Description
The Hiawathas is a thrilling expansion for 1830: Railways & Robber Barons that brings a fresh twist to the classic game. Published in 2021, this variant lets you draw track instead of placing tiles, adding a new layer of strategy to the game. With simple rules that can be explained quickly, you'll be able to dive right in and start building your railroad empire. As you compete against 1 to 3 other players, you'll need to navigate the challenges of the historic Milwaukee Road Hiawatha trains, using auction and bidding mechanics to outmaneuver your opponents. With a playtime of 180 to 240 minutes, you'll have plenty of time to develop your economic and transportation strategies, making connections and building routes to come out on top.
