Description

In Ways of Steel, players represent owners of railway companies that manage to build stations, railways and of course, profit a lot from it. The game takes place in the United States in the middle of the 19th century, when the American government encourages private companies through tax incentives and letters of credit. The player who has the most victory points at the end of the game wins. Points are awarded for money, stations built, improvements to your railway company (wagons), hiring of specialists, accomplished objectives and government incentives (players who build more railways).

The game works with a different action selection mechanism, the actions are present in different wagons and the players are able to customize and improve this during the game. In addition to the wagons, the game always becomes different with the use of different specialists, objective cards and a customizable board.
