Worth it
- Our take
- A BGG regular puts France/Italy in the less-advanced group of maps that stays close to base play, with the France map also a favourite of the thread author.
- What you need first
- Needs Power Grid or Power Grid: Recharged.
Power Grid · Expansion
France / Italy Recharged
- What it adds
- Map pair: France starts nuclear earlier with more uranium, while Italy has expensive coal and oil and more garbage.
- What it fixes
- Adds a map that plays close to the base rules but changes which plants matter, including the usually weak 11 and 17.
