"The Mediterranean Sea is the lifeline for merchants living in the lands
on its shores. In Oltre Mare, players represent competing merchant
families plying their trade throughout the region. As the players move
their ships from port to port, they try to load and deliver large
cargos of the seven major trading goods of the day: spices, silk,
silver, sugar, wine, wood, and grain. With experience, each has learned
what the market limit for each good is, and will try to fill his ship
with just this much of each cargo type to gain the most from his
investments. Of course, players must always be on the lookout for
pirates, who will board careless ships, stealing both cargos and
reputations. The most successful player will earn the most money -- you
are merchants, after all -- and win the game!"
