Medang Review: Quick Take with Tom Vasel

About Medang, from BoardGameGeek:

Have you ever thought of becoming the greatest builder of the 7th century's most important kingdom? Welcome to Medang, a Hindu-Buddhist civilisation from the Java island, where you'll have to lead one of its five major dynasties and build a temple. You'll be part of the Samara, the Dharmasetu, the Dharanindra, the Panangkaran or the Rakai dynasty and battle to take control of the temple. Be smart and develop a good strategy because you'll have to collaborate to build the temple, but only the dynasty that places the most tiles will be declared the winner. In turns, you'll place the tiles to build the temple, activating their special skills if you choose to. All the players will have access to a tile market to replace those that you use to build the temple. -description from the publisher
