(GAME SUMMARY)
|
|
|
| Drake says: "In Batavia, players represent merchants visiting the golden age trading posts of the five East India companies all over Asia. Every companies station offers a different good, which will be made available to the merchant who visits the trading post. To get a passage there, you'll need the ship card of the corresponding company. The one who is able to travel to the trading posts with the most lucrative goods, will be able to procure the best wares for himself and get the most gold for them at games end."

Description:
Magnificent sunsets, exotic flora and fauna, the aroma of finest spices in the air -- the Far East has always had a magical appeal to adventurers, soldiers of fortune, explorers, traders and merchants.
Around 400 years ago, merchants in many different countries organized themselves into companies so that they could send larger fleets of ships to the Far East.
They hoped for huge profits from these voyages, because spices such as pepper and nutmeg were quite literally worth their weight in gold.
