====================================
有些规则书里写的规则，实际是每个规则书都应该包含的，如果忽略了这些规则，会出悲剧的哦亲~
1、开始玩之前，要把配件都从纸板中抠出来。"Before beginning play, punch the counters out of the cardboard frames."
真希望规则书里有这条规则，哥们看着这些配件都快哭了。就连扔个骰子都很高难度（当然，我指的是把骰子从塑料袋取出来之前）
See, I wish this rule was in the book because we had a hell of a time just seeing the board, for starters. Getting a random roll out of the dice before they were out of the bag proved challenging as well.

2、把版图正面朝上放在桌子上。"Place the board face-up on the table."
放置规则哥看不明白呀。莫非规则里说的河流是用版图上的折线表示？这简直是极简艺术流呀。
Placement rules seemed a bit confusing for this one. Are the rivers they refer to in the rules supposed to be represented by the fold-lines? I felt the minimalist board design chosen by the artist favored art over functionality. If only this game included proper instructions for placement of the board, my first 5 plays wouldn't have been such a slog.

3、把版图摆到桌子中央 "Place the game board in the center of the table."
按理说这个问题应该挺明显，但我们还有尼亚加拉，所以没第一眼看出这个问题。北部的铁路估计很难修成了。
In retrospect, perhaps this should have been more obvious but we also own Niagara, so the mistake wasn't so clear. Northern routes were problematic to complete. In all fairness to us, the board was taking up valuable table real estate required for snacks, drinks, cats, etc.

4、把版图放到桌子上。 "Place the game board on the table."
把版图放到墙上，哥觉得看得更清楚了。原来群众纷纷表示收到个子挫、距离远等影响。丫规则书里根本没提到“桌子”，如果提到的话，就不会这么悲剧了。
Now, look: I had the best of intentions. By putting the board on the wall, I thought it might improve visibility. Some of the people in our game group suffer from shortness of stature and seeing the other side of the board involves standing on chairs, various optical devices and so forth. Nowhere in this frigging manual did it say "table." Maybe if it did, this tragedy could have been averted.

5、玩家不该买TA负担不起的东西 "A player may not purchase more than he can afford."
很多游戏都在规则书里说明了不能买买不起的东西，但这个游戏没写。
Well, this is just needlessly confusing. Lots of games remind me that I can't buy anything I can't afford but not this one! Sure it's really a basic, definitive quality of money but even though it's called money in the game, it's not really legal tender or anything. Besides, we all know: If it doesn't say it in the rules, it's not illegal. Sure, some games have loans but that just increases the amount of your available money. Nowhere does it say that if I'm out of money, I can't keep getting stuff. It's patriotic.
