Steam-belching iron horses roar across the wild
plains! Age of Steam relives
the era when pioneering U.S. railroads built the tracks that transformed
America's economy. Each self-contained phase in the game keeps players
constantly involved in making vital decisions and interacting with other
players. You are challenged to:
Finance both the
most extensive track network and the most powerful locomotives
Determine which
routes will give the best returns on their costs
Beat the
opposition to the most lucrative shipments
Make enough money
to pay your aggressive creditors
Age of Steam has
been the top-rated train game on BGG for most of the years since it first
appeared in 2002. But change is inevitable, and now, nearly 20 years
later….
Eagle-Gryphon Games is proud to present Age of Steam: Deluxe Edition!
Whats New?
Six maps are
included on 3 double-sided game boards
Mini-sized (22mm)

Classic wooden
Track Ownership disks in 6 new player colors replace plastic trains, but cool,
small (18mm) wooden trains are available as an inexpensive upgrade
A PVC insert with
a clear plastic cover has been added for convenient and clear storage of all
