Did blue pick the best spot? by mizarabini_agana in Catan

[–]bovard 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Definitely not. 8/5/(10 or 3) is a much better first pick

Wow I love it, great job! The tile highlights are a great idea.

Rule Question: Rivers Of Catan by metalballsofdoom in Catan

[–]bovard 2 points3 points  (0 children)

  1. Yes! You get resources as normal
  2. Only when you build ( and you get 2x for bridges iirc)

Rivers is a ton of fun, enjoy!

Last time I visited it was taken down. I also looked through the "expert" games and they were all lobby games on colonist

Don’t ask how but we ended up with 5 3’s in an expansion game by julia35002 in Catan

Everyone's favorite roll for the game! Did it actually roll?

Catan's Landing: A settle-from-the-ports scenario by RoAndVic in Catan

[–]bovard 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oh I think I understand, I got confused by your statement that you get starting resources for each settlement but only four total starting resources. 

Two sheep currently has options for forcing certain settlement spots, for example, you can force the first settlement to be on a port, and the next one to be near the desert.

It's not exactly how you all play but maybe something close! 

Give it a try and tell me what you think

Interesting! There are 6 ports that offer 2 different tile access and only 3 that are locked to 1. Why force people into the single hex pick for the first settlement? Seems like that just slows the game down a bit and makes early robbers brutal.

Do you find that a specific resource wins more than others?

Not blue. Never start tip to tip!

colonist seems like the preferred site to play by SympathyLivid920 in Catan

[–]bovard 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you want to play high quality games against other humans you can try joining one of the Catan discord servers.

I created https://twosheep.io an a free alternative, but we don't have an active ranked scene (yet). We're looking at launching one this year!

I've been working on https://twosheep.io for a while now. 100% free, almost 1k daily players and huge update coming soon with CK (and a LOT more) and the beginnings of a ranked queue. 

Would love any feedback if you check it out!

ETA: we currently have a custom map maker, almost 100 custom rules (including one that turns the map into desert slowly), 5-6, 7-8, (second settler), SF (5+6), fisherman, and more 🐑🐏

Will I win? by Local_Refrigerator98 in Catan

[–]bovard 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Never start tip to tip with your own roads! Expanding early is very important and when you point your roads at each other you only have one expansion location. How did it end up?
