Then, when I started looking more closely, I realized that you designed both Charterstone and Viticulture, of which were also huge fans (10 minutes ago we finished playing Viticulture, Tuscany expansion with special structures AND special workers).

Good player count, village/city building theme, and some legacy mechanics(the possible weak point IMO)? Thanks! Jamey, stickers on the board is a dealbreaker for me no matter that the game is still playable after the first campaign. I did a quick spot check through each of the other sections of cards and the stickers peeled off correctly. I usually fullyverse myself with a games rules before I take a new game to our group. I am quite certain that this is something you guys have already thought of, so I am not worried. Will the amount of players change the way future games turn out?

You will now see a blank custom list on the screen. Far from it; it is a testament to the fact that the game has so many things that are fun and exciting and interesting and cool we just really wish we had the players (virtual or not) to ensure that every possible opportunity for discovery had been there.

Apparently I should do that more often ;), Then after Charterstone you make an expansion that you play where your village is attacked by goblins, orcs, ogres, then dragons and you start ripping off stickers from the board. The end of the story was such that things look rather well, I am not going to spoil anything. Thanks a lot and thanks for your availability.and sorry for my english XD Objective done.
