    As a teacher, I get frustrated when people "teach" a game in a video by basically reading the rule book. For example, most tutorials will explain the whole set up first, but if you don't know what anything means, it's very hard to process that until later. You break it down very nicely, and explain bits of the set up when it becomes relevant. Thank you!

    6:58 Is that true that's canal needs to be connected to coal to lay it? I didn't see that in the rules, just that it needs to extend your network
    For rail era it does mention this rule, which makes sense because you need to consume coal for the action

    • @pasta0328
      @pasta0328 Год назад

      Technically when she stated this, she did show a rail. But she never called it out. Seconds beforehand she was showing canals 🤔
      I'll assume only need coal connection for rails since canals don't consume coal

    • @GamesMadeEasy
      @GamesMadeEasy  Год назад +1

      Hello! I should have been clearer that it is for the rail era only that it needs to connect to coal as it is needed to build it. Canal era only needs money so no coal necessary. I will pin a comment, thank you.

    One question
    Do i have to build in order buildinge. First, level 1, 2,3...
    Or can i build level 3 before 2 or 1 onto a space
    Can i overbuild my level 4 building onto level 1 building

    • @GamesMadeEasy
      @GamesMadeEasy  Год назад +1

      Thank you! You need to do them in order; alternatively you can develop to access higher level buildings.
      You may overbuild one of your own with a higher level of the same type building, it can be as you say level 4.
      I hope this helps, enjoy the game :)

    Two questions after playing a few games and watching your video:
    1. Can I always choose to buy iron from the bank instead of using one from my opponent (to not help him)?
    2. Overbuilding: Do I loose victory points when overbuilding a flipped industry tile and not managing to flipp the new one? VP of flipped tiles are only counted at the end of an era, that’s why I ask.
    The brewery visible at 13:37 is invalid, you can’t build there without a link to it. ;)

    • @GamesMadeEasy
      @GamesMadeEasy  2 года назад +3

      Hello Sascha, thank you for your comment. I hope can clarify below some your questions:
      1 - The short answer is no. The board needs to be depleted before you go to the iron market. If there are ironworks on the board with iron on them, you need to use those first.
      2 - Yes, you will lose the points.
      On minute 13:37 the brewery is valid because it's a level 2 and it may have been built in the canal era. All level 2 or greater industry tiles remain on the board for the rail era. :)
      Enjoy the game!

    If you don’t have any industry tickets on the board, meaning you can put down a card/ticket that requires coal but your obviously not connected. Do you still have to buy the coal from the market?

    • @GamesMadeEasy
      @GamesMadeEasy  3 года назад +2

      Sorry for the delay. For any tile that you place that requires coal, you have to be connected to coal, either the market (which means you have to have a connection to it) or a coal mine. I hope this helps.
