Verenigde Indische Compagnieen (VIC)

A Dutch family game from the early postwar days (estimated). On a very large and beautifully illustrated game board players round the globe with their ships in order to try to acquire commodities to make the most profit. The commodities come in large amounts (51 sets of 4), such making the numbers up to 204. The more you collect from one set, the larger your profit. There are special rules for handling the hazards, entering a port, encountering an opponents ship, selling your commodities etc. Voyage is done by 6 thick cardboard ships, payment is made with an uncountable amount of thin cardboard gold coins in different values.
