Before the Wind

Merchant shipping themed card game in which players take it in turn to make available a selection of cards, and then bid for the right to use these cards in a clever way. If someone else wants to use the card you choose then you must either pay them or allow them to pay you to take the card instead of you. Cards can let you obtain goods to put in your hand, place cards from hand into your warehouse, or ship goods from your warehouse for victory points. Players need to take care that the end of the round doesn't creep up unexpectedly as some of their goods will likely rot if unshipped. Very well regarded game.
