			* • Impede your opponent !
			Leave him the dominoes he wouldn't want when you can. If he wasted his fields, allowing him to get one more windmill won't harm you too much. If he only has one or two empty spots next to his pastures or swamps and a lot of crowns are still available on it, leaving him with all those tiles will force him to waste some (and maybe this will be double crowns). Be ruthless !

 A big part of the ebb and flow of the game is choosing a tile for next round. If you choose the very top tile, you get to pick first next round. This can be a useful strategy if there are no crowns/no useful tiles on the board. Alternatively, when the last round comes, if you picked last, you may be stuck with a tile that you cannot play (and forfeit points potentially). For these reasons, it's important to  be mindful of the risk/reward ratio when selecting a tile towards the bottom.
