Barrage – The Colorado Connection
🌊 Barrage conquers America: new dams, new challenges, new connections!
With The Colorado Connection , Barrage expands into a rugged and fascinating territory: the Colorado Gorges! This expansion introduces a new map with new mechanics, including:
- Bridges to be built to connect regions divided by canyons, but which limit the elevation of dams.
- Production facilities that can be activated with engineers, requiring planning and credit management.
- New action spaces with variable costs based on the presence of bridges along the route.
Every choice is critical: building a bridge offers connectivity advantages but limits future expansion. Plan every move carefully, because in Colorado, water flows... but only for those who know how to control it!
Note: This is an expansion. Requires the Barrage base game. Also compatible with The Leeghwater Project .

Product Details
🐸 HOW TO PLAY
1 This expansion introduces a new map set in Colorado, featuring deep canyons that divide the land into three distinct regions: mountains, hills, and plains.
2 The main new feature is the introduction of bridges , which can be built over dams to connect different regions. Once a bridge is built over a dam, it cannot be raised further, so it's crucial to carefully choose when and where to build them.
3 Production Settlements , new action spaces that require the assignment of engineers, are added. Activating these spaces costs credits, which varies depending on whether there are bridges between the construction site and the settlement.
4 The expansion also includes new contract tiles, private buildings, and objectives, offering additional strategy and variability to the base game.
To play this expansion, you must own the Barrage base game. The expansion is also compatible with other expansions such as "The Leeghwater Project."
