"the problem with caylus is that you have many choices, but some are better then others"
That is called a game, if all choices are always equally good then how will some one win :)
I do understand understand your point about Caylus and about obnoxious zealots.

I couldn't agree with you more, that board is real muddy, it hurts to think how good it could have been, considering all the delicious game boards out there.

Excellent review of a very good game. After several plays at the most recent BGG.CON, I knew I would one day own a copy and sure enough, this week I placed an order for Metropolys. I personally like the board design as it captures the dark, futuristic mood of a highly planned urban development. The rivers and lakes could be bluer in hue, however.

Glad to see I'm not the only one who enjoys ZP. The difference is I've made an entire series of videos ripping him off. :D

Very nice video quality on this one. Better than usual.
What are you using to record?

@Gerstein1 That is Viking Fury, which is the original version of what is now Fire and Ice.

so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so.......
Sooo.... I've watched the video a couple of times and so I decided to buy the game because of the great review.
So thanks for the review... and by the way, I counted the word "so" used a minimum of 54 times during the review.
For all the sensitive folks out there, put away your attack-words, put away your flame throwers... I'm not bashing Scott or his reviews, it's just an observation.
