With fifty historic ships, Crossing Oceans relives the golden age of ocean liners at the beginning of the 20th century. Increasingly larger and faster steamships revolutionized maritime traffic. Bold shipping companies opened steamship lines to major ports worldwide. Modern steel juggernauts replaced traditional sailing ships and competed for dominance on the shipping lanes. Build yourself a thriving merchant fleet and lead it to economic prosperity. Purchase the most modern steamships on the market and take over the precious ports from your rivals. Build an extensive network of trading posts and coal bunkers to expand the capacity of your fleet. Use various options to carry out lucrative transports and win the prestigious Blue Riband of the North Atlantic. Crossing Oceans picks up the theme and some elements of the 2017 board game Transatlantic and puts together an entirely new game on a large historical map.
