5) Save your workers; 4) You will never fill your board (is matematical impossible) 3) Prioritize flexibility 2) don't waste your silver - 1) Don't clog your building queue "With Castles of Burgundy for every one of this tips it could go the other way, depending with specific instances.." Angela (winner 2023 CoB: 1) Study your map 2) Fight for boats 3) Early yellow tiles (look for tile 12, then 2,3,4,8) 4) Pay attention to your oponnents 5) Be ready to pivot strategies
Great tips! How generous that we get 5 from the ultimate winner 🏆 My tip is that while it cant be called a "dominant" strategy, the math of how the mines work out is clearly favorable- they can provide 2-5 extra actions over the course of the game, and are by nature the smallest areas, which are good to finish early anyway, and the least investment for a type's 7 point flag. The point being, take the darn mines! Theyre pretty good anyway, but if no one stops you theyre busted!
@@lawofgravity1979 lol, when ppl like to talk about math, it is usually someone who does not really know math, and maybe not the game either. If you can get yellow tiles earlier which give you 4 workers and can use workers to buy tiles, no one can stop you winning the game and filling the board. Advice: play more with competitive players to see if you can get high ELO on BGA, instead of doing theoretical elementary math on board games
You're probably thinking of yellow tile #6, which has been balanced to not be as game breaking. But that's quite a great score! Guess there's nothing stopping you from coming to Vegas, wiping the floor with the competition and winning $25,000 ;)

Why 2-5? Not 2-4? In last turn you dont get Silver or im wrong?
Can someone please advise me on yellow tiles? Should I go for special abilities or bonus tiles, for example?
Yay, Angela!
Tip4 is nonsense, I played on BGA with 3p and filled the board, the final score is 324
The math has already shown the proof. Post yours and prove it
