Focusing on textile production in Lancashire, Brass: Lancashire, first published as Brass. It is an economic strategy game that tells the story of competing cotton entrepreneurs in Lancashire during the industrial revolution. You must develop, build, and establish your industry. Also, you need a network so that you can capitalise on demand for iron, coal and cotton.
Brass: Lancashire board game is played in two halves. Although it may seem like you don’t score many points in the first half, getting a foothold in key cities gives you a massive advantage in the second era. Brass is exciting right to the end partly. You don’t figure out the majority of the scoring until after the last turn, and partly because players will often play their highest scoring moves right at the end.
Players manage factories, canals, and coal mines to maximise profits. This game, the 2018 edition from Roxley Games, reboots the original Warfrog Games edition of Brass with new artwork and components. As well as a few rules changes.
