Big learning curve on this one. I prefer simpler boards, so that's why I don't rate it higher, but I can see this being fun once you've figured out a good strategy
After several dev games and some open games, I've found Miners to be a very fun map to play, with a design that rewards intelligent and bold play. It's encumbant on each player to decide what the best path to the precious minerals is - to switch into opposing player's paths or to secure their own path - and each game plays out differently. Well done Kjeld.
