1837 Adam's Variant Regel
1837 was developed by Leonhard Lonny Orgler. It is a 18xx-game, which is influenced by 1835.Why this variant
- In the 1837-games, which I played, you count the sum of the shares of the three government-railroads of the players and you know already who will win, namely those, who own most of the government-shares.
- The three government-railroads (kuk, Süd and Ungarn) are very mighty in comparison to all other railroads. Seldom or never one of the other railroads reaches the course of one of the government- railroads.
- The player, who gets several Südbahnen during the auction at the beginning, has a huge advantage against those players, who only get coal-railroads. But a players has no influence on getting a Südbahn-hare, if these shares are bought at full price.
- Therefore the coal-railroads will be upgrades relativly to the government-railroads.
Changes of Rules
- A player does not have to change his coal-railroad, after the matching corporation has no more share in its initial offering.
- The Startcourse of the Südbahn is 120, the Startcourse of the Ungarn is 142.
- If there is no share of a corporation into the Bankpool or into the Initial offering after a share round, the course increases to upper right in every case. The course never increases to upper left.
- The price of the KuK2 is 120 Kronen, The price for builing of hex G15, in the west of Vienna is 30 Kronen.
