Top explanation, one minor thing: in a 2player game the selection of slot and actual building site is split between players (not done by the same player)

Thank you, no one explain games better. Amazing work!

Once more a very well structured and perfectly paced explanation. I really like the overview/detail level you apply. Thank you!

Requesting this from my Sister when she returns for Christmas this year. Such a beautiful game, and again you've masterfully illustrated this! Brilliant tutorial again Sir! 👍

Brilliant rules explanation as always. Consistently clear, concise and a digestible pace. Keep up the good work.

Perfect timing ! Gonna play tomorrow thanks to you !

The one and only and the very best gamesplainer - I am only sorry that I had to withdraw my Patreon payment for now ...due to covid-19 financial issues - but hope to resume in near future as you deserve every penny !

Excellent video. The clearest one I have seen for this game.

Hello Branislav. Thank you for this helpful video. We discussed Merv on another one of your videos and it’s high place on your list of top 50 games and your comments about it convinced me to get it. All my friends thoroughly enjoyed the game and one of them so much so that he immediately bought a copy for friends of his who play a lot of board games. I’m puzzled about the marketplace though. It seems to me like it is significantly underpowered relative to the mosque and caravanasary tracks and that there are way too many of the resource pieces associated with the different outposts for a rule that says you can only have one of each. At the end of the game there’s always a large pile of marketplace resources while the other pieces are scarce. With this one resource per outpost rule, a player that focuses on the marketplace can only fulfill two of the higher 3 level contracts and two of the lower level ones that require more scrolls. It seems to me like either the higher level contracts should maintain the scroll requirement (especially since you can get as many of those as you like) or a player should be able to activate any and all outposts he has on the marketplace to gain more of that resource to fulfill contracts as long as he pays the required amount and type of cubes for each resource. This would balance out the relative strength of the marketplace, caravanasary and mosque tracks. As it stands with that one resource per outpost rule, the marketplace is relegated to being a secondary track that you use to top off your points after you’ve exhausted the mosque or caravanasary. I think the game would be a lot more enjoyable with a third viable and largely independent path to victory. I’m very interested in your thoughts on this. Thanks again, Jonathan

Thank you for another excellent video!!!

Excellent explanation as always. Well done! Your videos are dangerous for my walltet. Merv is now on my want to buy list.

Good work

You are a machine!

Everyone recommend Merv in my place. And you also said you choose Merv over latest T games. I definitely should get this asap!

Game in a Nutsac ! I love your channel 😁 are you friend with Tomáš Plekanec ?

a question on the video 6"07, do the blue player receive the orange cube that activated by yellow? from the rule book, it said "The other player receives all resources that the activated building site normally produces." I don't know if the bonus tile counted into the "normally produce" is there any reference or clarification to this point :D ?

which game do you prefer? Merv or Praga?!?

Whew, sounds great, but there are a lot of fiddly rules!
