by vonweitzel Le Harve can be brutally unforgiving, especially in a 4+ player game. Agricola, not so much. While the wife and I love Le Harve, it is much better for 2-3 than 4+. Agricola is our choice...

by dyepbr I would put a vote in for Agricola for your group. 4 player Le Havre can be brutal and it can definitely take a very long time for a game.I do recommend buying mayday farmeeples/resourceeples...

by catmando To hijack the thread: have you or your group tried Caylus?The catch-up mechanisms in Caylus are excellent, IMHO. It is possibly a shorter playtime, the strategies aren't hard to get on...

by astroglide I think Caylus is more AP-prone than Agricola, and in the worst way - the decision tree expands as the game proceeds, so turns get progressively slower.I won't play Caylus or Le Havre...

by ron42na Thanks for all of the comments!I decided to go with Agricola mainly because "what to do" seems a bit more guided (at least initially), and I think the theme will go over better with my...

by Bruiser419 I've never played this before. Would the iOS be a good way to try it out and see if I like it?

by moldndecay I don't believe that it's so much of a big deal. They will all be face up after the first turn and stay where they lay for the rest of the game. IMHO, if it really concerns you, keep them...

by Clipper You can easily solve the problem without replacement by putting the tiles in a bag or cup and drawing one randomly as each turn starts during the first round. This will keep the same...

by sfox It doesn't matter. I'm sure Uwe thought he had a good reason for the tiles starting face down, but in the grand scheme of things it is very arbitrary and certainly doesn't add anything to the...
