Description

If you're looking for a game that's all about building your railroad empire, 18GA is the way to go. This economic game, designed by Mark Derrick, is set in Georgia and offers a thrilling experience for 3 to 5 players. With a playtime of 240 minutes, you'll have plenty of time to strategize and outmaneuver your opponents as you build your network and routes, manage your stock holdings, and place tiles to create the most efficient transportation system. The game mechanics are a bit complicated, so be prepared to spend some time learning the rules, but trust us, it's worth it. As a classic game from 1998, 18GA has stood the test of time, and its print-and-play format makes it easily accessible to anyone who wants to give it a try. The game's focus on economic strategy and transportation management makes it a great fit for fans of train-themed games, and the fact that it's a base game means you can dive right in without needing to worry about expansions or complicated setups. With its unique blend of network and route building, stock holding, and tile placement, 18GA is a game that will challenge and engage you, and its relatively short playtime compared to other 18xx games makes it a great introduction to the series.
