Description

Get ready to dive into the world of high-voltage power transmission with Power Grid: High-Voltage DC Transmission Passage C, a thrilling expansion for the classic Power Grid game. Designed by Friedemann Friese, this game is perfect for 2 to 6 players who are familiar with board games, and with a playtime of 120 minutes, you'll have plenty of time to strategize and outmaneuver your opponents. The rules are of normal complexity, so you can jump right in and start building your power empire. In this expansion, you and your fellow players are tasked with building a high-voltage transmission line from North Germany to South Germany, connecting the wind power-producing regions to the areas of high demand. As you collectively build this transmission line, you'll gradually eliminate the need for connection costs between Cuxhaven and Stuttgart, making it easier and more profitable to supply power to these cities. However, there's a catch - the construction of this transmission line is funded by tax money, so you'll need to pay taxes to keep the power flowing. This adds a new layer of strategy to the game, as you'll need to balance your own power company's growth with the collective effort to build the transmission line. With its unique blend of auction, network building, and route building mechanics, Power Grid: High-Voltage DC Transmission Passage C offers a fresh and exciting challenge for fans of the Power Grid series. As an expansion, it's designed to be played with the original Power Grid game, specifically with the Germany map. First released in 2015, this expansion has been a favorite among players who enjoy economic and industry-themed games. So gather your friends, get ready to negotiate and strategize, and see who will emerge as the ultimate power broker in Power Grid: High-Voltage DC Transmission Passage C.
