Chicago Express profit worksheet.xls
|
CE.xls 183 KB
This spreadsheet created to analyze the profit/loss of shares purchased over the course of a game of Chicago Express/Wabash Cannonball. Each page in the workbook covers a round of the game and is linked the previous page. The 'Game analysis' sheet gives the profit/loss for shares purchased in each RR company.
This workbook can used to analyze the decisions in your games, or to run hypothetical games.
One word of caution: When you save the file and open it, save it as a different name when you use it. Entering in the income levels of RR companies and results of auctions overwrites formulas in the respective cells, so you'll need to not save the changes or open the original file to use it for a different game.
Hope you find it interesting.

B&W Simple Board
|
CHEX.png 1.23 MB
A black and white, easy-to-look at board to replace the beautiful but garish board that comes with Chicago Express.
I suggest using posterazor to cut the image up in the way that most pleases you. Inkscape SVG file available upon request.
A colourised, updated version is in the works, but the B&W version is perfectly playable fresh off the printer. And you can colour it in with coloured pencil or watercolours or what-have-you if you'd like.
For economy of space, no Wabash charter is present on this map.

Accounting Spreadsheet
|
WabashBookkeeping.xls 96 KB
I whipped up this spreadsheet this weekend with formulae to take all of the work out of calculating dividends in Chicago Express/Wabash Cannonball. Each time a player purchases a share, you update the player's share holdings in the table. Each time a company's income is increased, simply update the company's income on the sheet and each player's total general dividend payout is updated in real-time so that payouts are already calculated for you when they arise.

Dividends Per Share Chart
|
DividendsPerShareChart.pdf 30 KB
This chart is an expansion of the Railroad Income Chart which lets you easily track the payouts for each share and not have to remember whether to round up or round down. Each column is income level, and each row is dividend per number of outstanding shares. When a new share is capitalized, just move the railroad’s cube up one row and it will be sitting on the minimum bid amount (which is the dividend amount). The red squares are a reminder that you must subtract one from the dividend for a Chicago Dividend. Green squares always pay the listed value whether General or Chicago.
Print on cardstock, cut to fit, join the two pieces together, and optionally laminate it.
