We played Uprising last night (but with no expansions). So good.

Yeah - I was hoping to get it played last night but our game of Dune: Imperium (3 new players) went really long :)

Btw - got a chance to learn Venusian Vegas yesterday. Looks really fun and I’m excited to get it played soon!

Unfortunately we’re not making it out next week.

Was at Gamer’s Guild in AZ yesterday and saw Gems on the shelves there! Great job getting it out there!

It does indeed! I was taught the game and still couldn't use the iconography to figure out what was going on for a couple turns.

LOL - I think you misunderstand! I didn't say it was my favorite Knizia (not even close) but we laughed more playing this one then any others I've played before.

I'm not the Knizia hater on our show - that title goes to Chris. I think his designs are great!

Some of my favorite upgraded components.

I'm playing this for the first time on Thursday! Been on my radar for a while.

That must be the OG Tuscany. I don't think Essential Edition includes that module.

I think we’ve been doing that the same since we started 5 years ago!

I really dislike decisions by committee which is why most coops aren’t for me. In this game each player is building out their own tableaus and activating actions on their own. We did a tiny bit of collaboration each turn but I definitely felt like I got to play my own game.

I'm not sure I could make it to 10 but I would actually like to make a top co-ops list at this point. Not sure if my co-hosts could even make it to 5 :)

That’s what my friend was saying while we were playing. I definitely want to check it out now.

Do those also use the bag building to trigger powers mechanism? Because that was the coolest part.
