#62 New game request: 1861
Hello. I greatly appreciate all the work put into the Rails program. It is very well done. I would like to suggest adding 1861 as a new game for the system. It is a very interesting game, but does take a while to play. A Rails version would be most appreciative. Thank you for your consideration.
I would also be very interested in 1861 being included in 18xx rails - as it is my favorite 18xx game.
The effort of including 1861 would be limited since its core elements are equivalent to those of other games already implemented (privates (1830), minors and merging/converting (18EU), State railway (1856)).
The biggest difficulties would be to add additional logic for:
(a) Merging vs. converting minors
(b) Folding minors/majors into RSR (which is different if compared to 1856)
I would volunteer to be a beta tester for a 1861 implementation.
