Re: [Rails-devel] 1835 Schlesien

[Erik V. <eri...@xs...>]

I have the original version from Rail Gamer, which does not add any new
trains and tiles (except the extension and the Berlin and minor 4
replacements). Harry Wu already mentioned in that Rail Gamer issue that
tiles would be a bit more constrained with his variant.

Apparently you refer to the second version, in which those constraints seem
to be relieved. BGG says two 2-trains were added, but I have no clue what
extra tiles were added.

Anyway, if these are the only differences, we can start now with the
original version, and fix the remaining details later. I understand that
there are no new rules with version 2, so no programming is needed. It can
all be done in XML.

Erik.
