i know it was out of necessity but i'm actually happy to see older (and oft overlooked) titles still covered

The Redemptor (discard red cube to get $5 dicount on building) and the Commercial buildings merely require that a player CAN make that color cube. As long as they can currently produce it, they are allowed to cubes purchased from the market. For example, you could: buy Taberna, buy a green cube from market, buy a Hospitium and Caupona (one would have to be via the Consul power of the turn order track, which allows a player to circumvent the 'one building of each color per turn' limit), and toss all three green cubes into the two Commercial buildings for $9 and 1 VP.

I did not expect to ever see a video of this game! I love this one =)

The FAQ at the back of the rulebook clarifies that a player an still buy a color cube if they JUST THIS TURN bought a corresponding production building. So, after Jen buys the red cube production building, she could still buy red cubes from the market for this turn (the last time she would be able to do so without a Taberna).

A newly purchased Trade House immediately draws a contract as well.

Good evening program with rahdo and dice tower afterwards.

Hey Rahdo... firstly, as always this was a quality review of an older game, which I'll admit to not playing. Secondly I have been subbed to you for some time under a different channel name (Flatdude46) but I have now re-subbed with my new youtube channel.

I mention this as I have been a game designer for the mainstream market for about 16 years creating games for other people. But I have finally decided to design and self publish my own card game, and therefore I'm simply reaching out to certain people for their support by simply subscribing to my new channel and following my new series of vids where I'll be presenting a step by step progression of me designing and then publishing this game. So your support would be hugely appreciated. I also intend on sending you a review copy as soon as the game is complete.

Thanks for your time. Joe :-)

Would you rather play this or Istanbul?

Fioretti designed only one game apparently, curious
