Description

Each player tends to operate one or more companies from the start of the game, but it is easier to lose control if someone else gets the right certificates from the draw or discard piles. With no phases as such, tiles may be promoted from yellow to green to russet and grey at any time, as long as the usual sequence is observed.

With less control over the shares you gain, the challenge is more to do with making the best of what you have been dealt rather than trying to follow your grand design.
