	Description Edit \| History

1851 is an 18xx game set in Kentucky and Tennessee. Designed for smaller groups and shorter playing time, it features only six corporations on a map with 84 spaces (about the size of 1830: Railways & Robber Barons). The stock market is also streamlined -- all shares are always sold at market price, as there is no "par price".
