We like this game quite a lot and I'm not usually a big fan of abstracts.
We don't need the spinner thing because our board has just a slight amount of warp to it, so that it is slightly rounded, making it quite easy to spin around on a smooth table top.
At first I was a little put off by the warp, but then discovered it was just what was needed. Made me wonder if they planned it that way. Guess not.

That's right, it didn't. It came from IKEA. It even had one of those silly names like SNURRA, but I can't remember what anymore...
But I can't even imagine playing this game without either a spinner thingy, or playing it on a small coffee table so that you could easily walk around it - you really need to be able to see around the Pueblo to spot where to move the Chieftain.
