Again It's still Power Grid, It's still good - I like the speed variant played on the Benelux board in case you just have to have a game of Power Grid but don't have a huge amount of time to play. Central Europe just adds a little something different to an already good nay great game. 4 Plays. Benelux 3, Central Europe 1.

Description
Two new expansion maps for Power Grid: Benelux on one side and Central Europe on the other. Along with the maps are small rule changes to reflect the power culture in these two countries. As the Benelux countries support ecological power, players may have greater opportunities to acquire such power plants. Also, oil is more available and coal less available in these countries. As Poland has large coal supplies, coal will be much more plentiful than elsewhere in Central Europe. However, due to political stands taken by some countries, players may be limited in their access to nuclear power. The result is not just new maps, but new ways to play this great game!

I love Power Grid, but I thought this map expansion would be worth while originally. Not many of the rules change, so it is just a new map. Boy was I wrong! It is amazing how the little changes can drastically effect the game and make it different than base game! It truely shows the game's brilliance in design.
I really like the Benelux expansion and like the "sped-up" features it brings. I think the "lowest and highest" power plant going away at the end of the turn may help the game in any format from dragging down in the middle....like it normally does....anxious to try that rule on other maps as well....
Beneluxe is great as an intro to the power grid series. The central europe nuclear restriction pact would have been more interesting if the game had additional nuclear and trash power plants to increase the tension in the game.
Benelux: The Benelux map is great. The board is tight and the costs are low. The system pushes green plants into play quicker and dumps worthless plants sooner. All in all the pace is just right where it needs to be. Great! Central Europe: The no nukes is a nice idea, I'm not sure how well it works. Perhaps if Poland were cheaper it would make more sense. I do like the Vienna trash reduction (and proliferation) though, it actually makes trash a viable strategy from early on.
CAUTION! Not suitable for children under 3 years of age. It contains small parts which could be swallowed or inhaled.
