Inns & Cathedrals / King & Scout

Wow !!!!!!!!!

We got these two expansions today , along with the dragon & princess, although didnt play with that today.

Just two of us playing with river I/II, T&B, The Count, and the two above, what a game. I was trailing by nealry 100 points as I kept pulling road tiles whilst my friend was building cities and scoring big time, however the game turned as he was going for a cathedral city with over 14 tiles and he failed to complete it, thanks to me getting the tiles he wanted and using them elsewhere. I finally finsihed holding the king and robber baron, two trades and won with over 240 points, my friend finished 40 points behind. These expansions make sucha difference, now I have to add in my fishing variation to see how it goes.

14 tile cathedral unfinished, that's gotta hurt!

Oh yeah it was sooooooooo sweet when the tiles ran out and he hadnt completed it....well it was for me anyways. It would have been on heck of a city, he even had the new cross over city piece from Kings & Scout in it. Would have finished me off if he did complete it.

Big cities often grow a lot when we play. It's alomst as important to add sides to Sara's cities as it is to finish my own. Yes - we play pretty agressiv. She usually doesn't start that way though, but the need to retaliate grows fast 

Cathredals can be cruel - no points for unfinished cities - but it's quite satisfactory to place one in an opponent's city in the late end game!
