Prussian Rails

By John Bohrer · Art by Harald Lieske, Todd Sanders

Prussian Rails debuted in 2008 as Preußische Ostbahn, the second game in Winsome's Historic Railroads System, then was reprinted as German Railways. Prussian Rails builds upon the system established in Wabash Cannonball and takes the gameplay to Germany, 1840-1870, introducing an innovative player order mechanism to the system. In addition, each railroad has a special characteristic, based upon its history: Preußische Ostbahn - May build up to 4 track; 20 black track; Königsberg start. Niederschlesische - No City Penalty; 17 brown track; Breslau start. Sächsische - May build up to 2 track; 11 orange track; Leipzig start.
