The main board, showing a town next to a mooring area. There are boats in the water. In the town part, there are houses with differently coloured meeples, cards, and a round phase track with markers. The art style is colourful and rich.
My personal board, showing a smithy and an ogre (the Smith). There are spaces to place dice, as well as spaces for my character's figurine. The dice come in 5 colours.
My employees, a set of fantasy creatures in a quirky art style. There are symbols on the cards and on the cardboard bar underneath which the cards are tucked. In the background, there are standees in 4 colours of the weapons and armour my shop can produce, showing victory points on price tags.
The boats on which the customers (meeples) arrive.
#MerchantsCove is an interesting concept - everyone plays their own, different games during a phase, then returns to the main game for the rest of the phase. I really enjoyed the dice placement Smith and would definitely like to try other merchants. #boardgames
