How to unlock the Old Movies achievement in Ticket to Ride: Classic Edition - Definitive Guide

Hi People,

I worked with the guide from BeetleRelic1328, but have trouble to get 3 grey routes at the start. So it never happend to me.

I started a game with 2 routes and my first move was to draw new destination tickets. You get very often a third one and with a bit luck you get 4 of them.

After a lot of tries with 2 tickets and dont winning a single game I used my new strategy and I was lucky to get 4 routes and win after a few tries.

Good luck.

I hope you understoud what I mean.
If not, ask, and I try to help.

Greetz from GER

I found it easier with 4 Marg Loughbots. Use the same strategy as described int the Coal Achievement. Pretty much start off by taking 2 cheap cards that you probably won't complete (if they're all grey then maybe). Then just keep on drawing colored cards until you get to all locomotives for the AI to pick. This will force the AI to keep drawing ticket cards until that deck is empty. Slowly place locomotives everywhere (on grays obviously) so that they keep drawing. At the end I only had 70 or so points but everyone else had -50 or so so I won by a landslide.

Any suggestions on who to play when going the 1 v 1 method? Marg is probably easiest, but she whoops me when I play grey only. Huntingbot takes too many other grey lines. Vanderbot is too hard for this achievement. Jane is who I usually play against as I feel she is balanced more to my style of play. But she still convincingly beats me.

Beating 4 AI Vanderbots was far easier than this.

Anyone finding that this achievement is glitched? I just won a game, and I'm certain I only played grey routes, but no achievement. It's possible I accidentally played a colored route, but it's not like it's super difficult to avoid them.

Bad Toast's comment was spot-on, I got it on my first try. Just remember you have to empty the entire deck of colored cards and force the Marg Loughbots to pick up more ticket cards. Don't play any of your cards until each AI player has 5 or more ticket cards in their hands. They should all end up with negative scores - I "won" with only 22 total points.

This achievement requires a lot of luck. Start game with 1 opponent Marg Loughbot, because she is dumb.

I got destination tickets Denver - El Paso, Duluth - Houston and Sault St. Marie - Nashville. All three destination tickets are connected with grey roads, so i decided to take them all. If you have 2 of these, take them. In other case I think it's impossible to get this achievement.

You should take trains to have even counts in different colors, because there are a lot of 2-roads. When you can't take some train to do even count of trains, just take some route to do destinations. You should decide which color you will save for 6-road Winnipeg - Sault St. Marie.

When you have completed your destination tickets, you should build circle with conneting Sault St. Marie - Toronto and Dallas - Little Rock - Saint Louis - Nashville. In the same time you should build 6-road Winnipeg - Sault St. Marie. When you have finished this, You will have long road and you can win 10 points for longest route (like me). If your opponent have the longest route like you, you can get longer for example with Toronto-Montreal-Boston (+3), Pittsburgh - Washington - Raleigh (+2) or Raleigh - Charleston Atlanta (+2) ... if you didn't build this way before.

If you have the longest route, you should get some points with 4-roads or 3-roads. 4- roads Are Helena - Calgary and Calgary - Seattle. When you will run out your trains, just pray that your points are enough.

I got with this achievement Hand Car achievement because It's easy to build 2-roads ways without joker locomotives... So I think you can try it like me.

Good luck!
