Watch our three person playthrough of Hansa Teutonica (Big Box) published by @pegasusspiele. Please note that this is not meant to be a full on instructional video, so maximum enjoyment may only be reached if you have a (somewhat) working knowledge of the game. Heck, let's face it, I'll likely never provide "maximum enjoyment."
RULES NOTE: At the 7:50 mark there is a bonus marker that gets placed on the board to replace the one of the originals placed at setup. We did not realize that the replacement can be placed on ANY route that meets the following: 1) has no tradesmen on it; 2) has no bonus marker; AND has an empty trading post space on either of the cities at the ends of the trade route.

About Hansa Teutonica: Big Box, from BoardGameGeek:
The multi-award-winning strategy game Hansa Teutonica is back in a Big Box edition including the base game and all expansions. In the game, players attempt to increase their standing as merchants in the Hanseatic League by gaining prestige points in various ways. For instance, they can try to establish a network of counting offices in new Hansa cities by occupying an entire trade route between two cities - but before that happens, player markers can also be displaced by other players. Players may also aim to develop their trading skills, improving their abilities throughout the course of play. With only two actions per turn and a variety of contested opportunities, every turn is equally quick and strategically demanding.
Hansa Teutonica is a highly interactive strategy game as players block and push each other each turn, but it also gives cunning players the chance to put being blocked into an advantage. The game's many possible strategies can also be tested and perfected on the variant game boards of the beloved Hansa Teutonica: Britannia and Hansa Teutonica: East Expansion.
