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.

Euro con interacción durante y después de tu turno. Tensión y rejugabilidad asegurada. Los mapas dan variedad y con 3 jugadores también funciona de lujo.

2022-09-17: Explaining the game was tricky as the theme does nothing to tie in the rules. However, my first play left me fascinated to come back and keep digging at these interconnected systems. My score might grow if I can get it to the table more. 2023-06-17: Managed to play it again and the game went much faster. One of my opponents was being quite the annoying blocker, and I was able to play around that. I'm quite proud of that. The same person went really hard on upgrades, whereas I ended the game early by hitting 20 points. Hopefully my next play isn't 9 months later so we can continue poking at the strategy here.
