One thing you didn't cover is the coffee dealer. Does he work the same as the governor and smuggler? He gives you some coffee for a cost and then randomly goes somewhere else? with the bigger board, does that affect where pieces randomly go after encounters? I could see a d20 being included in the expansion as a nice touch.
+Colin Gillespie yup that's how he works. a d20 wouldn't work as well because the game is designed with 2d6's in mind which is most likely to produce a 7 which is the town fountain, so the mechants are most likely to congregate there :)
Hi rahdo please make a gameplay video of either Istanbul letters and seals expansion or Istanbul grand bazaar with both expansions....There is not a single gameplay video on TH-cam for letters and seals exoansion
Hi . I have a few queries about this expansion 1. Do I need to place the barricade immediately or can I place it later on in the game? 2. If I have already placed barricade tile at a location.....Can I change its position to somewhere else? If yes then how? 3. Also can we do all the three actions of tavern and roasting plant in one turn?
I still like the game with the new features of this expansion but will probably pass on the second expansion coming out soon (Post Office) boardgamegeek.com/boardgameexpansion/192779/istanbul-brief-siegel
Little clarification, baksheesh means tipping in Turkish and Ottoman language :)

Good review, as usual, thanks
P.s Baksheesh means tip, from tipping the waiter or so
