“A Brief History of the World” - what are the area values over the epochs?











up vote

favorite












I got "A Brief History of the World" second hand, and I'm not entirely sure if the area value tokens are all there. The area values are not listed anywhere else in the rule book or on the internet as far as I could find. And not every area has a token for each epoch by design, absent tokens for that epoch indicate an area value of 0, so there is no way to check if a token is missing or supposed to not exist.



Can someone with a known-good 'A Brief History of the World' post a table with area values for the epochs?



I specifically only have two tokens for the second epoch, only for north and south Europe.

  • @ToonKrijthe There are a number of editions of History of the World, of which "A Brief History of the World" is one. A tag history-of-the-world is probably more useful for the site than brief-history-of-the-world

  • Great! While my box also lists the contents it doesn't specify the number of area values. This means my set is complete, I'll post a table myself.

    But the area values for epoch 3 is wrong. I have 6 of them, which makes the total add to 32 so probably a typo on boardgamegeeks.
