... My opinion is that v1 as we play it (i.e. with something close to v2's opening auction) is better than is v2. There is no question that the v2 components...

Robert, what were the 18XX games in which your the three instances cited below occur? Please identify each one; our group in particular would be interested in...
... I don't recall if it was Inflation or S&D, maybe both. I think though that such also sometimes occurs in 1841/v1. In games like 1830, it is not so...
... Highly recommended. The copy of 18AL I made about a 18 months ago has been played 6 times in the last 3 months. -Chris (who is also somewhat reluctant to...
... So your examples of 18xx games with a faster train rush than 18Mex are all games that haven't been published, we can't play, and they aren't really 18xx...
I just found that even though the 1870 tile manifest shows 22 - #8 tiles, my game box has only 21 #8 tiles. Is there an updated file I can download? If not...

... You have not really gotten that correctly. 1841/v1 has been in print since the mid-90ies and is available for purchase now (in a v2 edition). Inflation in...
For 1841, it's a bit of a stretch, since you said "I think though that such also sometimes occurs in 1841/v1." The requester asked for specific examples, not...

... Mr Holzmans gamebox has very nice graphics. But it has flaws. Some of the curves doesn't match to 18xx standards. For examlpe his #8 has legs to SW & E...
... The game or games of 1841 in that I saw such are long ago; I cannot recall the details. It is straightforward though to construct conditions: A long phase...
Hmm...never realized the tile rotations mentioned in my GBX. Using Cyberboard's ability to rotate the pieces should help alleviate the issue, though. As long...
