In Vanuatu, you are a Vanuatuan who wants to prosper during the eight turns of the game.In order to prosper, you have to manage with natural resources, rare items, vatus (local currency) and tourists. To earn money or prosperity points, you may also draw on the sand, carry tourists all over Vanuatu islands or trade cargo with foreign countries.
On each turn, the archipelago expands and you have to program your actions with five tokens. You put one or more of them on the chosen action places and, on your turn, you will only be able to play an action if you have the majority on its place.
A good programmation strategy lets you block other players : for example, they won’t be able to sell fishes if they haven’t caught them first … order matters !
There is no such thing as a rich Vanuatuan : when you reach 10 vatus, they automatically transform into 5 prosperity points and again, you are poor.

Don't expect to lie around the sun, lazily sipping cocktails and passively watching hula dancers, because the tactical game Hawaii is not a paradise for idlers, but rather for bold, active strategists. Restlessly, they'll move their pieces on the game board, facing constant challenges in terms of making their beautiful villages on this beautiful island as profitable as possible. Only those who will be able to use their dwindling resources to meet the increasing demands over five rounds will find a spot for themselves on the beach.

At its heart, Airlines Europe is a stock game, with players earning points for the stock they hold in particular airline companies when one of the randomly determined scorings takes place. On a player's turn, that player either expands an airline and claims a stock, plays stock onto the board and receives dividend, invests in a special airline called Air ABACUS or gets a certain amount of money from the bank. A player scores only for stock in play, but the value of an airline is determined by the value of the route licences that airline owns – thus, you're torn in terms of what to play when.

In his Last Will, your rich uncle stated that all of his millions will go to the nephew who can enjoy money the most. How to find out which nephew should be rich? You will each be given a large amount of money and whoever can spend it first will be the rightful heir. Visit the most exclusive theatres or eat in the most expensive restaurants. Buy old properties for the price of new ones and sell them as ruins. Host a huge party in your mansion or on your private boat. Spend like your life would depend on it. Spend to become rich! If you're the first to run through the money on hand, you'll receive the rest of his inheritance – oh, and win the game.

Welcome to the 2012 EuropeMasters edition.
After a software upgrade we have had serious problems with our editor. In result we were nnot able to publish any content. This problem seems to resolved now (finally). And brings me again to the point that we really could use a good webmaster who is not only willing to play with the design but also takes care of content and technical issues. So if you are a Joomla wizard and fond of boardgames let us know!
This year we are going to try something new. There is interest in the EC from outside of Europe, so this year we want to have a limited number of seats available for teams outside Europe, making the tournament an open European Championship.
Nice dice,
Ronald |
