Medici

"Medici" is a classic auction-style board game by the renowned Reiner Knizia, where players dive into the competitive world of 16th-century Florentine merchants. The game pits 2-6 players against each other in a strategic battle of wits and resource management, set over three rounds that represent three days of intense trading and bidding at the wholesale market.

In "Medici", players assume the roles of seafaring traders vying to acquire the most valuable commodities like the finest cloth, exotic spices, grain, colorful dyes, lush furs, and occasionally, rare gold. The game's core mechanics revolve around presenting goods for auction and strategically bidding to fill your ships with the most lucrative cargo. As the day ends, players earn coins for the wares they've managed to secure, but there's a catch - the funds you use to bid not only allow you to purchase goods but also double as your points at the game's conclusion, adding a layer of depth to the bidding strategy.

This new edition of "Medici" breathes fresh life into the classic game with stunning new artwork and visuals that transport players to the heart of Renaissance Florence, enhancing the immersive experience of trading and negotiation. The game components include 1 beautifully designed game board, 6 Large Ship Mats and 2 Small Ship Mats for tracking your cargo, 6 Ship tokens, 36 Commodity cards representing the various goods, 36 player counters, 3 player aids for quick reference, 1 First Player card to indicate turn order, 5 Commodity counters, 2 Day counters to keep track of the rounds, and a comprehensive rulebook to guide you through the rules and gameplay.

"Medici" is not just a game of chance; it requires careful planning, a keen eye for value, and the ability to outmaneuver your opponents in the auction. Perfect for players who enjoy strategic bidding and resource management, this game promises to be a valuable addition to any board game collection, available at Boarding School Games.
