Have only played this once, 4 player, just with the starting set. We all kept getting confused as to who was what. Yes, we have nice pieces in front of us showing what we are, and a card telling us what it does and who we support and who we oppose. But we still kept forgetting!
I had an idea to have the board in the middle of the table, and as well as taking the piece from it, you also put a token on it (which I will make) - the token is your house. This way, hopefully people can look at the board in the middle and see on it who is supporting and opposing who.
Has anyone else had similar problems and thought of better ways to help people?
