One of the best strategy board games of 2018, faithfully recreated for PC. AFAIK they also have all the expansions digitized. The only downside is it seems to run on Direwolf's servers, so if they go out the game becomes bot-only single player (or even entirely disabled?) I hope a solution can be negotiated, but if not- at least the game will be hosted by a better storefront
Those games also need your vote!
