I've posted your files at
http://rails.sourceforge.net/18XX_Engine.Sept_2008.zip for people to
review.

I am very impressed with your implementation.  There's a few usability
quibbles I have, but if we're only talking about your game board code,
I'm happy with how it operates.

If you're interested in bringing your code into our project, I'd be
pleased to have it. It's definitely a step up from what we currently
have.

For first steps, I'd recommend looking at the Options class, and see
what changes will be needed get started.
