Description Edit | History

Rolling Freight is a dice-rolling rail game that spans the years following the American Civil War through the early twentieth century.

Players are managers in the A, P & E Rail and Shipping Company. As a manager you are competing to establish the best shipping lines over land and sea by laying rail and commissioning ships. You also compete to establish major multi-stage shipping routes to bring A, P & E maximum profit. The company rewards its managers in shares of company stock. Have the most stock at the end of the game and prove that you're the best shipping manager!

My first attempt at a player aid. I tried to get it so two would fit on a page, but that required a very small font. Suggestions encouraged.
