The Ocean - Deltas

[skipboris]

Here is a small expansion for the Ocean.  It simply adds deltas to the game for when playing with both the River and the Ocean.  Farmers get a small bonus.  Also included are catapult tiles for using the catapult on the Ocean side.  Let me know what you think!

The tile looks great.  I'm not sure I like the watermark, it looks more like tree roots or an octopus.  A simple greek letter delta might be a better watermark.

I'm not in love with it either.  The Delta character is a great idea though.

Boom.

I don't get it. This links to something called 'Trophy gag.jpg'. Did I miss the joke?

[Bietje]

Same for me.

Nope, not a joke, a mistake.  The trophy gag was for my fantasy football league and I posted it here by mistake.  Here is the good link:

That looks much better.

I have a couple of suggestions for corrections to the rules:

Page 1, Preparation section: "The Deltas expansion to the Ocean Makes it easier ..."
  Should be: "The Deltas expansion to the Ocean makes it easier ..."

Page 1 "Setups" section should be "Setup"
Page 1, Setup section: "If playing with one single river without any braches, the ..."
  Should be: "If playing with one single river without any branches, the ..."

I included these changes in the CAR 4.0.  Thanks very much for the feedback!

Question: Can the deltas be placed at right angles to the Ocean starter tile?

Question: Can the deltas be placed at right angles to the Ocean starter tile?

Under "Drawing an Ocean Tile" in the main rules, the third sentence states: "If extending the starter tile, a player may not place a tile so that it turns the beach perpendicular to the starter tile."

The Delta tiles are meant to be connected to the Farm ends of the starter tile.

I like that the color of the ocean changes from fresh to salt water and I like the more freeflowing play this will give.

I'm having the same sizing problems with these png files also. I've tried opening them in photoshop lite, saving them as pdfs, they still print off about  too small.
