Product Details

Efficiently maneuver stock and influence rail corporations to maximize profits in this skill-based economic game! 

1830 is a renowned 18xx game that appeals to many gamers for its lack of "chance" factors. This means that the game's result would remain consistent, even if the same moves were played multiple times. Based on Tresham's 1829, 1830 introduces new features while retaining the basic mechanics. Players aim to profit by investing in various share companies on the Eastern United States map. The game's stock manipulation aspect is highly praised. The board is a complex hexagonal structure where track tiles are placed on the hexes. Additionally, each 18xx edition brings unique elements to the game. 

This game features private rail companies and a vicious "robber baron" oriented stock market. A game is finished when the bank runs out of money or one player is forced to declare bankruptcy, and the player with the greatest personal holdings wins. The new edition features a lot of details, which help players during the game, e.g., cards now have a consistent front and reverse, no longer depicting different types of locomotives. Other minor changes grant an excellent gaming experience. 

Contents: 1 game board, 8 company owner sheets (on thick paper), 120 cards, 85 hex tiles, 34 round markers, 8 square markers, approx. 160 notes of playing money & 1 rule book
