Trade, bluff, scheme, negotiate…

As merchants of the Golden Age of Sail, players trade commodities as they try to collect sets and achieve market dominance. But hidden in the pack, disaster cards are waiting to strike: storms and plagues, pirates and untrustworthy captains…Do you pool risk or go it alone?

Will you play the honest broker or will you deceive to get ahead? Emotions run high as deals are struck and alliances made and broken. Historical innovations help you manage risk with new abilities and cards – if and when they are discovered. You’ll need charm, prudence, and cunning to survive in this line of work – and more than a little luck!
