Description (338 chars)
18TN is Mark Derrick's game set in Tennessee and Kentucky, similar to his 18AL and 18GA. This game is what 1851 was based on, but the substantial changes introduced by Chris Lawson make it play quite differently. 18TN is simple enough to use for teaching the 18xx game system to new players, and finishes in a reasonable time as well.
