Since 2005, 1830: The Nickel Plate has captivated fans of tile placement and auction with its design.
How It Plays
Auction / Bidding
Players bid against each other for cards, tiles, or resources — knowing when to go big and when to fold is the key.
Network and Route Building
You connect locations to form networks — the bigger and smarter your network, the more points you earn.
Stock Holding
You invest in companies or assets that change in value — buy low, sell high, and watch your portfolio grow!
Tile Placement
You lay tiles on the table to build a map, landscape, or pattern — every piece you place changes the board.
About This Game
1830: The Nickel Plate by Wolfram Janich adds three new railroads: Norfolk & Western, Canadian National and New York, Chicago & St. Louis (Nickel Plate), a small map extension in the south east, some added tiles, changed train roster and related rules to 1830: Railways & Robber Barons, an 18xx game.
