Iron Dividend

A luckless game of railway finance east of the Mississippi, 1849 to 1855. You are a capitalist, not an engineer: you never own a railway, only paper. Call shares to auction, spend a line’s treasury on track across a board built from real coastlines and the real Appalachian grain, and draw the dividend. Every city is worth less to everyone the moment a second line reaches it, so the sharpest move on the board is often the one that costs a rival more than it earns you. Two to six players, no dice, no cards.
