Great tips... BUT. The income track does not matter (as you said) but actions DO matter. Every loan you take, one less action to score points. I would happily play against opponents who take 4 or 5 loans and hover near 0 income not because I will have more money than them (I won't) but instead, I will have had more actions to place the cheapie buildings.

Loovvvveee this game

Haha, I always say iron age instead of the rail era :)

It’s pounds, not dollars. ;) and its pronounced „Nun-Eaton“. Also I don’t understand your comment about not being able to do 4 actions back to back but only 3? How so? If I’m last player and then first it’s 4 actions, isnt it? I’m curious, how do those strategies you mentioned work, is there a video for it? you mentioned a cotton strategy. What is it?

Perhaps because it's tricky in some player counts to do 2 decent actions and still have spent less than anyone else (in order to go 1st).

There's a competitive scene for boardgames? Not sure if that's silly or sad. It reminds me of the first time I heard the phrase "competitive commander" in Magic the gathering. Board games were designed to played casually amongst friends. I mean, if you enjoy competing have fun with it I wish you my best but it completely misses the point. The first time I saw the "wood into cards" strategy in Stone Age I knew the game had been broken and never played online again. Now I pretend I never saw that strategy and try to play in as much fun a way as I can but it still leaves a bitter taste. I would advise people who enjoy board games with friends to stay away from this sort of mentality.
