So replace the canal to Liverpool instead of Birkenhead (still £3) and build the seaport in Liverpool.
I’ll stay the same please.

@GeeBizzle to play
Play barrow and build canal to elesmere.£3.
Play Macclesfield and sell my cotton to elesmere.
Revise my sell to the foreign markets.
Discard my Liverpool card to get a loan of 20 pounds, and that’s all I can do.
You have to discard a card even to pass, so you may as well do something if you can afford it.
I’m not good at Brass Birmingham, but I believe this game is best not played in a vacuum, allowing your opponents to do something when you also benefit can be a good tactic.
Can I use the money I just received from the loan?
