Chris Geggus: Thanks all. Fun as usual. I've only recently started using the Harbor and it does seem to make a difference when pushed into a shipping strategy. I gained 6 points from it and won the game by 3, so seems to work when shipping at least 2 different items. I should have added a wharf to guarantee an extra shipment, but never had the right coins at the right time. Thanks again to Chris.

Andy York: My usual poor showing, did try a bit different strategy, but without any real success...there's always next time.

Great win to Chris G and a tip of the hat to Chris H for running the game.

Kevin Wilson: It always seems I’m short something needed. Usually doubloons but this time I always seemed to be short crops to ship when the time came. Close on buildings but Chris really ran away with getting goods shipped out. Well done to him.

Thanks to all for playing and to Chris for running the game. Let’s have another go soon.

Chris Hibbert: Fun game! It felt pretty tight up to the end. I know enough to be skeptical of the chances of winning with a pure trading/buying strategy, but it got really close until I got shut out of trading after round 11. I should have bought the Customs House rather than City Hall. It would have cost me two VPs, but Chris G would have lost 7.

Well played, Chris Geggus, and thanks to Chris Hassler for running the game.
