I do remember it well this map. there were even possibilities for storms and no wind during summer/winter periode. but to find out just take an atlas or globus showing the stream lines. Wind is also possible to find out by using todays maps...
The handbook comming with the game in 92 was really nice and offered a lot of help. i still own it somewhere locked up in a cuppord, i just don't own a scanner to help you out...

I could scan and upload the maps, cause I have the original manual.
If there isn't any already on the site...

Admins?

I have been trying to figure out the auction...Whenever you start a game with more than 1 player, we get an auction screen. During this auction there is 1 ship available for purchase by every player(assuming everybody co-operates). The only problem is...during the auction no keys work and there doesn't seem to be anything you can click on. It is entirely possible we are just missing something but I would like some help, if possible.

Furthermore, does anyone know where to get a manual for this game? Online I mean, preferably in .pdf format, although it doesn't matter as long as pertinent information is all there. It wouldn't even matter to me if it was in German or another foreign language.

I'm currently requesting the admins if they want to have parts of my German manual. I'm not quite sure about the auctions, I think you can click somehow for your bidding.

hey i found a 1869 trainer. but i dunno how to use it. anyone can help?

I never found it necessary to cheat this game, so I terribly have no clue... :bleh: :tomato:

You're right. theres no need to cheat in this game. And i only realised there was a trainer after reading up in the forum. I just thought having a trainer around would help try out some crazy ideas i have in mind, which im currently unable to execute due to financial constraints. Trainers can help discover alot of stuff in a game.

Sorry for that... :blink:
There's not too much to discover about that game.
The only thing I could remember to discover with a trainer is the different looks of the branches and the main building when your company increases in value.
Different ships probably.
But isn't that the appeal to play a game to become better?!
Tell me if you've succeeded... :ok:

In regards to the bidding for multiplayer mode, just click on the player names to bid.

when I wrote the review, we decided no to put the maps on the site, as the are part of the german manual. Meanwhile I changed my opinion. The game is much more playable having the maps. So I consider it a good idea to post them here. :ok:
