Age of Steam Expansion: Mississippi Steamboats / Golden Spike

Hey everyone! Ready to expand your Age of Steam universe? This gem brings two awesome maps, each with its own unique flavor. First up, we have "Mississippi Steamboats," where you'll venture along the mighty Mississippi River. Forget just cities for a moment; here, the game is all about building and delivering goods directly to steamboats cruising up and down the river. Delivering to these giants nets you an income bonus, and believe me, they're now a crucial part of your transport network. Each turn, these steamboats move, changing the game and forcing you to adapt. It's pure riverine strategy!

Then, the "Golden Spike" map throws you into the Wild West of the 1860s, in the frantic race between the Union Pacific and Central Pacific to build the first transcontinental railroad. This is a team-based game, and the tension is sky-high: whoever reaches Promontory Point first can eliminate the opposing team! The map features "hidden" tracks that are revealed as you deliver goods, adding an element of discovery and surprise. The game end is thrilling: if one team reaches the destination first, the other team's score can be wiped out! This package is double-sided, featuring the production quality we've come to expect from Age of Steam. If you enjoy the complexity and fierce competition of Age of Steam, these expansions will give you hours of strategic fun.
