	Description Edit \| History

18EU is an 18xx title which depicts a century of European railroading from the 1830s to the 1930s. It shares much in common with other 18xx titles, but also includes 15 minor companies which merge to form corporations and bonuses for completing long runs between off-map areas. The map stretches from France to Austria and Poland.

Tilted 18EU background pattern

Noticeably tilted "18EU" pattern. Format A4 landscape. Borderless pattern so that it is high enough for the downloadable 18EU material. Serves better as a background for the shares,trains etc, because of more consistent look at the edges of the components.

18EU tile/charter/cert/minor back pattern

Tilted gray 18EU background pattern, A4 landscape. Tilting makes it less important to get the pattern absolutely straight when gluing/printing.
