Comments with spoilers must hide the comment using spoiler tags: !Spoiler here! Yes, towns are separate links, just as if they were cities. With the disadvantage of having to pay extra money when you want to add more exit rails to the existing town tile placed.So let's say you build a town tile over a town space (you have to anyway) with only one exit. Assuming you completed that route, you claim it.Then your boyfriend starts building from a city, and then improved that town tile you built earlier with a new one, with an extra exit allowing him to connect to the town, and thus claiming that new completed route (nothing in the base game can ever ever ever allow a completed route to be changed in any way, you have to just improve over it). Here's a few things new players might miss if you try to introduce the game to them:.
There are no Y tracks, tracks can't split. So a city in the middle of the board only has 6 exits. Once all exits are claimed, you are out of luck and have to give someone else points if you want to use a link to that city. Many new players think they can split their route up like regular train tracks. Nope.A strategy is to build one track from one city, then another track from another city, and combine them on your next turn.
This is to make sure someone doesn't block off your destination when building a track.Towns only have 4 exits. The need for speed 1994 download. If you need to get through a town and all 4 exits are claimed, your only choice is to urbanize it and change it into a city giving you those extra openings.For the basic first game, picking the Locomotive action tile requires paying $4 plus the cost of the NEW link you are upgrading to. So if you have 1 link, meaning you will go to 2, you have to pay $4 + $2, $6. New players may think they hear you say its the cost of your current link before upgrading, because they like the sound of that better.When a good arrives to a city of the matching color, it must stop and score.
This can be very annoying when you are about to deliver a 6 link yellow cube, only to discover the first link you pass through is a yellow city.For a 3 player game, only the Ruhr side gets one less cube per city: the US side is the same for cities no matter what. Goods Growth spaces get 2 cubes instead of 3 in a three-player game (no easy reference as its in the middle of a paragraph in the instruction book).In regards to the standard game, you can decide whether your money is public or private before the game starts. Many prefer to keep money hidden during bidding in case you have one of those gamers who sits there for 10 minutes constantly asking who has what and calculating out all the possibilities of bidding in order to perform maximum screwage among everyone (most board games prefer blind bidding to open bidding).
