Houston, TX, June 18, 2008 --(PR.com)-- Todd Derscheid, designer of "18IA: Building Iowa's Railroads," announces that the first 100 customers to preorder 18IA will receive a special bonus sheet of tiles and private company tokens when the game is produced. Customers who preorder can also opt for a signed and numbered original.

18IA is a economic strategy game for 2-5 players lasting about 240 minutes, set in Iowa and simulating the rise of Iowa's rail network. 18IA incorporates elements of the popular 18xx game series (originated by Francis Tresham's groundbreaking "1829," "1830," and "1825" series of games).
