Yeah, I got it for Christmas and we played a quick game last night. We won comfortably (bit of an anticlimax), but it was obviously a lot easier when you start with no diseases on the board
I can imagine it will be much more tense when you can get outbreaks right from the start
when did you play Pandemic? was it a Christmas present? any good?
Ha, thought we'd waltzed through it a bit easy! Also that gives purpose to the first few turns! Interestingly, that was one of the ways we'd suggested to make it more challenging. Neat.

Also didn't realise that once a cure is found a medic instantly clears a city they are in without using an action (though we didn't play as medic).
hehe.
@Spud re: pandemic is easy.
Apparently we are meant to start with diseases on the board from the start... "Setup
- There should be 18 cubes on the board: 3 from 3 infection cards each, 2 from 3 infection cards each, 1 from 3 infection cards each."
er, can anyone explain this?!
Big congrats to England btw, very happy about them trouncing the Aussies
