This game needs an insert so a bought the first one that became available.
I like the light foam core and don't mind glueing but it seems like the laser was not set square with the table as a lot of the pieces were cut on an angle which made some of the fittings kind of wonky.
All of the changes in LAMA Party Edition increase the number of interesting decisions to make in the game (vs standard LAMA), without significantly increasing the complexity. This is good stuff!
Thoses 3D models are excellent for the dune imperium game. However, they should have been included in the deluxe.
We took Sea Salt & Paper on an international trip (with a few other two-person games), and it quickly became our favorite. The game is compact and can be played on a small surface, and you can play a single short round or multiple rounds (accumulating points). The artwork is beautiful, and the gameplay is dynamic, especially with the "stop" vs "last chance" decision. Highly recommend!
