League of Six

League of Six is a quick and engaging game about the cutthroat world of tax collection. Set in 15th century Europe, you take on the role of a young, ambitious aristocrat vying for a coveted position in the court of King Sigismund. The game is all about collecting revenue, gaining influence, and outmaneuvering your opponents.

I found the core gameplay loop to be quite addicting. Each turn, you visit one of the six cities, collecting goods and using them to gain influence in the royal court and with the various estates. The bidding mechanic is where the game really shines. It's a unique system that adds a layer of strategic depth and player interaction. You're constantly weighing your options and trying to anticipate your opponents' moves.

While League of Six is certainly strategic, it's also very approachable. The rules are easy to learn, and the game plays relatively quickly. I've enjoyed teaching it to friends who are new to board games, and they've all had a blast. It's a great game for a casual gaming session or a night of competitive fun.

One thing I particularly appreciate is the way the game encourages player interaction. There's always something going on, and you're constantly trying to outwit and outmaneuver your opponents. It's a game where your decisions have real consequences, and you have to be careful not to overplay your hand.

Overall, I highly recommend League of Six to anyone looking for a fun and engaging board game. It's a great combination of strategy, interaction, and quick play that will keep you coming back for more.
