Augsburg 1520

In the 16th century, Jakob Fugger built an impressive trading empire centered in Augsburg. He earned so much money, that he was able to loan large amounts to royals in need of cash. As the royals were often unable to repay the loans, Jakob was more than willing to accept the special privileges the could offer instead – privileges that allowed him to become even richer and more powerful! Players take on the role of Jakob and compete to earn the most prestige by loaning money for privilege.
