In to spectate, unless you have trouble getting players then I might try to learn the board18/spreadsheet.

I love 1846 but I've never done PBF before so I might watch to see how it works or something.

Feel free to check out https://forums.somethingawful.com/showthread.php?threadid=3854929 for an example of 1817. Basically there's a spreadsheet with all the money and poo poo and a board for laying track- it's not super complicated once you get it down

Fellis posted:I can run the private draft Cool, thanks. I was thinking it would be ideal to do it over discord at a certain time just to get it done, does anyone have time preferences? I'll set up the game tomorrow afternoon- StashAugustine fucked around with this message at 19:40 on Aug 7, 2018 |

I'm keen to play. I've never played before. I am in discord and will register on the board/18 now. Edit: same name as here without the space. Edit: if you want to do the draft live, as of when I posted is by far the best time for.me that will work for Americans. Cthulhu Dreams fucked around with this message at 03:01 on Aug 7, 2018 |

Okay so we're decided on 1030 pm EST for the draft then? Fellis (thanks again) will send us our draws over Discord PMs until the draft is complete, then we'll go ahead with SR1 in the thread. Game's been started on board18. This is the spreadsheet again: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/17HblQUQNssPTNjTiXmcDXnveVRsLJCXwjll4V_8e8H4/edit?usp=sharing . Make sure you request access so you can edit. In terms of game flow, we'll post in the thread any moves we make and then update them on board18 or spreadsheet. Board18 interface is pretty simple- click on what you want to place, click where it goes, right click and open menu to rotate or confirm order. M swaps between map and stock market, H hides tokens and tiles. Make sure you adjust your stock price and flip your token after you operate. The spreadsheet just accepts where you changed money- there's an example below. Be sure not to touch any cells with red numbers, those are calculated. Unless I messed up, things to note: president certs are done by putting an x in the 'p' column and 2 shares in the share column, private companies should be listed in the 'owned' section to show who currently owns them and in the 'income' section in ORs for who they generated income for- be sure to not have them there during stock rounds and don't move them when they're sold until next turn. I did the spreadsheet for the example game in the back of the rulebook: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1Cfb0edlySeQihYV1hqqmZlVnTHuQRvVUbtLJwCtpnRE/edit?usp=sharing If you're new take a look to see what to do, if you're experienced call out anything you see wrong.

Bellmaker's rule was: pick playercard, then cheapest. pretty simple rule, allows for lots of flexibilty in the form of cold hard cash Before the draft is finished, Cthulu Dreams needs to decide on Take Tunnel Blasting for $60 or Pass to CommonShore at -$10 to face value e: passed!

You need to put the tokens on the board, too e. and add 160 to L25 for the shares you issued. CommonShore fucked around with this message at 15:03 on Aug 9, 2018 |
