My group also really enjoys Among the Stars, which has an element of multi-use cards (you can play the card, get money, get a reactor, or invite an ambassador)... I'll have to re-watch your run-through of Bruges to see if it would be too big a step beyond that.<br /><br />Of course, Bruges doesn't seem to be in print anyway, but I assume it will get reprinted.<br /><br />Anyway, thanks again!

I definitely had my eye on that Notre Dame reprint, since I haven't played it yet and have heard mostly good things about it (plus, it has a mini-expansion to Castles of Burgundy, which is my current favorite game).<br /><br />I was hoping for some advice, though: My group tend to like lighter games, and I'm just now coaxing them into trying some Euros. They liked Burgundy, but found it a bit heavy. They like Viticulture a lot. Do you think I should go for the Notre Dame reprint, or should I consider Bruges instead? What would be the pros and cons of either decision?<br /><br />If you get a free minute, I'd love to know your thoughts. Either way, keep up the awesome work!Michael Gonzalezhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05279261871735286117noreply@blogger.com
