Now, I only need a few hours of spare time to play it with my friends…

I like the humor you use in the reviews, it makes them entertaining.

Because then it wouldn’t be the Scott that we’ve all grown to know and love. For me, it’s all about the silly pictures.

However, on one point you are apparently doing something odd and suggested it was a problem when it isn’t. Operations income in the final turn is doubled. You suggest that this causes a problem because you have to keep money aside (in case it needs to be doubled). This is not the case. Whether the game will end on a given turn is always known at the end of the Acquistions phase which occurs BEFORE the Operations phase. Thus, going into the Ops phase you know if this is the last turn and can simply make double payouts. I in no way try to separate out curent income for the turn from my other Cash.

I think this game really needs a FAQ and completely agree about the board graphic design problems but it is still my favorite released game of 2005 by a fairly wide margin.
