Hansa

Players are merchants of the Hanseatic League. Players take control of the ship and buy and sell goods, establish trading posts, and sail to find new markets. The board is a very simple map of Scandinavia, with arrows from point to point restricting where the boat is able to move. The active player takes control of the boat and must pay to move to each new city where he may either buy, sell, or expand. Players want sets of goods that they can trade for victory points, but also need to expand their market presence to generate revenue.

A very clever game. Very nice pieces and board. Always too little money to do what you want to do. I really like this one.

Adquirido a Gixmo en Dic 09, entregado en Ene 10. Es un juego en el que hay que asentar puestos comerciales, para vender mercancías y acumular puntos. Está muy entretenido. Admite hasta cuatro jugadores.. aunque, imagino que para cuatro jugadores puede resultar algo caótico y dificil de planificar. La estrategia es "al momento".. escoger qué es lo mejor que puedes hacer a continuación.., porque a medio/largo plazo es muy dificil. Vendido a LaGacetadelosTableros en la bsk, junto a un collosseum y un kreta, por 60 € gastos de envio incluidos, en diciembre 2014. Que penita me dio.

Cumple las espectativas como eurogame; duración corta (unos 45 minutos), algo de azar, pero con bastante táctica; pero no tiene nada destacable especialmente.

Es un eurogame al uso, de corta duración y con poca interacción entre jugadores. Está equilibrado, la diferencia de puntos entre jugadores del mismo nivel suelen ser ajustadas. El tratamiento de las mercancías es interesante, la escasez de recursos para llevar a cabo acciones le da un
