Game Preview: Canterbury

Game Preview: Canterbury
Board Game: Canterbury
Designer Andrew Parks expects to release Canterbury before the end of 2013 from his Quixotic Games publishing house, and he sent me an advanced prototype of the game in order to preview it on BGG News.

My tech crew (i.e., Aldie) is on the road at the moment, so this video lacks the expected jangly banjo/kazoo introductory music, but it comes chock-full of my 'splainin' hands.
