Back down to the farm - Agricola players wanted

Hardco has the right answer: it was just my Master Shepherd needing me to confirm where I’d like my sheep installed. KYakerDude’s taking the first actual turn of the round.

I ended up taking the first turn as expected. It was the Master Shepherd that did it.

Thanks.

Congrats on getting one of the most unbalanced cards in the game! :wink:

Uh, we’ve seen a lot of complaints about some cards being unbalanced, but Master Shepherd has never been one of them…

Not sure if serious, but the response was directed at Kyakerdude’s Lover!

Thanks, lets see if I can make it work for me. I’ve managed to feed him this first harvest round. I remember you played it in one of our games. You would have beaten me anyway. :slight_smile:

Just read this a second time. Out of context; how do you know my lover? :smile:

I’ve played with them often, and they were always overpowering!

@Hardco crushed us all, getting 61 pts. He didn’t even need a fireplace or cooking hearth–he had a lot of food coming in from minor improvements (and the Apprentice). The harbor master occupation, landing net, and private forest helped him get started quickly and build many rooms, sometimes 2 at a time. He got 5 family members fast, ended with 6 stone rooms thanks to the Quarry. Good job!

Yep, it was clear fairly early on that Hardco had stolen quite the march on the rest of us and it was going to be a squabble for second place. (Which I managed to edge, though not without a great deal of regretful staring at occupations and improvements in my hand that would have been splendid had I managed to get them down four rounds ago.) Congratulations @Hardco, and let’s see if we can make a better showing in the rematch!

I’m going to chalk my last place performance up to re-learning the game… :wink:

You unfortunately ended up with the position of being blocked from your first family growth by my second and third. By that point there wasn’t much you could do… The most limited resource in 4p is building rooms and family growth!

I’ll throw my name in the ring for a practice game if anyone is interested. mhatke on playdek

Need to shake off the rust!

Redownloading on my phone and will send out an invite

I should probably relearn this game, I have not played since it came out. kennfusion

I’m interested in a friendly game.

Alright I’ve accepted both games. That’s enough raised stress for the holidays. Good luck all :slight_smile:
