Train in Vain PNP

In this new roll and write, players are taking the Revolution to the Rails! Each turn players simultaneously play off of the same dice roll to build up the reach of their freight companies. Evolve trains from the earliest Iron Horse to the most sleek and modern trains around. Cross over difficult terrain from Prairies to Forests to Lakes to Mountains and Deserts. Fulfill contracts to help your company gain wealth and open up new Cities to connect for big points. Players will have help from an Engineer and a Conductor whom will alter the player’s luck with dice.

Goods can be bought and sold, some for contracts, but all for big points. Did you sell more than your opponents? Then there’s likely a bonus for you! Players will need to carefully place their Stations and manage their tracks to maximize their connected Cities. The more you explore by rail, the more your company will be worth!

Benny and I are excited to offer games in a format that is both fulfilling and inexpensive. Print and play allows us to offer a low entry point into fun games with no extra shipping costs or delays. And you don't even need a home printer. Since you'll have the PDFs, you can print at work, at a local print shop, or (like I often do) play straight on your iPad, Surface, e-paper notepad, or other tablet device.

Train in Vain can be played with as many people as you have sheets and pens for. It even comes with 2 different maps for more challenge and replayability!
