One week ago, we held our 2nd 3-day #18xx Franconia convention in a small town south of Würzburg, attended by 15 people (up from 8 last year). It was a splendid time even though I started to feel sick on the second day after a year of no illness at all. All kinds of 18XX were played, including 2 prototypes and I was able to fill a gap in my 18xx history with playing 1880. It didn't wow me, but it was nice to finally get my own impressions on the game.

I liked #18Africa better even though I am still struggling to understand which levers can be pulled but I'd like to explore it more. On Saturday I convinced myself to play #18USA which is always so daunting given it's length but oh boy is it worth it. The best time. We now need to try the shorter #1817 variant #18Hiawatha with our local gaming group to see if it scratches the same itch. I also played #TheOldPrince1871 which is just super good as always. Looking forward to 2027! 2/2
