Let's Play Hansa Teutonica! @Phoenix Comics & Games!

About this event

*The German Hanseatic League is the name for a medieval association of merchants in northern Germany. Cities that joined the Hanseatic League of Merchants and Cities were known as Hanseatic cities.* *This association was loosely organized and never depended on any contracts. Therefore, it’s difficult to determine exactly all of the cities that belonged to the Hanseatic League, especially since it’s also important to know when they belonged. Overall, at any one time, there* *were approximately 200 locations that directly or indirectly belonged to the Hanseatic League of Cities.* **Hansa Teutonica** is a game of Network & Route Building, and Player Board Development through the use of Action Points. The players act as traders trying to get victory points for building a network of offices, controlling cities, collecting bonus markers, or when other traders use the cities they control. After controlling a line between two cities with your pawns, you can decide to build an office (and maybe also establish control and/or get a bonus marker) or to get a skill improvement from some of the cities. Players have to improve their traders' "skills" for the following effects: getting more VP from offices in their network, getting more available action points, increasing the number of available pawns, and getting the right to place pawns and get more special pawns. *New players are welcome, and the hosts are happy to teach if you haven't played before.* **3 - 5 players** **60 - 90 minutes** expected play time, depending on turnout and player familiarity. **[BGG Link](https://boardgamegeek.com/boardgame/286749/hansa-teutonica-big-box)** **[3-min How-to (](https://youtu.be/we32a416U6w?si=im82TYHNVdHHAOPX)*[Three Minute Boardgames](https://youtu.be/we32a416U6w?si=im82TYHNVdHHAOPX)*[)](https://youtu.be/we32a416U6w?si=im82TYHNVdHHAOPX)** (Don’t worry, we’ll go over the rules on the day.) **A few important details:** * **This event is scheduled to start at 10:00 AM PLEASE be on…
