Age of Steam game

I think 1830 is quite relaxed compared to 1849. We didn't really finish, btw. We started and that one fellow ditched us mid-game without a word.

Crap, I don't remember that.

Binkman!

Crap, I don't remember that.

We still use that thread periodically to setup other games.  :-"

My income is growing at the same rate as my expenses so I'll issue 0 shares and try to get a bit of a gap between in and out. You can also take this as a pass in the turn order bidding.

[Woodall]

I think I'll decline to issue a share. No idea what my plans are, but I have a few options, I imagine.

It must have been because we had already started other games when we called the death sentence on the 1830 game. 

It was not long ago, for crapsakes.  Memory is the 2nd thing to go, I guess.  And don't ask me what is first, because I forgot it.

I am trying to decide what to do with shares as AoS slaps me around like a 2 cent you know what.

If anyone is interested in getting a copy of Rolling Stock, ArtsCow has a deal where you can get 3 custom printed decks of cards for ~$18, which basically what you need for RS. Someone has already uploaded the files to ArtsCow, so it's just a matter of printing them.

It's how I got my physical copy and it works really well. All you need to do is print out the rules and come up with something to mark Synergies (cubes, or whatever)

Is there a link to the cards? I might grab this, imagine it'd play better and faster IRL and I enjoyed our games, even if I failed to pay attention when it mattered in all three games. :)

Alright, I think I will do one share.

FYI, I don't think the coupon works with the full custom card decks.  Seems like it only applies to the deck that has 1 common back image only.

Sorry to get everyone's hopes up.  :(

Cash + $ from Issued Shares = Current $

Rex: $5 + $5 = $10
Mike: $2 + $5 = $7
l'amour: $0 + 0 = $0
Woodall: $2 +  $0 = $2

Bid order is: Rex, l'amour, Woodall, Mike

I'll bid $2. l'amour has to pass (4th in new turn order), as does Woodall (3rd in new turn order)

Mike is up to bid.

[egg_salad]

For $0, I go 2nd?  Sounds good to me.

[Woodall]

That unnecessary share continues to haunt me - $1 changes everything!
