    It is overall a nice video. You made a little mistake at 3:20, sir. When a 7 is roll, you only have to discard when you have "more than 07" cards in hand, not "07 or more" cards.

    Just played a 5-player game the other day. Tried to get away with no starting ore, and minimal wheat. It went...poorly.
    Also, other board game content sounds cool!

    • @KenPlaysCatan

      Yeah, have done the same. And we'll likely do it again because THIS TIME it will work!

    Is the same true for 3-player games, or does the extra space for expansion change the most efficient strategies up a little?

    • @KenPlaysCatan
      @KenPlaysCatan  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      The strategy for 3 player is very different. You should check out www.catanforthree.com/ for 3 player strategy.
