really disappointed about this video. It advertises itself as a rule explanation video rather than a review. But it lacks core information about how the game works. Not mentioning the rule misunderstanding that was pointed out in previous comments. How the game ends exactly? I mean after crossing the two tracks, how you count the winner? How does karma points work in process? How does 2 player variant works exactly? It lacks a lot of info despite it’s lenght.
Sorry you were really disapponted. Taking a turn or two (as the title states) gives players a feel for the game. I appreciate that style. If you want every detail of the game, please refer to the rulebook.
Very Nice (as usual). And even though it doesn't seem to call me to play ... it never-the-less was fun watching you play and explain the game! Thanks!
Thanks!

Great catch there: you're right. The Great Mogul gives players flexibility, but not extra actions, so to speak:)
Great Video! Thank you!
8:04 - actually, you don't get the bonus until you sell all of the goods in a tent (pg 20 of rulebook)
Yes, that's accurate!
