Hansa Teutonica - A Deep Review

GeekNights reviewed the fantastic 2009 board game Hansa Teutonica, designed by Andreas Steding. It's stood up to repeated play among skilled gamers, and provides a deeply interactive experience while minimizing the effect of politics. Ignore the awfully written rules (get someone to teach it to you) and their awful terminology ("merchants" vs "traders" and "supply" vs "stockpile").

Filling a niche between highly interactive/political games like El Grande and primarily solitaire games like Agricola, it is a must-own for any tabletop gamer. It also hearkens back to an earlier era of wooden cubes. There are wooden cubes everywhere.
