At its heart it's a simple area majority game, but the way you get your pieces into the areas, and what the areas are worth, makes things interesting. <br /><br />There's lots of room for clever, and mean, strategising within the chaotic structure. And it's fairly short too, though it seemed longer last night because of the rules explanation - I was a little rusty on the finer points.<br /><br />Gonz made the point that the game felt a bit too long for its lightness/chaos, but playing again would be quicker I think.

I get the feeling on the next play he might get the win Andrew and I had predicted last night. But then again, we were wrong last night. <br /><br />Interestingly I felt in control of my destiny in Concordia and came last. In Havana I felt completely out of control and won. Games, eh?
