    What is more fun for you: Playing or Collecting?

    My favorite is definitely playing.  However, I have very fond memories of building my collection back in 2011 when I was acquiring a lot of stuff.

    I like both but playing is much more fun.

    I would say playing, too, though I find it much easier to make time to collect than play (I haven’t tried VASSAL yet, so all my games are in person).

    Haven’t posted in a while so it glad to see everything’s still going!

    I’d have to say playing for me. I have a sizeable collection already and I don’t really want any more ships since I’ve gotten most of the ones I consider useful. At this point I’d rather let my friends borrow from my collection so we can all play than get more ships haha.

    I totally understand that.  Online shopping has become an incredibly easy 1-2 click experience, and there are still plenty of reasonably priced packs out there.  (though mostly at HWG at this point)  Setup time can be a killer for this game, and I’m worried that it limits the game’s potential.  I go a little overboard sometimes with the blue ocean fabric and the custom islands/terrain, but getting ready for a game AND the cleanup afterwards can take as long or longer than the game itself, especially with newer players or people who need to build their ships to play.

    Love this answer.  😀
