Come Play: Age of Steam
About the event
Join us for a session of Age of Steam, Martin Wallace’s classic game of railway construction, economic strategy, and high-stakes planning!
About the Game
In *Age of Steam*, players build track, upgrade locomotives, and deliver goods across an evolving railway network to generate revenue and victory points. Each round brings tight financial management—you'll issue shares to raise capital, bid for turn order, and carefully calculate your route deliveries before your opponents cut off your lines or expenses catch up to you.
Who Will Like It?
• Strategy & Economic Game Fans: If you enjoy tight, interactive games with minimal luck where every decision counts, this is right up your alley. • Rail & Route-Building Enthusiasts: Perfect for players who love spatial puzzles, network building, and engine-building mechanics. • Competitive Thinkers: Excellent for anyone who appreciates deep strategic planning, player interaction, and managing tight budgets under pressure.
Event Details & Logistics
• Scalable Play & Map Selection: We have maps supporting up to 6 players. We will select the specific map on game night to best match our final player count and the group's overall experience level. • Bring Your Copy: If you own a copy of *Age of Steam* (or any expansion maps), please bring it along! • Player Count Flexibility: If more than 6 players turn out and we only have one copy available, don't worry—we’ll split into groups and run suitable alternative games so everyone gets to play.
Come ready to lay track, deliver goods, and out-maneuver the competition. See you at the table!
