Barrage: The Nile Affair Expansión. MALDITO GAMES

Cairo, July 8th, 1924

From a distant dune, Joseph Fontaine watches the bright surface of the Nile.

Despite the shade cast by the oasis palms, the heat is unbearable and his fan does nothing. Furthermore, the mosquitoes are eating him alive. His grandfather described Egypt as a magical place and told stories about Napoleon's campaign, but to Joseph, all those tales seem exaggerated. What Mr. Fontaine seeks is neither glory nor adventure, but money. The clinking of ice against his glass takes him back to the past, just when his reckless journey began.

The energy crisis forced companies to dig and drill the mountains, modifying and creating new rivers. They built dams that left less and less space for arable land. People had energy to light a bulb, but lacked food to fill their stomachs. That was when the race to acquire land near lakes and rivers began. And what better place to buy land than along the Nile, where humans have been cultivating for thousands of years?

Suddenly, Joseph slams his hand on the table, then lifts it and reveals a dead mosquito. Mr. Fontaine smiles as he thinks of his competitors.

This expansion can only be played in games of 2 to 4 players and can be combined with the «The Leeghwater Project» expansion.
