Develop cotton x2, spending £4 for iron, discarding Stockport.
Build coal in Manchester, spending £5, discarding coal.
@Captbnut is up.
Build canal between Oldham and Manchester £3 and a shipyard card
Build ironworks in Manchester £5, Manchester card and a coal from Manchester (not Oldham).
I will build a canal to Birkenhead (£3) and build a seaport at Liverpool?
Play Liverpool and build a canal between manchester and Warrington (£3).
Play manchester and take a £30 loan.
Looking at the map, it’s only a train track between Ellesmere and Birkenhead. The canal is to Liverpool.
I’m happy to pause my turn if chewy wants to take the canal I used up. Otherwise I’m happy to stick with my choice.
Oops, now I made the image bigger I can see the canal does not go to Birkenhead, sorry
So replace the canal to Liverpool instead of Birkenhead (still £3) and build the seaport in Liverpool.
I’ll stay the same please.
