Note that this is not the case for the "East Expansion". I really like the way that expansion mixes things up strategy-wise...
Oh sounds interesting. I never gave the expansion much attention.
Can anyone tell me if they have more key upgrades in their games when playing this map?
(sorry for hijacking this thread a little)
I haven't played the expansion map in awhile, but we found keys even less important than the base map, although that's with primarily 3 and 4 players.
In the base game, you can often get a key upgrade for free, since it's the primary displacement area for the 3-player action route and one of the 4-player action routes. in the expansion, there's really no reason to be down there unless you are specifically upgrading for keys. Most the action is on the main city, the bonus routes, getting merchants, and connecting the two Northern cities.
