In 1833NE, 3-5 tycoons compete to earn money and build the best stock portfolio by investing in and operating railroads within New England and Montreal, Canada.
Historically, the Western division of the Boston & Worcester RR was chartered in 1833 to drive west. Boston's leaders recognized that New York City, with its easy access to the rapidly growing American Midwest via the Erie canal, was a threat to their continued prosperity. To the north, Montreal interests sought freight access to a warm weather port, either Portland (Maine) or Boston, to ship their goods when the St. Laurence river froze each winter.
Can you build the most profitable rail network in New England, a small region buffeted by outside forces?
1833NE is an '18XX' game that moves the 1846 rules to New England to portray regional railroading with a vengeance. Players must contend with a rapidly changing landscape as Boston interests first try to link to the Erie canal; then out-flank it entirely via Ogdensburg or Montreal combined with Great Lakes shipping; and finally surrender and deliver New England freight to New York City.
New features include passenger ferries (the "business class" travel of the age), freight interconnections, and "dot" cities that portray both rural New England towns and Boston's subsidies for commuter traffic. For players familiar with 1846, a quick start summary of rules differences will be provided.
But, wait! There's more! 1833NE is two games in one: a Standard game, plus a Takeover game, which adds 5 more railroads and takeover rules.
