MINE A MILLION - VINTAGE BOARDGAME

Product Information

Barges are slightly slower and considerably more expensive than lorries, but have the advantage that they can carry five units (at least two of which must be the player's own).

Lorries can carry two units (unlike barges and ships, lorries do not have to be fully loaded and may travel with a single unit; lorries can also not carry units belonging to other players) and can travel as far as the Newport Warehouse at the centre of the board. They each start with one cool little plastic drilling rig on the map board and they start each turn by rolling a dice: on a one or a six their rig produces some ore and they have to take a random event card.

The game we currently have for sale, pictured on this page, is in very good condition with all of the original components. But because you’re a mining company and not a transport company you have to hire these lorries, and there’s a limited supply.

Etsy’s 100% renewable electricity commitment includes the electricity used by the data centers that host Etsy. Before you can go on the canals you need to set up a canal company, and that takes a sizable investment of capital which no-one will have at the start. I have found Panamax but that may be too heavy and Black Gold looks like it fits the theme but may be far too cutthroat for casual gamers.

This illustrates nicely what this game is good at: forcing the players into intricate and difficult balancing acts between competing goals.This game looks like it was played once, not enjoyed and put in a cupboard/ attic with many other games sitting on top of it . If you have more items you would like to ask me about, just start a new question addressed to "Glenda" it would be my pleasure to help you.

I posted a while ago about a painting by Eduard Von Grützner I picked up, but the photos I took mistakenly mislead it to be ID'd as a print rather than a painting. I'll give the latter a go if nothing comes up in this discussion but I'm interested in what the collective wisdom of this subreddit would suggest! I’ve never tried any house rules though and that’s testament to the fact that even as it stands, and aged as it is, there’s still plenty of fun to be had here. The struggle to expand business, keep adequate sterling balances, achieve maximum dollar exports and keep ahead of rivals, produces one of the most compelling and absorbing games ever invented.Only 2 small issues, the rules are not the original (via internet) and as i said before, this game has sat at the bottom of a pile for a long time resulting in the corners needed repairing . The game is based on the sink the enemy boats,however in this game you must discover your opponents gold,silver and lead. To get either you’ve got to try and monopolise transport for which you’ll need pounds in a dastardly circular requirement. These vehicles cannot be purchased outright and instead are leased, on the condition that the player has enough units to fill them (or can contract them from other players).
