|
|
Game 25772, Map 101 (which I enjoy for 2 players) has come to a quick halt. I've managed to paint myself into a corner with only 1 peso, no animals and all of the harvest tokens have been used.
I'd like some feedback ... what is the proper gaming etiquette for this?
Gracias!

you can steal an opponent's harvest token:)

"Stealing" is hardly an appropriate word, when this action allows them to harvest again.
Perhaps he means he has already used harvest on all his land chains, though.
BTW, do you think this is an inherent problem with the map? (just asking as author...) |

all the small maps have a potential for grid lock
and with 3, 4 or 5 players there may be more cards in the game
than playable hexes ---

A few days after I posted this Casulo graciously stepped up and took one of the harvest tokens off my land which freed me up to perform actions. It got sticky because I wasn't watching my pesos and had already harvested all of my land chains. Casulo deserved the win in this one.
This is one of my favorite 2 player maps Mooslander. You have to be terribly efficient and superbly cautious with your actions. |
