    Paul, thank you for the terrific video. I've read the rules which are well done, but this video really makes it clear how to play the game, although the strategies will be an ongoing discovery. I did have one clarification though -- when we first build a mine complex (2+ mines), we get to put a progress cube down in that fifth column showing the mineral, correct? However, that does not advance the LSS. I think that is right, but it is not really mentioned in the rulebook or the video, so I wanted to be sure.

    • @GamingRulesVideos
      @GamingRulesVideos  4 года назад +1

      I thought I did mention that in the rulebook and video, but you are correct. The first time you create or expand a mine complex, you get to put your Mine progress cube into the progress area. The LSS doesn't change, as Mines are not part of the LSS. So yep, looks like you got it right :)
