Then, ideally, you have a couple of more expensive properties, and at least one of the other available monopolies on the same side of the board as baltic/mediterranean (as those can also build houses for $50 a pop). Basically, you can buy both of these properties very cheaply, and then build 4 houses on them very cheaply. ![]() It turns out that these two are some of the most valuable properties in the game, if you know about an obscure rule of monopoly (often only followed in official tournaments, or when playing with rules lawyers such as myself). Ok, this comment is more monopoly related than perl related, but you brought up the power of Baltic/Mediterranean Ave. ![]() Really, these two things deserve to make it onto the board somehow, and this is as good a place as any. Those slots cry out for modules that are seemingly mundane and uninteresting (despite fairly large man pages), but when studied and wielded with full force can provide a rewarding sense of power: Many a time I've seen (enjoyed or hated, depending on the situation) cases where a hotel on those two lowly properties has played a decisive role in a game. I think you're being a bit too flippant with the dark purple set.
