Brass - the Next Release from Warfrog Games
Martin Wallace has passed along a few details about Brass, which will be the Essen 2007 release by Warfrog Games. The title of the game comes from a Yorkshire saying, “wher thez muk therz brass,” but as Martin says, “Funnily enough, the game is set in Lancashire at the start of the Industrial Revolution.”
Your goal in Brass is to build cotton mills, mines, canals, railways, and other businesses and end up with the most money. Unlike recent Warfrog titles, combat isn’t part of the game. Brass uses no dice, but the game does have a luck factor through the drawing of cards.
Martin says that Brass is still in development, but he plans to present a final version of the game at the UK Games Expo on June 2/3.

Since the game is still in development, I didn’t pester Martin about distribution, price, and so on. Once the Essen Preview goes live on July 1, then I’ll start bugging people for more details. Posted by W. Eric Martin on Mar 16, 2007 at 09:47 AM | #
