Got wrecked at my first board game meetup in Austin and it made me rethink my whole approach
I showed up to a Saturday game night at a bar in Austin with my own copy of Catan thinking I was hot stuff. A guy named Marcus beat me in 25 minutes flat because he traded away all his starting resources on turn one and I just sat there confused. Do you guys think new players should learn the hard way like that or should veterans go easy on them?
Watched a guy at a Tuesday night spot on 6th street win with a wheat strategy before I even built my second settlement. Getting crushed is the fastest way to learn what not to do, so let Marcus cook.
