to this FAQ, as well as other snippets from usenet posters, it was much
appreciated. I did not always quote the contributors. Many times I grabbed
the essence or combined with other input.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

1) Introduction
This section introduces 1830, and provides basic information, such as where to
get the latest patch.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------

1.1) What is 1830 Robbers and Rail Barons?
In 1830 you play the role of a rail baron that will buy, sell and operate
railroad corporations. The emphasis is more on creating a huge fiscal empire
more than creating train routes and running trains.
The game is a straight conversion of the boardgame designed by Francis
Tresham that Avalon Hill released in 1982. Bruce Shelly was one of the
principal designers of the board game and later (amongst other things)
designed Railroad Tycoon with Sid Meier (Microprose 1990).
It was written by SIMTEX (Master of Magic, Master of Orion, and the upcoming
Metal Lords) and published by Avalon Hill.
