Many thanks to those who contributed to the revised version, and a special thanks to Steve Thomas for his heroic efforts. Sevareid's Law: "The chief cause of...
In our playing today, we were confused as to why the relationship between hexes and their allowed tile placements/upgrades wasn't clearer. The Copenhagen...
... It's basically a spot of confusion about just what the right markings are. Oslo and Helsinki take an unmarked tile in yellow, and Y tiles in green and ...
David, While reading the (new) rules it dawns upon me that we might had misinterpreted the effect of tokens on the 4D train revenue. In 4.5.5, last bullet:...
Good point. Now the Kiruna case is reasonably clear: Kiruna, being a town, is ignored by 5E and 4D trains (Steve rephrased this, but that's what I intended). ...
Monday night was another three-player playtest of 18Scan. Two of the players had played before, and the third had read the rules very thoroughly. I'm pleased...
... In our recent three player game, I found myself in a very deep hole late in the game...somehow, I was always one turn too late when the trains broke, and...
One of my design goals is to assure the possibility of coming from behind. I'm pleased to see that the possibility exists even in such a small game, where it's...

... And 1825 offers 2x, 3x & 4x jumps in revenue. Plus a more generous single-step rise (you only need 50% of the current stock price to raise one step)....
... Personally I like it, for the simple reason that it makes stock prices a bit less predictable. And it's a little bit more realistic; a low value company...

... While it's certainly true that 1870 often sees more than one train per company at the end, I suspect you have the causality backwards. The certificate ...
... You have, perhaps inadvertantly, one of the most important aspects of 1870. Judging when the bank will break is a very important skill. But a lot of it...
(I'm sure this question's been answered before, but I couldn't find it in the group archives) Folks. I'm trying to load the old (as in: from floppy disks)...

... My distaste for 1870 stems, not from stagnation in the green phase, but stagnation in the grey phase. In, say, 1830, once everyone is at or near ...
