Age of Steam Expansion: Amazon Rainforest & Sahara Desert

This mounted map expansion adds two full-color scenarios for railway-building games. In the Amazon Rainforest, players connect a small number of cities without towns. Revenue comes from delivering scarce wood, with prices changing as the supply on the board fluctuates. Careful route planning is essential, and the map supports 3–6 players. In the Sahara Desert, players build across a harsh landscape where water is required for deliveries. Water comes from oases that permanently dry up when depleted, although players can also pay for water or use the Water Import action. The map supports 3–5 players and emphasizes location, access, and resource management.
