Words are important, here: in fact, the Circus Maximus building gives you the following ability: "Whenever you *lead or follow* a Role, you may gain an additional action from each of your clients of that role"; the point is that Circus Maximus does *not* give you its ability if you thought, even if you have matching clients, who simply perform their action once, as normal.EOL (Eric O LEBIGOT)https://www.blogger.com/profile/08843567382834026704noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6829360209113689355.post-67397554464020540672012-11-13T06:19:18.644-08:002012-11-13T06:19:18.644-08:00Nice review.

True, the "art" on the cards is very simple, but this doesn't mean it was just thrown in. It can be very difficult to come up with design that is a representation of something drilled down to it's basic elements.<br /><br />You may not prefer that style of art, but it is a legitimate style. It's more like icons than art, which is okay. I think the "black box" art and design is significantly nicer looking and generally appealing than the original, which had very low quality art that made it look like a crappy kids game (and a horrendous colors scheme.) Even if you prefer one style over the other, the black box is a professional-looking product.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16943069743769638883noreply@blogger.com
