Shannon Appelcline's Summary:

A very nice addition to the Empire Builder line, with a few unique rules that thematically match the Russian landscape.

Have you played EuroRails, though? If I remember correctly, it has both potatoes and ferries, with ferry rules just like what you describe for the Caspian Sea. So that's not really a new rule.

I haven't played ER.

In any case, I wasn't going for the new rules, exactly, but rather the rules that make an individual game unique. Since ferries aren't used in every game, they're fair game.
