Expansions Coimbra: Royal Treatment

In the 15th and 16th century, Portugal is thriving under its leading role during the Age of Discovery. Nestled in the heart of Portugal, the city of Coimbra serves as a cultural center of the country. As the head of one of Coimbra's oldest houses, you seek to earn prestige by deepening relationships with nearby monasteries or funding expeditions of the era. To reach this goal, you must vie for the favors of the city's most influential citizens, even if you must offer a bit of coin or some protective detail.

Coimbra introduces an innovative new dice mechanism in which the dice players draft each round are used in multiple different ways and have an impact on many aspects of their decision making. While there are many paths to victory, players should always seek to optimize their opportunities with every roll of the dice. Combined with ever-changing synergies of the citizens, expeditions, and monasteries, no two games of Coimbra will ever be the same!

Good Game but Not for Me

After three plays I can see this is a good game - meaningful choices, fun dice drafting, and tableau building - but having cards snatched out from under you makes it hard to plan long term, and doesn't feel good to me.

Really solid track-centric Euro

Managing randomness of the dice rolls by drafting them is a fun mechanic, and the whole game looks very attractive. A game where you will want to do everything but can only manage to do some. Really solid medium-heavy strategy game.

Interesting Dice Drafting

Coimbra offers some good decisions to players using a dice drafting mechanic where you must balance bidding order, resource management and colour based abilities. The board is beautiful and the components are very good quality. I would recommend playing the game a couple of times with the same group for it to properly shine as there are some symbology hurdles for new players.

One of the top euro games

Great interweaving mechanisms that make this euro simple to learn but complex enough to have a very deep strategy

Very good, streamlined, dice drafting game.

Could use an expansion for improved replayabilty.
