Hello folks. As this has been done on this list several times in the past seemingly without issue, I hope no one minds me doing the same. I have come to a...
In addition to the below list, I also realized I neglected to include Steam Over Holland in the list, so a perfect mint condition copy of that is also part of...
Also, you could probably just keep it until Portland in June, if you wanted to handle it that way, if you'll be there this year. -Eric ... [Non-text portions...
I will not be going to Portland this year, but that's a good point. If someone in the Portland area bought this load off of me you could probably easily...
My friend and I tried a four hand game of 18NY. We made the following assumptions: a. Less than optimal routes could be deliberately chosen (to enable ...
Merger Corp with a train one shell, empty second shell. Insufficient $ to buy a train so a forced buy ensues with funds from President's hand. President...
See below rules version 1.4 not sure if these are the newest or not. 4.8.3 Train Shuffling When the merger corporation operates, you may rearrange its trains...
David is correct. We had a discussion here earlier if you want to look it up. Any forced purchase must go to an empty shell. If interested the way around it...
John, I've replied to your questions within the body of your post. Thanks for playing it, let me know if you have any (other) suggestions, or if I can answer...
As a followup to this thread, and I promise my last message on the subject, my attempts at negotiating a deal for the full lot have not been successful and so...
Pierre We played a 5 handed 18NY test here in North Tonawanda (we could actually see the rail lines we were building in the distance). Anyway as usual Chris...
I have just run a seven player 'solitaire' to see what it was like. Quick question: based on your session report, you were only running one OR between SRs,...
We were running two ORs between SDRs as normal.We were labelling them OR1A,OR1B etc. Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Danny...
Bill, Earlier versions of the game generally did not have all 8 RRs get into the game (there was a provision for NYC to "kill" unformed share companies), so...
... Maybe you need a rule like 1834 where you put in more trains and remove them as mergers happen. Otherwise, if there are mergers there will be too many...
... No, we were running two - I just summarised. ... We haven't decided whether privates should go for above/below/about par. (Another solution to the WV issue...
... Yes, I had wondered because the cash values looked too low, but I think that is because people paid quite high prices for their initial minors. ... What...
OK I'm intrigued. How did you go about playing 1861 "solitaire"? Â I've often thought about playing 18xx games solitaire , but I can't stop myself from...

Jim, If you play with a regular group and you know them well you could assign them positions in their absence and ask yourself questions such as: -What would...
The privates actually went pretty cheaply.Part of the problem from my end was that I got P2 for face,and then didn't dare bid over 50 for P3,for fear that I'd...
... Yes. In a game where the privates go cheaply but the first wave of minors are too expensive, it is easy to conclude that the privies (sic*) are the...
Richard, You keep saying that 7 minors can pay 70R with a 2T. While true, this misrepresents any likely OR1. 1) RO will only pay 70R in OR1B if SpW decides to...
... Any game designer has to do a lot of this before showing the first draft to friends, so this is not unusual for me. You have to try to imagine a bunch of...
