Ticket to Ride

Post by NukeHavoc »

I really enjoyed this game; I think it's got that good balance of short and long game that makes the European games so much fun. I'm looking forward to trying it again, and see what other strategies we can bring to bear on it.

Yeah, I had a good time playing it too. I tried for a one-sided strategy to see if it'd work, and am happy to say it didn't. The game really rewards utilizing all the options available to the player, and makes risk-taking for bigger pay-off the way to go.

Yup. I think it's going to play nice and fast once we get used to it too. There was a lot of time wasted with us sitting there in a sleepy daze not realizing it was our turn again, haha!
