Description
18USA is a thrilling expansion to the 1817 base game, offering a fresh twist on the classic railroad game. With a map of the contiguous United States as its backdrop, this game combines the financial complexity of mergers, loans, and shorting with randomization of the map and private companies during setup. This means that every game is a unique challenge, requiring players to adapt their strategies to the changing landscape. As players navigate the world of 18USA, they'll need to balance their investments, manage their resources, and outmaneuver their opponents to emerge victorious. With city subsidies providing incentives to start companies in unexpected locations, and only a subset of private companies available each game, the possibilities are endless. Whether you're a seasoned board game enthusiast or just looking for a new challenge, 18USA is sure to deliver hours of engaging and unpredictable gameplay for 2 to 7 players.
