Note: The game is in German, there are a few cards with text. English rules can be found here.
Each player represents the leadership of a 17th century Scottish clan looking to expand its territory and its wealth. The success of your clan depends on your ability to make the correct decision at the opportune time, be it by establishing a new pasture for your livestock, growing grain for the production of whisky, selling your goods on the various markets, or investing in the cultivation of special places such as lochs and castles.
Glen More offers a unique turn mechanism. Players take territory tiles from a rondell. Picking a tile has not only influence on the actions you get by the surrounding tiles in your territory, it also determines when you'll have your next turn (and how many turns you will have in the game). But having a lot of turns is not always the best strategy for a successful chieftain.
Glen More is 6 in the Alea medium box series, and is rated a 4 on the alea complexity level.A nice quick euro tile-laying game with a unique mechanic where you can jump ahead to claim the best tile, but then you have to wait while the other players take multiple turns picking their away along the track. I printed out an English rulebook and laminated English versions of the cards required for play, but the game is mostly language-independent tiles so it's no big deal.
I purchased this German version due to the issues getting an English language version at a reasonable (read: not jacked up profiteering price) and love it. The language dependency is minimal and there is a 1 sheet print out of the English bonus cards on BGG and Board Game Bliss has already linked the official English rule book. Great game, great price!
