Yes, Catan is a good introduction to modern board games but it's really not a great game.

After you've played it a few times you start to see its flaws. (It's way too luck-driven, and you can get stuck in an impossible situation where you can't win even if you play smart and you just have to wait for the game to end).

Yup.

I never knew why I hated Catan, but it's because it's very luck driven (obvious now).

Castles of Burgandy has so many directions you can go, and then including mitigating your rolls with workers, it's just way more fun (albeit more dense and harder to keep score).

Played a game of Castles last night and planning another for tonight.
