Introduction - [RBP Help Contents]

Welcome to the Rail Baron® game, RBP.

PLAYING A GAME (QUICK START)

If this is the first time you have used RBP on your device, and you want to get started playing right away, after you close this help window:

1) If the "About Rail Baron" window is open, close it.

2) From the Game pull-down menu, choose Start Game.

3) In the Game Setup/Configuration window that appears, click OK.

The three quick steps above will start a 4-player game with 3 computer opponents and 1 human player. Via the drop down menus you can choose a skill level of the computer players. The blue color is the human player (you). RBP will automatically make decisions for the computer players, and, when it is your turn, tell you about your home city, destinations, dice rolls, etc.
