At $21 per game shipped, this is a pretty good deal. An interesting mix of games. Each with individual mechanics, not a lot of overlap in terms of strategy, so one isn't going to make another irrelevant. The rankings on BGG are decent for each, New Amsterdam at the top of the heap of three. Best I can make for all three is ~86 without shipping. Worth a leap, and never mind the history angle, they're good games in general.
