Rufous is a color in the base game and on the Photographer card. (stonemaiergames.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/01/2019-01-09_1552.png) Was there another new color in Oceania that wasn't on this card?
Looks fun but as an aussie the bird choices are really strange. They chose alot of common birds. No love for any of our species of black cockatoos, or alot of other unique birds.
As an European guy, and bird lover i can assure you that European and american birds are also mostly common. I think it's better that way, i guess there are people who said "take a look, that's a bird from that game"
@@rafaljt I can agree with that. I'm just dissapointed about the black cockatoos. Yellow tail black cockatoos are extremely common, red tailed blacks not so much and glossy blacks are highly endangered and were severely affected by the fire. I just thought one of those 3 species would be great. But I'll still buy the expansion regardless. :)
@@hhinder5121 there are plenty of iconic European birds, like kingfisher f. E. That are also missing. Still, Bought mine expansion secs ago. Grettings from antipodes, from Poland.
It is strange. Dozens of boring sparrows and no love for example for the big northern european game birds. Maybe a game balance issue if they need the big ones for the wetlands? Would prefer exotic birds for sure.
Great video except for the pronunciation of Oceania. Nice to see birds that I recognise from my corner of the world.
It's pronounced Oh-she-ar-nia... signed, a Kiwi.
Appreciated the review. Background music was a bit annoying....
What's with the sudden perspective shift starting at 7:45? I was like "Who is he talking to?" xD
No more green screen, unlike the head-on perspective?
"Oh-She Ahh Knee-Ah"
So, if there are new player boards is this gonna be a big box expansion (unlike the European brids one)? I worry about the price point.
It's bigger than European but much smaller than base box. They mentioned they are working on a larger storage system.
looking forward to buy this expansion.

My photographer card also lists Violet but not in that .png file
@@winn8137 Interesting. Does yours have the corrected points?
Dude!!!! I'm actually blown away. Your scratchy hand writing is the exact same as mine. I cant believe that's my take away from this video.
The link to the Tang Garden review is not below this video (as of late October).
Good review. I appreciate that you discussed some of the nuanced rules questions that often come up in the community.
Glad you enjoyed it!
Great review. Thanks for explaining the pros and cons of nectar.
Love Wingspan... but I won’t be getting this. To many changes make the game unnecessarily more complex.
You can play without the nectar stuff. That's my plan for awhile
If I want to get just 1 expansion, which one should I get, this one or the European? Thanks!
This one adds more, but I assume more expensive.
I just want a simple one that adds better goals
When are they finally going to do something exciting with the colors of the eggs...?
They won't do anything gameplay wise (if that is what you are asking) because it wouldn't work for color blind people.
