A great 'How To Play' video on a lot of overlapping rules. This video has broken all aspects of the game into manageable chunks and I look forward to playing this game now. Thanks, Paul. 👍🏻
Enjoyed the video, am really excited for my copy to arrive. I think when I played the first time, I messed up the Contract action providing "extra" tier support, which would have made it much easier to aggressively push for stronger powers. Thanks for the great content! It was very well explained, and I could have used it instead of parsing the rulebook for.... like 90 minutes, haha.
I backed this on Kickstarter and am dreading teaching it when it arrives. This is a major help, but I still have a feeling it’s going to be painful...especially that bidding phase.
I hope the new rulebook is a lot clearer, took me ages working on it, especially the part about the bidding phase. Hopefully, the little chart I showed in this video explains it. As for teaching it to others... easy... Sit at the table, put on this video, press play. Guaranteed to be 100% accurate and probably take the same time that it would be for you to teach it. I've done the hard work so you don't have to :)
Quite a lot to unpack here. I hope we will get some playthought in future =D BTW. why there is 2: -6 on illigal goods? You get -6 points at the end of the game, but why others are in form of 1:81:6.
Every Illegal Good is worth 2 for you at the end of the game, but if you have the most Illegal Goods, you lose 6 points. The 1:6 means that every good of that type is worth 1 point for you at the end of the game, but if you have the most of that particular good, you gain an additional 6 points. The 1:8 for the Luxury Goods means you get 8 points (instead of 6) at the end if you have the most Luxury Goods.
I can't believe how awful this version of the game looks. Those ship pieces are a tragedy and even worse are the little cardboard pieces you are supposed to put on top of them. Will this game retail for 10 bucks or what is the reason for this? It hurts my soul. I was looking forward to this one for a long time but this probably the worst component quality I have seen in a long time.

This is very helpful and clear! 👍
I am excited for this one to arrive. I was a huge fan of Glory to Rome, Race for the Galaxy, and San Juan so this is going to be a welcome addition.

Yeah, to get the powerful contracts into play earlier on, skipping actions to play higher tier ones can be useful.

Are flag expansion cards ineligible to be used as goods? Can they be imported?
Hi Paul - can you add this to the BGG page for Definitive edition as currently no how to play video comes up there.
Hy, Burt the credits accumulated during the Game ad up to the final score ? Thanks
