[PbP] - Brass Lancashire

That doesn’t read like something you can do. You need a Manchester or an ironworks card

GeeBizzle · 6 November 2020 19:15

I’ll hang fire. That sounds a bit off to me too.

Chewy77 · 6 November 2020 19:59

It is within my network, looking at the rules seems legit, but I will hold fire

Chewy77 · 6 November 2020 20:15

Okay, ignore the mine in Manchester, I will use Oldham for the first move, you will all forget that I had Stockport, and I will connect Warrington to Liverpool for a bit less money, (and I believe still my coal in Bury is the closest, so £5 and that coal instead of 7) using a Warrington & Runcorn card.

GeeBizzle · 7 November 2020 07:16

Ok so double rail to Yorkshire using my port card £15 and coal from Burnley
Then play colne and build cotton mill £14 using last coal from Burnley flipping it.

GeeBizzle · 7 November 2020 14:14

Play coal and build coal In Burnley (£7).
Play cotton and build cotton in colne (£16+£3) using coal from Burnley and iron from the market.

Whistle_Pig · 7 November 2020 15:51

You got £1 back for selling coal to the market.

@Chewy77 to play

GeeBizzle · 7 November 2020 16:28

Do I have to sell to the market? I would rather keep my coal for personal use right now like a little coal goblin.

Captbnut · 7 November 2020 16:37

Automatic once it’s linked I’m afraid

Chewy77 · 8 November 2020 00:13

Use a Wigan card to build a coal mine there (£8) and use a Shipyard card to get a £30 loan.

I guess as Wigan is not connected yet to anything, the coal stays there? Oh, wait, the market has been replenished, never mind.

EDIT: it should be 4 coal there, is a level 3 mine.

Captbnut · 8 November 2020 08:46

Edit

Play Port to double rail (Burnley to Blackburn, Blackburn to Bolton). Coal from Burnley (flip tile), coal from market (£16 total)

Play Blackburn to Build Ironworks in Blackburn (£9, plus £1 coal from market! £10 total). 5 iron go on, all sell to market for £9. Flip tile

Benkyo · 8 November 2020 09:31

The obvious best move for me would be to build a cotton mill and sell all three to the distant market, but I can’t do that, which is frustrating.

So: discard Colne, sell to distant market from both mills.

Discard Burnley, build rail from Bolton to Wigan, using coal from Wigan, and from Preston to Blackburn, again using coal from Wigan, for £15.

Chewy77 · 8 November 2020 19:25

Use a Fleetwood card to upgrade two obsolete cotton mills from my display (paying 3 pounds for the iron), and use a Stockport card to build a level 2 Cotton Mill, and use one Wigan coal and 14 quid more to build it.

Benkyo · 8 November 2020 21:19

Discard Lancaster to build rail from Bolton to Bury, flipping Wigan coal, and from Bury to Rochdale, paying £2 for coal, for £17.

Discard Wigan to take a £30 loan.

@GeeBizzle

GeeBizzle · 8 November 2020 22:00

Play Warrington and build a coal there (£8 + £2 iron)

Play Macclesfield and take a £30 loan.

Captbnut · 9 November 2020 07:30

Play Rochdale to take £30 loan
Play Birkenhead to develop 1 port and 1 cotton mill (I believe the iron costs £5, possibly £6)

Captbnut · 9 November 2020 07:38

It’ll be me again, but I’m going to wait for the new board
