I use the exact same containers from the Dollar Tree. They are the perfect size and work great. You can't really beat the price either!

These are not that uncommon to run into in brick and mortar stores, as it was still being actively supported with printings until Mayfair got eaten up by Asmodee; so if you want to find one I would try scouring your local stores first.Barring that: I highly doubt that they will let it languish without a reprint as the game clearly is still selling given the prodigious number of printings it has gone through at this point.

Wowwwwwww.
I honestly wouldn't have even thought that was possible. What did you spend the game doing? How many loans did you end up with that you could't pay back?

I agree it's pretty stunning to hear you can get a negative score. Like sure you could take a bunch of loans during the game and not be able to repay some of them back...but I agree what possible actions could you take that would lead to such a situation? I mean you presumably got a few buildings for some points, and hopefully got a few boats along the way. Then ship once or twice and you easily should at least be in the positives for points.
About the only scenario I can imagine is one where you just never made boats and constantly fed yourself off loans.
Or....hrmmm. New guess is that you played loans wrong. You only have to pay one coin interest, regardless of how many loans you already have. I could see how you could get a negative score if you were paying one franc per loan every time interest was due and got into a horrible cycle of taking out massive number of loans.

Hi.Maybe we were playing a rule incorrectly?
It was the two-player, shortened game. We both had one building and one ship at the end. Indeed, we ran out of food super-quickly. I had ten loans at the end?
Wow, am I laying it all out here... Embarrassing. Heh.
I think we profoundly misunderstood something. By the time the wharf was available, the game was five or six rounds in, so we’d already sunk ourselves (haha) trying to feed the ravenous French hordes.
Anybody wanna swing by my place and give a quick teach? :whistle:

Just a thought - you were only paying 1 Franc interest TOTAL for your batch of loans (which is correct) and not 1 Franc per loan?

We didn't even get to the Interest bit. (It was the second token.)↧

This comment makes so little sense that I’m positive you were playing the game fundamentally wrong. Maybe if you walk us through how a couple rounds go from your perspective we can get to the bottom of it?

Oops. Haha. Haaaahaaaa.I was waaaaay off. We were playing one round (in the two-player game) as two-turns-per supply action token, instead of seven actions!
No wonder.
Thanks for your input, all.
Now if you’ll excuse me while I go crawl into a digital hole.

No worries! Most of us have at least one embarrassing rules story, more likely several. It happens.
Go try the game the right way--you should wind up with numerous buildings and boats by the end, even in a short game. And you should wind up with a positive score. (Not saying negative is impossible, but I would almost think you'd have to try for such a result).

Thread: Le Havre:: Strategy:: No boats strategy is the best.
by jrdercks
So I’ve tried out the Coke strategy and the Steel strategy, but I can’t beat the ‘no-boats’ strategy reliably. Am I the only person who thinks the most-efficient strategy is to forego board altogether? (Primarily: Abboriter and bake house, butnLso just paying in $ rather than food).↧

You're nuts ;)
Either you're playing something wrong or your opponents aren't very good.
