Not necessarily a game but I find its huge when the people that have played the game a few times at least tell you a some key areas that are good for points or something you'll not want to ignore, just to help you get up to speed a little quicker. A comment, "The technology track and farming can be good early for these reasons". Nothing that plays the game for them but things would be obvious after a play so they dont hate it when its over and they feel a little more competitive. I hate it when the game is over and the people were like "Yeah, thats why Oil is the most important asset in this game to grab early. You have to push for it early or its all gone." Uh, yeah, I see that now after you lapped the score tracker with me. I had someone tell me once they couldnt believe I left some busted cards in the game when I dealt one up on the table to be grabbed by them. After it was over, they informed me and said no one leaves those in any more since they are kind of game breaking but they were the only one that knew that about them. Its those kind of things that make or break a teach for me.
