I went bankrupt, and my trains rusted on me before I could even run them. Good shit!!
Hopefully I get to go bankrupt this time. it’s been a while so I’m not using math I’m playing by vibes
just played a paper game of 1889 and counting things by hand is too hard, I 100% went by vibes
I started the game. daphny I know you have a thing all day tomorrow
This is now a mega thread™️
excellent
PRO TIP: operate your trains for maximum profit
you can just click around and ask question/work stuff out in the game. you can also pause the game for 3 days while you read everything and watch videos and roll back moves to account for your new understandings
so: Thursday
I’ve learned as I played.
I don’t anticipate we will finish the current game this week
We have been playing 1889 since it’s a good learning game and doesn’t have as many embellishments as other 1830 derivatives. I’d like to play 1830 once we get up to speed.
If I’d be the one holding you back, feel free to choose the more complex one and I’ll figure it out.
I’d recommend a slow start, 1830 is much harder & unforgiving (and longer) than 1889. if you’re unwise the first tile lay of NYNH can make it unplayable for the rest of the game. most other companies have (or are) delicious boobytraps
plus I want to try floating TR in 1889 and running a wild route
we’re all holding each other back that’s how you play the game
hm ok, i’m gonna watch a rules video on the clock tomorrow
oh my god I can’t believe there might be a contingent of fucking 18xx players at sb now
18C2C AT A MEETUP GOALLSSSS
