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.
Connections
Building links between elements on the board rewards you — the more connected things are, the better.
Market
There's a shared marketplace where prices shift based on what players buy and sell — supply and demand in action.
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
Published exclusively in the Autumn 2021 edition of TraXX Mainline magazine, 18 Hiawatha is an 18xx game set along the routes of the historic Milwaukee Road Hiawatha trains. Featuring the proven 1817 game system, this variant encourages active use of the shorting mechanism, includes new private companies, and comes with a few game-specific tiles. You’ll need a copy of 1817 to play this game.
