<p>Basic beginner considerations</p> <p><b>New page</b></p><div>1. General strategy<br /> <br /> - Buy shares based on expected returns, not potential revenue alone.<br /> <br /> - Keep cash available for future auctions.<br /> <br /> - Focus on making more money than your opponents, not just growing railways.<br /> <br /> 2. Manage your cash<br /> <br /> - Don&#039;t spend your entire bankroll early. Being unable to compete in an important auction can put you at a serious disadvantage.<br /> <br /> - Pay attention to how much cash your opponents have before opening an auction.<br /> <br /> 3. Be strategic with cubes<br /> <br /> - Upgrading a town benefits every shareholder, so think about who gains the most.<br /> <br /> - Removing a cube also changes the odds of future dividends. Look beyond the immediate payout.<br /> <br /> 4. Don&#039;t blindly upgrade towns<br /> <br /> - Cities pay £4 instead of £2, but only when their colour is drawn.<br /> <br /> - Weigh the remaining cubes and likely future dividends before upgrading.<br /> <br /> 5. Time your dividends<br /> <br /> - Compare your expected payout with what your opponents stand to earn.<br /> <br /> - Think about how the payout will affect everyone&#039;s cash and their ability to compete in upcoming auctions.</div>
