Please, note that we play with the "advanced rules":
- No engineers (purple workers) as a direct benefit on the starting cards.
- Trading earns more (two) gold for red and purple buildings.
- When opening up the Old World or exploring the New World, we pick two tiles and choose to keep one.
- When expanding (building an industry), we have the choice to make the newly built industry unavailable for one round (until our next turn).
For known issues/mistakes and overlooked rules in our playthroughs, please turn on the Klingon subtitles.

About Anno 1800: The Board Game, from BoardGameGeek:
In Anno 1800, a board game based on the popular PC game from Ubisoft, you continuously build up your own industry to develop your home island.
Ship fleets allow for lively trade and the development of new islands in the Old and New World. You have to fulfill the wishes of your own population. While the inhabitants are initially satisfied with bread and clothing, they soon demand valuable luxury goods. You must plan production chains sensibly and keep an eye on the specialization of your population. The goal: A wise distribution of farmers, workers, craftsmen, engineers, and investors - but the competition never sleeps and can snatch the new achievements from under your nose at any time! Who can create the most prosperous island?
