Description Edit | History

Game description from the publisher:

Cuba prior to the revolution: Under turbulent circumstances, the villages of the island strive for independent wealth and influence. Who can buy and sell his products and goods on the domestic market profitably or take in the most on the trading ships? Who can send the right delegate to parliament in order to influence the government legislative process, or erect distilleries, hotels and banks at the right moment to the benefit of his village?

Whoever has accumulated the most victory points in Cuba by the end of the game wins. Players earn victory points by shipping merchandise from the harbor, but also by erecting and using buildings, and by abiding by the law.

4 Portuguese cards paste-ups
Contained in the zip file are two pdf files containing the Portuguese translation of the cards. If printed to an A4 sheet they should fit perfectly with the original cards in appropriate sleeves. The cards were produced using open source software, namely Inkscape and GIMP. Quality is good enough for gaming purposes (144 dpi).
