Can't say that I really know much about the board game.

If you'd have come to Origins you could have played a round with David Thompson himself.  :whistle:

We could pack him up and ship him over there. But the shipping costs alone...

Probably would cost more to ship him rather than fly him.

So...we could ship his weight in copies of Pavlov's House via British Air! Coach, of course...this isn't id Software or anything.  :D

That isn't David Thompson, it's actually 10 copies of Pavlov's House, 3 of Castle Itter, and a couple copies of Undaunted: Normandy dressed in an overcoat.

The Steam game is essentially a complete port of the board game. No additional bells and whistles, but there is a tutorial to help you get the hang of the interface. I've played twice now...lost badly first by -28 points, then -11 just now. I'm getting better. I've played the board game and have done much better than this, so I don't know if it's just that it's been a few months since I played and I'm rusty, or the game interface takes some getting used to. Or (c) I just suck, which is more than likely the culprit.

I've the deluxe physical version and have no need of this sans MP, but it is a most commendable design for co-op play.

Solo play, well, who needs that?
