About this converter
Ticket to Ride USA scores routes by train length on a fixed table. One train scores 1, two score 2, three score 4, four score 7, five score 10 and six score 15. The Longest Continuous Path bonus pays a fixed 10 to the winner or tied winners. That makes one six train route equal fifteen single trains. Short routes score fast while long routes pay far better per train. Every value here is the Days of Wonder route scoring table. Destination tickets add or subtract their own values at the end, but those values vary by card and stay out of these fixed rows.
How to use it
Pick two route lengths and the unit in the top row. The three boxes below stay linked. Change any box and the other two update. One box holds a count of the first, one holds the matching count of the second, one holds the total in points. Try 1 six train route against single trains to see the 15 to 1 gap.
Only seven fixed scores exist in the base game, so this table is complete at seven rows. The omission is deliberate: destination ticket values differ per card and cannot reduce to fixed rows. Europe adds stations and tunnels with their own rules, also noted but not rowed. Ties for longest path share the 10 point bonus.
FAQ
