Congratulations are in order

Congrats go out to Dwight Sullivan, as his Nobleman game won top prize at Hippodice this year.

Another link with a little bit more information.

As I may have mentioned earlier, it's a game that I'm not surprised that they liked. It's got a much beloved theme for a German game (medieval-ish European land/castle building), with a lot of well known mechanics meshed together. Plus a LOT of playtesting went into it, so it's pretty polished. Not to mention some hand-crafted pastic molded pieces.
