About the game
Volles Fass voraus ("Full Barrel ahead") is a shipping adventure in which you compete for the best anchorages. Those who procure barrels cheaply and stow them in an easily accessible manner on their deck can later unload them at lucrative moorings for countless doubloons. Each port that players head for has four moorings. Those who stay there a little longer can secure not only barrels, but also treasure maps and sailors at particularly good conditions. More modest short stays, however, offer the invaluable advantage of getting everything in the next port that no one else can get. On the way, clever seafarers should not spurn a treasure map or two — and they might want to be armed with battle-hardened sailors against stormy pirates and even stormier hurricanes. Variably insertable tiles change the game board for each new play. —description from the publisher
