I think you recommended it in my thread about game recommendations.

But the concept didn't interest me.

For a moment I thought it was a war game on the Albigensian Crusade.

C'est la guerre.

The only time I played was when I was visiting you. I want that game so bad, but we are doing the vacation thing this year so extra $ goes towards that. 

I do have a birthday coming up in a month tho.  Angel

I've mostly played with my kids, so... we don't even use the farmers, for simplicity.
Never tried any expansions, so I don't know of any of their merits

One of the kids' strategies is to start cities near each other in a way that they end up shared between two or more players... and make those cities as large as possible!
Also, convents (or churches or monasteries or whatever those things are) rule!

So I looked it up and it looks great.
Think I'll be getting one for x-mas.
If I was to get an expansion at the same time, what would be the ideal one?

You can start by telling me which platofrm that's played on.

Are you aware of this awesome and unique game, by the way?





Factorio is the second highest rated game on Steam EVER... only surpassed by Portal 2.

@Tiberius

Have you seen this

It comes with the base game plus 11 expansions. All for under $100! 

Is that a good price considering the number of expansions included?

Oh it's a board game.

Problem there is I have no RL friends and I spend 99% of my time alone at home.

I've been too busy mastering The Cones of Dunshire.
"There remain four irreducible objections to religious faith: that it wholly misrepresents the origins of man and the cosmos, that because of this original error it manages to combine the maximum servility with the maximum of solipsism, that it is both the result and the cause of dangerous sexual repression, and that it is ultimately grounded on wish-thinking." ~Christopher Hitchens, god is not Great
