I'd give it a much better review if card capture were enabled. It's soooooo hard to get rid of someone with some 10's on a capital, and you get literally nothing for it.
Makes what should be a decent board very frustrating.

Sweet board, lots of fun. Think I'll start a new one right now.

Solid board with some pretty even action. A bit of a weird choke point in the ocean in the middle where you cant get to nearby continents. Add a port on the left side of the continent on the bottom right.

I want to like this board because its graphically clear and mechanically sound but the games just don't play out enjoyably.
Every game is a total grind, with no ability to every really just take over if you play well. As soon as you get a little ahead its way to easy for everyone else to block you, even without messages/alliances (which everyone resorts to and I hate).
Bonuses need to be bigger to move the game along. Cards go up faster, continents get more. Something, or some transports to be able to get to other parts of the map.

No matter how many people you start with, it ends in a 3 person stalemate every time.
Pipes make it too connected with not enough (any?) choke points. I think cards just have to not reset, continuously increase.
Love the other Mario boards, sorry.

Sneaky great board that plays much better if you turn on some fog.

Straightforward but still really good. Balanced and competitive.

One word, BORING. With such small bonuses and cards, you can go many, many turns without even taking a territory. Game just drags on forever.

Quite simply the worst board I've ever played. Border are insane, I mean literally insane, you have no clue what countries can attack which other ones. Countries share huge borders and they cant attack each other, and even if you might be able to actually attack another country, it might have some stupid modifier.

Sneaky good. Didnt think I would like it at first glance, but it plays really fun. Strategy is different than choke point boards.

Board itself is really good, however the games that play out often are not fun. I've seen more "teaming up" on this board than every other board combined. In fact I cant play this board without running into obvious (and unfair) cooperation.
Maybe its the size or something, I dont know, I like the board but hate how it plays.

It looks like a basic board but it is quite enjoyable. Well balanced for 4 players.

Its a good idea, and cleanly done, it just doesn't play very well. The bonuses aren't quite right and it seems to be over really quickly based on who got the best initial layout.

Meh, small, not interesting, not all that fun. But I'm not a hoarder.

Great board, I prefer the Castles and Towers version but they are all really good. Great choke points, clear and satisfying bonus structure, just well done.

I was thrilled to reach the point where I could surrender. Horrible border modifiers, senseless 5 army limit in all territories, just terribly designed. Stay away.

It could REALLY use a mechanism to get around the board. A path from side to side, maybe a few territories on the path or something. You regularly get stuck in an area and its impossible to even attack someone taking over the board. And if you dare secure a bonus in the middle it will never last.
