Brass: Birmingham / Age of Industry
Details
Brass: Birmingham is an economic strategy game about early industrialization in the English midlands. Build canals and railways; create and sell manufactured goods, cotton, and pottery; work iron and mine for coal; and brew beer to slake workers' thirst! Brass is ranked #1 on BoardGameGeek.
Age of Industry USSR is a streamlined variation of Brass and one of our favorite AoI scenarios.
Brass plays up to 4 and Age of Industry to 5. Both are medium-heavy strategy games. What we play will depend partly on the number of participants.
