From BGG ...
The Avalon Hill edition is a one to four player game, featuring the Spanish (green counters), French (blue counters), English (pink counters) and Portuguese (yellow counters). This edition of the game was published in 1982 with a mounted map in a bookcase box. The "Fur Traders & Buccaneers" variant in The GENERAL Vol.21 No.5 added counters and rules for Dutch, Danish, and slave units.

- I believe you should be able to use 1.0 saved files with version 1.1 as there are no changes to the game pieces, map, artwork or traits. I have not tested this however. Like explorers to the new world, if you go there, please let me know.
