18NewEngland

Scott designed a new game based in southern New England. The area covered is Massachusetts south to New York City, which is the area where the New York, New Haven, and Hartford and Boston and Maine Railroads ran. It is a partial capitalization game with no auctions in the base game; initial companies are selected by draft and companies are capitalized at par prices. Therefore, unlike some partial capitalization games where the leading companies snowball up, that won’t necessarily work so well here as those now expensive shares only capitalize for the lower par price. —user summmary
