What is Brass: Birmingham

Brass: Birmingham is an economic strategy game sequel to Martin Wallace's 2007 masterpiece, Brass. Brass: Birmingham tells the story of competing entrepreneurs in Birmingham during the industrial revolution between the years of 1770 and 1870.

It offers a very different story arc and experience from its predecessor. As in its predecessor, you must develop, build and establish your industries and network in an effort to exploit low or high market demands. The game is played over two halves: the canal era (years 1770-1830) and the rail era (years 1830-1870). To win the game, score the most VPs. VPs are counted at the end of each half for the canals, rails and established (flipped) industry tiles.

Each round, players take turns according to the turn order track, receiving two actions to perform any of the following actions (found in the original game):

1) Build - Pay required resources and place an industry tile.

Excelente juego económico. Genial como funciona el mercado en la oferta y demanda de los diferentes recursos. El jugar dos eras implica básicamente jugar dos fases. Es mi juego favorito justamente ahora... Esperando laa versión de Pittsburg...

Es un remake del Brass original. Viene con el tablero en lado luminoso o lado oscuro.. el aspecto estético es una pasada. Tiene un arte muy chulo, nada que ver con el anterior. En cuanto a reglas, han desaparecido los barcos y los astilleros y a cambio han surgido las destilerias, las fábricas de cerámica y las mercancías que se unen al carbon, la fundición, y las algodoneras de siempre. Además, ahora los mercados cambian y son menos azarosos, además de que cambian en cada partida. El juego se ha vuelto un poco más complejo, pero la esencia se mantiene y la experiencia de juego sigue siendo un
