Build America's Great Railways

1830. It is the dawn of the Age of Railroading in America. You're a wealthy investor and speculator betting that the new technology will revolutionize transport. Commerce will no longer depend on rutted roads and slow canals. Instead, it will ride the rails on swift, powerful Iron Horses.

1830 is an acclaimed railroad investment and building game covering the years 1830 to present. You and your fellow players become the stockholders of America's first railroad corporations. Since the largest shareholder becomes president, you compete for control of the strongest firms.

As president, generate revenue by building track and buying and operating trains "regardless of shareholders" needs. Meanwhile, you pay heed to the volatile stock market. You strive to invest in flourishing companies in order to earn healthy dividends. You try to buy stock in corporations that are rising in value, collect strong, and sell before the stock values drop.

1830 contains rules and components for Francis Tresham's original classic design, as well as a host of exciting new variants. The 2-sided map lets you develop the Eastern U.S. using different art. So, get ready to be a railroad baron. Start investing and building.

The forest is ablaze, the smoke is thick, and the flames are spreading! The only inhabitants of this inferno seem to be a few courageous firefighters, their supporting planes, and a horde of fleeing animals.

Ablaze consists of three complete, distinct games. Each game revolves around a forest fire, but each is different and has its own unique favor.

In Wild Fire!, you lead a crew of firefighters who are attempting to contain a rapidly spreading wildfire. To emerge victorious, you and your crew must cover the largest area of forest while always maintaining a link to water.

In Volcano!, you pilot an air tanker struggling to help extinguish a conflagration initiated by an erupting volcano. Extinguish or isolate the most forest fires and you earn honor and victory!

In On the Run!, a lighting strike has started an intense brushfire, forcing fluffy forest fauna to flee the inferno in an effort to escape a fiery demise. You shall decide the fate of some of the frantic forest fauna. Saving the most animals will win you the game.

A modern classic, Barbarossa is a great game for family and friends! Enter the fantastic world of this casual riddle-solving game. Share laughs with your friends or family as you create and master riddles! First, each player forms objects out of clay. Since the item is a riddle, your clay figure will only show rough contours. So there's no need to be an artist when you mold the rough shape of a dinosaur or a bug! "Is it a living thing?" "Is it bigger than me?" ...these questions might bring you closer to solving the other players' riddles. When you solve a riddle, you are rewarded with points. You can also earn points when your riddle gets solved, but only if it's not too easy and not too hard! You earn bonus points if your riddle is solved in the middle of the game, but you lose points if it is answered early (too easy) or late (too hard)! Earning points is the key to victory, so put your thinking cap on and mold your best riddles in the clay of Barbarossa! Designer: Klaus Teuber.

In order to settle Indiana & Ohio region, you need the game pieces and cards from The Settlers of Catan game.

You will also need (separate / different) markers for gold pieces and victory points (VPs): you can use Catan chips from the Seafarers expansion, or alternatively coins. The standard Catan game rules apply to this scenario, with a few exceptions.

In order to settle the New York region, you need the game pieces and cards from The Settlers of Catan game.

You also need additional markers for victory point tokens; you can use Catan chits from the Seafarers expansion, coins, or whatever else is handy. The standard Settlers of Catan rules apply to this scenario, with certain exceptions.

In order to settle the Penn-Jersey region, you need the game pieces and cards from The Settlers of Catan game.

You also need additional markers for iron commodities and victory point tokens; you can use Catan chits from the Seafarers expansion, coins, or whatever else is handy. The standard Settlers of Catan rules apply to this scenario, with certain exceptions.

“Delmarva” stands for “Delaware, Maryland, and Virginia.” It often refers to the peninsula east of the Chesapeake Bay. Greater Delmarva includes these states, Washington DC, and West Virginia. This “mid-Atlantic“ region is marked by 4 distinct geographic zones (East- West): the wetland Tidewater area, including the penisula, the rolling lands of the Piedmont, the Blue Ridge (including the Shenandoah Valley), and the Allegheny Highlands (including the Allegheny Plateau and the parts of Appalachia to the north and west). It is one of earth‘s oldest and most diverse ecosystems.

In order to settle the region of Delmarva, you need the game pieces and cards from The Settlers of Catan Base Game.

This new game combines the two strongest categories of the Mayfair Games product line, train games and Catan games, to create the first ever Catan train gaming experience!

The 19th Century has arrived and Americans are heading west to make their fortune. Wagon trains are forming up and heading out to settle new lands and build new cities. These new cities will need railroad lines to bring in new people and necessary goods.

As the population grows, resources will dwindle and the smart players seek new resources, fresh building sites, and untapped markets. Finance your settlers as they head west to build the cities of tomorrow. Link these cities with rails of steel and operate your railroad to supply the townsfolk with goods. To the west lie lands to settle and fortunes to be made!

