The multi-award-winning strategy game Hansa Teutonica is back in a Big Box edition including the base game and all expansions. In the game, players attempt to increase their standing as merchants in the Hanseatic League by gaining prestige points in various ways. For instance, they can try to establish a network of counting offices in new Hansa cities by occupying an entire trade route between two cities — but before that happens, player markers can also be displaced by other players. Players may also aim to develop their trading skills, improving their abilities throughout the course of play. With only two actions per turn and a variety of contested opportunities, every turn is equally quick and strategically demanding.
Hansa Teutonica is a highly interactive strategy game as players block and push each other each turn, but it also gives cunning players the chance to put being blocked into an advantage. The game’s many possible strategies can also be tested and perfected on the variant game boards of the beloved Britannia and East expansions.

I feel like this game should be easier to teach than it is. In many ways the movements are very chess like, with the rules being just as finicky about movement. It provides a lot of freedom but many casual first time players may need quite the introduction to it.

What a lovely shade of beige. One of the best old school euros out there. Hard to find fault with Hansa, it is very much so themeless. Crisp, crisp game though. Should probably be the full 5 stars but want to play it some more before I throw it in the ol favs category.
