Here he returns to the theme with a land-based trading game. The board shows a network of cities across Germany, connected by roads. Players get victory points for building a network of offices, for controlling cities and for other traders using the cities they control.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstead of scoring points, players can choose to improve their traders' ‘skills’.
