Wabash Cannonball - Learn While Playing

[@JonGetsGames]

CORRECTIONS: 57:57 - 21 / 4 rounded up is $6 not $8.

Just got this game for review, and this tutorial was super helpful. What first appeared to me as a dry, boring "train game" actually looks very interesting. Excited to try this now.

[@JonGetsGames]

I hope you enjoy it!

Your previous videos helped get me into cuberails and I just picked this one up on sale a few weeks back. Really looking forward to getting it to yhe table! Thanks for the play-through!

[@JonGetsGames]

I hope you like it!

Interesting game. It struck me as a gateway to 18xx games. Thanks for sharing!

[@windyhillbomber]

Jon your likes per view ratio is very good. Hopefully it helps the ‘algorithm’

[@ddolgov]

At 57:50, you divided 21 by 4 and obtained 8 🙂 It was probably asked before, but what is your top 10 of rail cubes games?

[@JonGetsGames]

Oops! Messed up some quick easy math there. This isn't in order, but some of my favorite Cube Rails games are Dual Gauge, Tran-Siberian Railroad, Minirails, and Spectaculum. Probably many more, but those are off the top of my head :)

[@dslimak]

Thanks for the video Jon. And any chance you will also do a video for Prussian Rails and Dutch Intercity?

[@FishJ]

Here's hoping those boards look better than this mess...

[@JonGetsGames]

I am finishing a Prussian Rails video today :) it’ll go out next week. No word about Dutch Intercity yet.

Is this a reimplementation of Chicago Express (or vice versa)?

[@edwardjamer7143]

Yes - Wabash Cannonball was the original name for that game, and has been restored for this version. There might (?) be a minor rule change for rounding money during payouts or something, but generally the rules and board are the same.

[@JonGetsGames]

Technically this version uses the original Wabash rounding rules (up for general dividends, down for Chicago special dividend) and it was Chicago Express that changed it.

[@cromatoast]

This game in excellent, but that board is an eyesore

[@PhailRaptor]

We keep talking about how these companies have an income, but they never gain any money from it at any point in the game. I feel like the companies should gain income whenever dividends occur.

[@bushibayushi]

As a former owner of Chicago Express i just have to say - this is the worst looking game I've seen in years.
