Fantastic fun for all and great for family interaction. As one of the UK's BIGGEST board games the aim of the game is to become the wealthiest player by
collecting as many goods as possible from all of the rival Ports / Bases using vehicles
and exchange the goods when appropriate for payment. The faster you can get
around the board - within the speed limits – the more money you can earn. But
watch out for the level crossings. You can have your vehicle and load wiped-out
by a train here if you are not careful.
To reflect the speeds that different vehicles travel, a player throws two dice
to move a van and one dice to move a lorry - EXCEPT when exiting a Port / Base,
or told otherwise by the rules of the game. If a player has both the van and
lorry on the board at the same time the player will have TWO THROWS every
time it is that players turn.
You should try and avoid penalties and grievances from other players.
‘Bartering’ or ‘haggling’ is encouraged throughout the game to try and receive
the highest price possible for saleable items.
Skill in making the correct decisions at the right time is important. Are you
playing against the clock or do you have command of the game by buying up all
of the valuable items. You’ve just done some work for an unknown rival player.
Whom do you target to receive payment from?
Your decisions will determine the winner.
