Irish Gauge (Capstone Games)A reprint of the 18xx game Irish Gauge is arriving this Fall from Capstone Games. Players will aim to achieve wealth by building rail lines, upgrading towns, and receiving stock dividends in 19th century Ireland. The game is for three to five players, ages 12+, plays in around an hour, and will carry an MSRP of $39.99 when it hits stores this September.

From Capstone:

Irish Gauge, the first title in the Iron Rail series, takes place in mid-1800s Ireland. The Iron Rail series focuses on rail-network developments in various geographic regions around the world at a time when iron and steam-powered locomotives were the best means of transportation. Player interaction, route building, and stock investments are key features of the Iron Rail series.

On your turn, you may either auction a share of one of five companies, build railway track in one of these companies, upgrade a town to a city, or request dividends to be paid. Upgrading towns and requesting dividends affect the length of the game as well as the likelihood of companies paying dividends in the future. At the end of the game, the player with the most money plus stock value wins!
