Excellent game and rated 7th all time best board game on boardgamegeek.com

The goal is to raise the oxygen level and temperature and to create enough ocean coverage that the planet is habitable.

Corporations are competing to transform Mars into a habitable planet by spending vast resources, and using innovative technology to raise temperature, create a breathable atmosphere, and make oceans of water. As terraforming progresses, more and more people will immigrate from Earth to live on the Red Planet.

In Terraforming Mars, you control a corporation with a certain profile. Play project cards, build up production, place your cities and green areas on the map, and race for milestones and awards! You earn prestige by contributing to the terraforming process and for advancing infrastructure in the solar system.

Significant milestones will also help to determine who becomes the most dominant force on Mars.

Will your corporation lead the way into humanity’s new era?

  Slightly off-topic but it is board game related. Mislims is selling Agra for $5.95. I don't know if it is a price error or not so I haven't posted it.

  Agra is currently rated 7.3 at BGG. Weight is 4.34 (out of 5).

  Price History

  Agra, India: The year is 1572; this year marks the 30th birthday of Abu'l-Fath Jalal-ud-din Muhammad, popularly known as Akbar the Great. Akbar is the third ruler of India's Mughal dynasty, having succeeded his father, Humayun. With the guidance of his regent, Bairam Khan, Akbar has expanded and consolidated India's Mughal domains. Using his strong personality and skill as a general, Akbar has enlarged his Empire to include nearly all of the Indian subcontinent north of the Godavari River; his presence is felt across the entire country due to the Mughals' military, political, cultural, and economic dominance.

  To unify the vast Mughal state, Akbar has established a centralized system of administration; conquered rulers are conciliated through marriage and diplomacy. Akbar has preserved peace and Order throughout his empire by passing laws that have won him the support of his non-Muslim subjects. Eschewing tribal bonds and Islamic state-identity, Akbar has striven to unite his lands. The Mughals' Persian-ized culture has afforded Akbar near-divine status.

  Notables and emissaries from all over the country are on their way for Akbar's birthday celebration. As an ambitious landowner, you cannot let this pass; the festivities are a golden opportunity for you to rise in stature and wealth.

  On your land in Agra, you cultivate and harvest cotton and turmeric. You possess a forest from which you produce wood, as well as a small, but very profitable sandstone quarry. By trading and processing your wares, you can obtain more luxurious goods, which you will then use to woo notables as they make their way into the capital. Of course, your rivals have the same plan; you must use your wits to outsmart them as Akbar's birthday draws near…

      I did see that it was like backorder or something. Even if the price is awesome I don't think I'd ever play it so I never looked at the listing seriously.

    Agra has a complexity rating Weight: 4.34 / 5.
    It's also special order, so the likelihood of your order being cancelled is 5/5.
