Supplying New Settlements frustrating
This is a great but not excellent expansion. Some days I spend 5 or more hours playing most at least 2. People that have just brought this should not play the most difficult level the first few times. There should be more hints or tutorial on how to play with settlements and territories. There seems to be a major issue supplying new settlements with the starting resources. When the trains leave the rural stations for the first time they often leave empty. this does not happen when they come back a second time. This a can increase the time to establish settlements by about 50%. This is very frustrating. The map of Australia is very accurate, All towns, rivers, states and mountains, etc are accurate placed. The harbour bridge is cute. IT is misleading to say South Australia and Queensland are included. Only half of South Australia and less than a quarter of Queensland is inluded. Only a quarter of Australia is included on the map. But most of the main cities and many outback towns are included. Some famous and rarely known towns are included. The map covers about 80% of where Australian people live. IT is good that some historical engines are included. The bread should be made in a bakery not a brewery. There are some new goods like seafood Range of factories is good but should be larger there is only 11 a far bit less than america. Again not all resources are included. Oil is missing. It can take a very long time to establish all outback towns and it is difficult to achieve which is what actually happened. Aboriginal towns and conflicts should have been included.
