Imperial

New day new game.  It looks a bit like diplomacy, looks a bit like a game of conquest...

But it is a game of investment banking!

Four players and clockwise from the top left was Simon, the Russell, Richard and myself.  It is the bond holdings that matter, not the countries.  While I had control of Austria and Russia, my German bonds were the best investment, as that country was first to 25 (bottom row) giving a hefty multiplier to their bonds' value.

Final VPs were Simon 136, Russell 87, Richard 145 and 128 for me.

Interesting game as a lot of play is counter intuitive.  And once you have the hang of it, not very complex.
