Commenting @ 7:56: I think you should have played 10-11-3 all wood and point. You force red to either go 9-4-11, 9-2-10 or 6-3. Either he chooses, you have expansion to get wheat on the 9. You could also race to the 3-8 wood port.
If red picks the 9-4-11, they get the wood and brick resources because its their second settlement. And because red is first up, they can instantly plow you on round 1.
I think 9 4 11 point to 9 10 2 is better, he’s never picking that over the other open spot. You can then move to the brick port as you have no use for the ore port. What do you think?
nice! cornering the brick and staying out of the talk paid off!!
I play much better without the table talk online. Typing is something I struggle with because I lose focus. Still trying to improve on that
Good game for sure. Im starting a new drinking game, drink whenever you say "no reason not to". 😄
hahaha yea, I do say that quite a bit. Also "Interesting"
great win and not even a single city!
Yea, I was thinking we'd need one too... but then that opening for the army appeared!

You are right. That's why suck at this game. @@devetefan
Yes, the joys of the "Insta-Plow" - we all fall into that trap sometimes :)
