Comments on: Settlers Book: The Colonists http://cheyne.net/blog/2004/08/settlers-book-the-colonists/ A minimalist blog, with a pretentious title, about strategy games.

However, 3.5 hours for ANY variation on Settlers is way, way over my tolerance for this game these days. Michael I haven’t tried this scenario yet but it sounds interesting.

You should try the Great Race as well from the Book. I’ll have to try this one – thanks for the writeup. You should try the Great Race as well from the Book.

Just warn players that ore is very tight, to the extent that they will run out of settlements. Chris: My pleasure. I was very impressed by it, although that might be just because I have not played any of the other types of Settlers, e.g. C&K, Starfarers, Stone Age. I'm sure we'll get through all the other variations at some point. Sturmflut is next. It's definitely my group's most popular game. Micheal: 3.5 hours is probably way more than it needed to take.
