Your edition seems to come with the Le Grand Hameau expansion already included, so you have the "fixed" Shipping line along with the faulty one. (Although, maybe both are even the same as they already have fixed the basic Shipping line, but the expansion still includes a replacement card.) You only use 1 Shipping Line in game. You might notice that the Wharves have different ordinal numbers (12 and 17), but the Shipping lines both have 18. There may only be 1 copy of each number in game.by sccy
Hi, I am new to Le Havre. I am trying out the simple version 1-player for the start.by Desiderata
One wharf should be used in the solo and 2-player games.by NBAfan
Building a building means you use your visit a construction building to pay resources for one of the top three buildings on the stacks. In addition to your normal action, you can purchase buildings by paying the money cost and you can also buy buildings that the town owns.by grant5
All of the player count setups have at least one Wharf in the proposals, so you are misinterpreting something in the setup rules. I don't have it all in front of me to explain it again, but there are numerous threads already explaining the answers to your questions about starting buildings (which is confusing). Look through the rules sub-forum a bit and everything should be explained.by Desiderata
The cards with the back that say "Start Building" are the 3 that are in play already built by the town at the beginning of the game. Throughout the game, keep the town's buildings in a separate section of the table than the players' buildings. Off to one side of the board is fine. Also, be sure to distinguish these buildings from the buildings not yet built at the top of the board. These may be built as an action or bought at any time during a player's turn.by sccy
I am trying out the 1-player shortened version. The table on the back of Black Market building card has the word START on it, so to my understanding, it is put on the very top of one of the building proposals piles during set up. Am I right about this?by NBAfan
Start means the town owns it, so set it aside from the 3 building proposal stacks. When the town owns a building, you can place your worker there to use it, but remember to pay the entry cost on it to the bank.by grant5
In 1-player short games the Black Market, Sawmill, and Marketplace start in the town and can be used or purchased just like the Building and Construction Firms.by grant5

Played the shortened, two player online game tonight on iPads in which buildings that were supposed to show up as town buildings did not. In the first case, a player sold a building firm back to the town, and it never showed up as a town building. In the second case, which occured at the end of round 6, the shipping line was the lowest card (by sort order)on top of two stacks of building proposals (third stack had been used up). According to the round card, the town should have built the shipping line. However, after food was paid, the shipping line disappeared completely from the game screen at the beginning of round 7. It was nowhere to be found on either player's game screen, and there were only two town buildings at the time. A third instance occurred when the last building left in the building proposal stacks, the bank, similarly disappeared at the end of round 7. Am I missing a fundamental rule here that I haven't played with in the board game version, or is this a significant bug/game play variation with the IPad version?