Settlers of America: Trails to Rails features a map of the United States built from the familiar Catan hex-tile resource system. Players collect and trade resources in order to settle cities, lay railroads, and acquire locomotives as they settle the western frontier. Trains travel the rails to distribute goods to the interconnected cities. As players move west, eastern areas lose value as those resources get depleted. Along the way, players earn gold, which adds to the depth of play by increasing purchase options for the players.

In Catan Scenario: Crop Trust, players balance their individual need to harvest crops against their collective goal to store and preserve seeds in the Seed Vault. Players who harvest too much endanger the seed diversity, and in doing so, threaten Catan with mass extinctions and a collapse of the food supply.

This scenario was developed in collaboration with the Global Crop Diversity Trust, an independent international organization whose goal is to preserve crop diversity in order to protect global food security.

Hark, friend! Let us help each other. We live in a time of altruism on Catan. We give away resources to help lagging players. We move the robber to isolated locations to ensure the safety of our fellows. We even go out of our way to connect our roads with our neighbors, networks. Has everyone gone nuts?

Ah! Thanks to their beneficence, Catan's guilds reward such noble-minded behavior by handing out "Favor Tokens" (FTs). Each guild helps us in different ways: granting us roads, development cards, random resources, preferential trades, or even Victory Points.

Everyone is just in it for themselves. There is an ulterior motive for everything. In fact, sometimes you can "help a friend" while making things far worse for them.

Sigh! If goodwill really exists it's not part of this scenario.

You will need all the components included in The Settlers of Catan (SOC) game. Catan Frenemies contains the following components:

* 1 Guild Hall Board (with 5 Guild Halls)
* 8 Victory Point (VP) Markers
* 58 Favor Tokens (FTs)(remove the dotted FTs w/ 3 players)
- 8 Trader Guild FTs (Wagons)
- 8 Merchant Guild FTs (Ships)

- 17 Scholar Guild FTs (Books)

Dark clouds are gathering over the peaceful island of Catan. Wild barbarians, attracted by the wealth of Catan, sail to attack the country. Fortunately, warning has given the citizens of Catan time to meet the danger. The size of the barbarian army corresponds to the number of cities in Catan.

Thus, for Catan to fend off the barbarian attack, the players must form a knight force as strong as the barbarian force. In addition to fending off the barbarians, players compete to build the three great metropolises of Catan. Each of these magnificent centers are worth two additional victory points.

Requires ownership of Catan (MFG 3071) to play.

Elasund? The little settlement on the coast? Well, those days are long gone. Elasund is growing rapidly and Catanians are streaming into the city, eager to make a fortune! You are appointed to help the city develop. You heed the call to drive the city's growth and prosperity. Hire workers, acquire building materials. What will your next build be? The competition is eager to excel and claim all of the credit! Limited resources early on will limit players to a few small buildings. Your influential connections will provide you with all the necessary building permits. In Elasund, nothing works without building permits! Once buildings are constructed, they can generate either gold or influence for you. Soon you can start going after bigger projects! Soon enough you may become involved in grander projects, such as building the church or the city walls. But beware of your competitors! They may try to leverage their way into your neighborhood with their own permits! If you don't watch them closely enough, they might attempt a hostile takeover of your buildings! Will you emerge as Elasund's savviest and most influential city developer? Find out in this new Catan adventure!

Contents: Game board, 44 wooden pieces (40 victory point cubes and 4 round disks), 2 dice, 1 trade ship, 9 church tiles, 36 city wall tiles (9 per color), 37 buildings (16 in the player colors and 21 neutral ones), 90 Game cards (51 gold and 39 influence cards), 2 city gates, 4 turn overview cards (in 4 player colors), 20 building permits (in 4 colors), 1 rules booklet, and 1 overview sheet.

Catan: Explorers & Pirates is the fourth major expansion for The Settlers of Catan (following Seafarers, Cities & Knights and Traders & Barbarians) and it includes five scenarios and three missions; some of the scenarios make use of the missions while others do not.

Catan: Explorers & Pirates differs from the Catan base game in three main ways. First, instead of having only a single island in the game on which players build and compete for resources, three islands are present – but the landscape of only one of these islands is known at the start of the game. Players start on this island, then build ships and bring settlers into play so that they can then travel to new lands. When a ship ends its movement on unexplored territory, that hex is revealed and a randomly-drawn number chip placed on it, with the player earning one resource as a reward – assuming the hex produces resources, that is. (The number of unknown tiles varies from 16 to 32, depending on the scenario.) A settler and ship can be transformed into a port settlement, from which roads and new ships can be built to enable further exploration.

Second, instead of using cities, Catan: Explorers & Pirates allows players to build port settlements for two corn and two ore, with a port settlement supplying one resource when the adjacent number is rolled at the start of a turn. Like cities, port settlements are worth two victory points (VPs), and the number of VPs required to win depends on the scenario.

Third, if a player receives no resources during the production roll (other than on a roll of 7), she receives one gold in compensation. Two gold can be traded with the bank for a resource of the player's choice. Gold has other uses as well, such as helping you escape from pirates.
