... That doesn't help. The problem isn't that I take an eternity dithering over my next move, it's that other players do so. (OK, at this point I should ...

Meanwhile, Björn Rabenstein has inserted a very detailed description of 1873 (Harzbahn) on BoardGameGeek, and moreover posted a number of pictures of the...
If anyone happens to be in the Tampa area on 4/14, there will be a group of us playing 18xx on that day from 10am to around 6pm at the Hobbytown USA in...
Yes, Craig, there are plenty of 18xx players in attendance at Origins. The Puffing Billy organization runs a tournament over the four days of the convention,...
... I was (like David) being somewhat tongue in cheek. Even when you are fairly sure that the margins of victory are substantial, it's awfully hard not to ...
Excellent answer Mike. I would like to add two points that are new or that you may not be aware of: 1. This year I will be hosting several "learn to play"...

I just got 18TN and 1841 and have a few questions: 1) Does anyone have a component list for these games? The first thing I do when I get a new game is...
... One reason a component list isn't included is we offer many different options for games and such a list would be difficult to write that covered all the...
... Thanks for letting me know -- it actually expired Wednesday 4/11, and register.com shows it in the "locked" state -- I guess they loan out locked domains...
Thanks John, I am truly impressed at the quality of your work! 1841 is especially eye-watering in the sheer quantity of components. I urge you to reconsider...
One of the guys in our group likes to buy trains, and when the game is ending always has the best runs, the problem is he has taken too many credits and is to...
... 1826 and 18GL are games which particularly reward getting the right trains on the right company, and frequently it is worth arranging for a second ...
... Glad you like it. ... I will consider it for future rules sets. ... I assume this predated your other message where you placed an order -- if you are still...
The three 1825 game units are an outstanding choice for players who like to buy lots of trains. The market losses one takes to raise the cash to buy trains...
I would second Lou on 1825 and 1826; but I haven't tried GL yet so I can't comment. If your friend is heavily into having nice trains at the end, 1860 is...
1825 would be a good choice for running trains and is one of the attractions, for me at least, for playing it. I remember Francis had set up 1829 so a...
I will be over in the US on holiday for a couple of weeks. Is there any chance of a game with a group in the Orlando area during the above dates. I will have a...
... Your friend is not alone--Francis Tresham's playing style is more of a builder than a financier (hence the comment on the 1853 box art) and it means that ...
