1822
====
The rules to 1822 are available on the Web:
https://www.dropbox.com/s/z980fotafawd6z3/1822_rules_web.pdf?dl=1
so this is not a full set of rules, it's just a series of notes, rulings
by the designer, etc.

The map is at:

which may help understanding.

Vexingly the numbering of rules in section 5 has changed between different
printings of the rules... some of which printings have the same revision
date on page 1. So if some of these seem to be off by one, that's why.

1.2.4 Merthyr Tydfil and Pontypool
These sort-of-offmap hexes have given rise to a lot of confusion. Besides
what's written in the rules:
1) There's only one piece of track between them. A company can't run two
trains between these hexes, one in each direction.
2) Routes are constructed outwards from tokens. This means that
Cardiff-Merthyr-Pontypool is a valid route for minors #19 and #21, but not
for minor #20, even though all three of them have tokens somewhere on the
route. If a major were to have a token in Cardiff, it could acquire minor
#20 via Merthyr even though minor #20 can't get to Cardiff.

3.3.4 Minor Companies
Beware. A minor started with too low a bid in Phase 2 will only have
enough initial treasury to buy an L train, as will any minor started in
Phase 1. If Phase 3 comes quickly (and the gap between Phases 1 and 3 can
be very short, if no-one buys 2 trains) these Ls will immediately
evaporate leaving the director paying most or all of the £200 for a 3
train out of their own pocket.

5.2.1 Operating Round Turn Order
Private #9 M&GNR pays its income to its owner now, like other privates,
even though it is described as "revenue".

5.8.3 Lay or Upgrade Track
Unmarked yellow tiles are going to cover up preprinted S and T on the map.
This is a nuisance, but less of a nuisance that one might like think
because the layout of the map in those places means ordinary green
upgrades won't fit at all.

The other gotcha here is 5.8.16 - when playing brown or grey tiles, a
6-exit tile must always be used in preference to one with 5 exits, if
possible.

5.13 Run Trains
A Pullman cannot be attached to an E train. Pullmans can be moved between
trains each OR, they aren't stuck to a particular train.

The mail contract pays out using the base values of the start and end
stations, not values doubled by E trains or destination tokens.

As in most 18xxs the company must run the maximum value routes, but
then there's an addendum allowing the director to omit small stations
from the end of a route run by a Pullman train (and only a Pullman train)
to maximise mail income.
This could theoretically produce a situation where the director drops
several small stations and both the revenue and the additional mail
income are now less than they could be with another route, but as far as I
can make out that's both unlikely and tough luck.

The English Channel / France is a bit of a mess. It costs you one station
from your run to go there, not two, but you only score France if you could
run through the English Channel - if there's a free token space or you
have a token there. An E train scores it if you have a token there.

5.18 Acquisitions
In the unlikely case that a major is buying a minor that belongs to
another player, the director of the minor gives consent without
knowing how many shares in the major the compensation will include.

5.19 Acquisitions
A major can acquire minor #14 The Metropolitan Railway from the bidding
boxes. It would have to be able to trace a route to at least one station
in London. If the major chooses to place the token, it would place it in
such a station in London, and must pay £20 and use its entire track lay
for the OR to do so, just as the Metropolitan would do on its first OR if
it were started normally.

Table 3 Private Companies
A company with a share in Private #16 Offshore Tax Haven can be "sold out"
at the end of an OR. This is a change to the rules as written.
