(More customer reviews)This is a two sided map that is an expansion to Power Grid, which you need to already have.
One side is France, which has cheaper Nuclear as well as a little gimmic where Paris is a three city block that has free connections between the three cities. Overall, the cheaper nuclear tends to make all resources cheaper based on supply and demand and leads to an "easier" game. This would be a nice map for beginners.
On the other hand.
Italy. Italy is the exact opposite. Resources are way rarer and you can find yourself really paying a premium to power your plants. Add to that the fact that southern Italy has some pretty high connections, and the game starts to get really competitive. I would classify Italy as a map for more experienced players, and it just might be my favorite so far.
If you're looking to expand past the US and Germany maps included in the base game, then I would for sure start with this expansion. You get 1 "easy" map, and 1 "advanced" map in my opinion.
Oh, and don't be confused by the black and white picture here. The actual maps are full color and the same nice quality art as the original maps.

This is an expansion pack, so you will need the Power Grid game to use it.As with the original, the board has a different map on each side: France and Italy. Along with the maps are small rule changes to reflect the power culture in these two countries.France, a land that has embraced nuclear power, has an earlier start with atomic plants and more uranium available. Italy has more waste, but fewer coal and oil resources.The result is not just new maps, but new ways to play this great game!
