Game Preview: Saint Malo

Game Preview: Saint Malo
Board Game: Saint Malo
I recall commenting on an earlier preview video that I was probably not going to create rule explanation videos because I wanted to focus on overviews and the general feeling that a game gives – so naturally in this video I went ahead and provided a full rules explanation for Inka and Markus Brand's Saint Malo, which alea/Ravensburger first released in Europe in October 2012 and which hit the North American market in March 2013. Maybe this is a tad long? (And by "a tad", I mean "really, really way too".) Let me know in the comment section one way or another as I want to use my time well – and since my time converts at a 2.5:1 ratio to content produced for BGG News, I don't want to spend my time unproductively.
