The "Land Grab" card does NOT require that you have two workers in your supply. As noted on page 5: "Players must have at least 1 available Worker when they use this card." Thus, you could grab two plots of land, building on one and placing a worker on the other. By the way, love the show and keep 'em coming! (Isle of Skye or Flick 'Em Up!!!)
I believe you can build a skyscraper in a plot of land that you took on the same turn. I have even watched videos with the representatives from Blue Orange games and they even said you can build on the land you just acquired. Unless you have different info, I could be wrong.
Ryan Dumais I just watched the video and I kept saying that while I was watching. "I thought you could claim and build immediately". It was driving me nuts.:)
@@stevefratus1546 I think I like their way better. When I've played there were rarely any builders on the board so you never had to worry about running out.
My wife says if I don't stop watching your videos she is going to hit me with the keyboard. But, another great game. I really enjoy watching all of your game demonstrations ibwufecwrwiuvcnnovs;ovnidfzof fj
I played this totally wrong, missed the rule about not being able to build on a lot you just drafted. If that's how it works, not sure why you don't build _first_ then draft a card.
Was Dave's best last build not to demolish the buildings on cedar and broadway and building the 9 point "step" building to get 4 extra points instead of just a 5 pointer? This move was open for about 3- 4 turns as well if i am not mistaken ...or am i just not getting it? Would seem like he would have gotten more presence on ceder than just the worker ^.^
It would be great if instead of cardboard cutouts, the various buildings were three-dimensional wood or plastic models, like in that 1999 edition of Acquire, or whatever year it was. I think a three-dimensional aspect would really add to the theme of creating those concrete canyons. I don't like the depiction of a church on the map. They could've made it anything else, a museum or library perhaps, instead of a religious building.
