To be honest, I only have played it once, which inspired me to make this 1-page summary so it was a little quicker to go over the rules. I do think that all the examples you have in the rules are very helpful for figuring out how things work together. Seemed like an interesting game but would certainly get much more so after several plays. It also seems that there could possibly be room to make this a 3 or 4 player game with an expansion that includes some additional gangs and maybe an additional supplemental board. I would like to assume that the much larger than needed box size was designed to fit all the expansions that will be coming out for it .
I think I got all the rules correct in this, but if you see anything I got wrong, please let me know.
Currently we are finishing first expansions. If nothing wrong happens we will try to publish it in the spring. We are planing also to ask all kingpin players which additional Mafia they would like to see. We have few ideas (ex. Mexicans, east side, cartel) but we want to confront them with the audience.
You are right also that the game is better when you get some experience - so I encourage you to do so :-) If you (some how) will be in Poland at the beginning of march visit "Gralicja". It's Cracow's game festival where will be first in Poland Kingpin Tournament.
