That sounds very interesting. Thank you for bringing it to our attention.
I've never played the game (or seen it except in web page photos), but I've
heard it spoken of very fondly.

I don't know how big the original board was for CotE, but I hope EG doesn't
do what its been doing; making the new game board waaayy too big for the
average table. When EG first came on the scene several of their games looked
interesting to me, but I noticed every one had a 3' x 4' board. That was the
main reason I've never bought any of their games. I mentioned this fact here
once before, last year I think. And I believe the only comment I received
here was a flippant, "Hey, buy a bigger table!" Uh, no. I have no plans to
change out furniture in my home because one game company makes their boards
too big.
