A country where you can always get richer.
Sicily's rail network didn't start in 1849, but what if it did. For those who don't know it, '49 is an 1830-style 18xx where the mountainous terrain is so difficult, you might start laying narrow-guage rail that costs a quarter as much, but trains can only go half as far. I'm looking for 3 other players for a board18 game with stock rules. Give me a Board18 username and we're off.

Just to say that I'm reserving a spot for taser because he expressed interest in a '49 game like, months ago.

Great. I've randomized the player order (the result was exactly as I typed them in, which I suppose is bound to happen) and company order. The game begins w/ a chain auction, and I've hopefully bodged together a sheet that will serve for that. I'll type up the companies and make a bid in a little bit, when I know what wouldn't be a terrible mistake.
To state definitively, we're playing Scenario 6, base rules, non-Electric Dreams. Not to discourage table talk but promises are not binding. Um, I think that's everything.

e: oh and Sicily looks like this.


Hilly!
e2: added Company Order tags to the map.

Is the order of companies on the spreadsheet the order they get IPO'd in?

e: oh just saw it in the OP, thanks

No, that's how it came. This is the most automated a sheet I've yet encountered and I'm scared to change anything.

Just some small rules things:

I missed this the first time I played, but you're not allowed to buy a 20% from the open market if 10%s of the same company are also in the open market. It's entirely consistent with the IPO rules, but I overlooked it even though they point it out specifically.

You can't run a route consisting solely of a port and a non-port, routes have to have at least two non-port stops.

Companies cannot issue shares until they've completed one full OR, meaning the earliest possible time they can issue shares is their second OR. Furthermore, share issuance doesn't happen until after train purchases.

This is actually not mentioned in the rules, but if a company closes, any trains it had are removed from the game entirely, not put into the open market.

Also not mentioned in the rules but implied by the game being a 1830 derivative, but the RSA private cannot be bought in, much like the B&O private in 1830.
