18OE - Week 4 blog post is up!

Mark Frazier — 2013-05-17T13:48:54

Wherein I discuss the process of iterative design, and how it relates to 18OE!

There's a snippet of artwork from the artist I've hired as well - Gary Simpson is phenomenal!

This appears to be a virus infection.  I've put Ian back on moderated

One thing you have to love about this forum:

On BGG, they talk about "old" games that came out in 2007.

Here, we're talking about 2038, which came out in 1995,
as a newer game (which it is when compared with 1829.)

Re: 1817: query about using a 'blocked' station as terminus of a train route

brosiuse — 2013-05-12T22:37:28

I think this is all being said in fun, but Rule 7.1 for 2038 says
"To earn money, a route's pickups must be delivered by ending that
route at any base or a transshipment point."  Since in 2038 you
don't just add the values of locations, as you do in most 18xx
games, but pickup and deliver the pickups, the fact that you
don't score the base to which you deliver is simply a difference
in 2038.

jc, your incorrect!
terminus  by definition means "end of the road".
therefore, with that definition, tokens don't stop any other company from 
using any city as an "end point" for any of their trains being operated as 
long as that train has a clear route leading to one of that company's token 
elsewhere on the map that's within reach of that trains operating run.
