Just some thoughts on a 4–player 1830 private auction, using my last playthrough on Board18 as an example. Assumptions: — privates’ powers don’t matter — you’d rather not get P6 (the only unsellable private, so you can’t transfer money from…
It is the first one with our new trays for cards! And this is not the end, because I have 3 other games on the list that will fit our little boxes. This is a set of 3 trays to sort…
