#45: 1830

1830 is simply the best known of the myriad 18XX games here in the U.S. (It was published by Avalon Hill.) The combination of track-building & stock investment make for tight games of risk-taking and speculating.

Joe Rushanan: "Great player interaction, multiple strategies, robust and tweakable system, and often very, very close even after 4 plus hours."
