There's certainly a little more complexity in the rules but there's mostly more strategic depth.<BR/><BR/>Cuba is also a good jumping off point for some deeper games. Both Puerto Rico and Caylus would make great games to take on after Cuba, as it really borrows from both of them. Also, if you like the role selection in Cuba, you could also check out San Juan and Race for the Galaxy; San Juan is the easier of the two to get into, but Race for the Galaxy is much deeper.Dreaded Gazebohttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07997649522489610257noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8335311976705581275.post-89882956856445999792008-08-02T02:01:00.000-05:002008-08-02T02:01:00.000-05:00Hey, great blog and you got great taste in the games you've picked to reviewing, sticking with many key stuff.<BR/><BR/>I'm a new gamer: Ticket to Ride, Settler's of Catan, Nexus Ops, Vegas Showdown, For Sale and that's it. I and the people I play with really like Ticket to Ride, Settler's of Catan and Nexus Ops.<BR/><BR/>Could you comment on whether you see Cuba as either a next step to any of these and if not a next step of those types of games, then if it's a good gateway game to a certain type of game category or mechanic and what the next step up from it would be.<BR/><BR/>Keep blogger.
