2 In playr ordr, vry playr may mov a singl ovrsr mpl o thir color in th min onc, with th purpos o collcting rsourcs by gnrating workrs. Atr ach playr has mad a movmnt in th min, th irst playr in th playr ordr may mak a scond ovrsr movmnt, howvr doing so will lock thm into last plac in th turn ordr or th ollowing round (s pag ). Th ollowing rstrictions apply to ovrsr movmnt: Ovrsrs can mov in straight lins across th grid through any numbr o mpty hxs. Ovrsrs can only nd thir movmnt on an unoccupid hx. Ovrsrs can mov through any numbr o contiguous workrs (rgardlss o color) atr moving through any numbr o mpty hxs, but must thn nd thir movmnt on th nxt unoccupid hx.

MINE PHASE: STRIKES Atr rsourcs ar producd, chck th min or contiguous groups o or mor workrs o th sam color. Ths groups o sam-colord workrs go on strik and ar rmovd rom th board.

3 MINE PHASE: STRIKES Atr rsourcs ar producd, chck th min or contiguous groups o or mor workrs o th sam color. Ths groups o sam-colord workrs go on strik and ar rmovd rom th board. Playrs must chck or strik atr any changs ar mad to th min (i.. ovrsr movmnts or workr movmnts). MINE PHASE: EXAMPLE For blu s ovrsr movmnt, h movs his ovrsr to th right, jumping ovr our workrs ( blu and yllow). First, h gnrats a workr on th spac th ovrsr lavs a. H thn passs ovr his own workr b. Out o his opponnts, purpl has th wst workrs on th board ( to yllow s ), so that blu workr bcoms purpl. Th ovrsr thn passs ovr yllow workrs and turns thm blu c. H now passs ovr anothr blu workr d, but now thr ar purpl workrs (+) and yllow workr (-), so th last blu workr bcoms yllow. a b c d H thn must nd his mov on th nxt unoccupid spac. Blu gts iron and mrald or this mov. Yllow and purpl both gt a coppr. Lastly, th yllow workrs that bcam blu c now orm a group o blu workrs with th blu workrs abov and blow thm, which is nough or a strik, so ths workrs ar rmovd g. g MINE PHASE: REARRANGE PLAYER ORDER At th nd o ach min phas, playr ordr is rarrangd basd on th numbr o workrs in th min. Tally th numbr o workrs ach playr currntly owns in th min. Whovr has th wst workrs is now irst playr, th playr with th nxt wst is scond and so on. I thr is a ti, th ordr or thos tid rlativ to ach othr bcoms opposit o what it was prviously. Excption: i th irst playr in th min phas took thir scond ovrsr movmnt, thy ar automatically lockd into last plac in th ordr dtrmination and ar not considrd whn dtrmining th othr playrs ordr. Exampl: In th -playr xampl abov, th playr ordr startd as purpl, yllow, blu, and so blu is th last to mov. Purpl dclins to tak an xtra mov, so a nw playr ordr is now dtrmind. Blu has th wst workrs (), so thy ar movd to irst in th ordr. Purpl and yllow ar tid with workrs ach, so thir ordr switchs rlativ to ach othr rom what it was prviously, so th nw ordr bcoms blu, yllow, purpl. I purpl had takn an xtra movmnt, thy would hav bn last ithr way, so it probably would hav bn advantagous to do so.

Similar to uniqu wapon dsigns, purchasd markt bonus cards go to th lt o a playr s mat and rmain thr or th rmaindr o th gam, providing a prmannt bonus. Markt stalls: ths cards allow th playr who owns thm to xchang th numbr o on typ o rsourc shown or th numbr o th othr typ o rsourc shown onc ach round. [Excption: Tradr s Savvy can allow a playr to us a markt stall multipl tims in a round (s blow).] This xchang can go ithr way. For instanc, card shows on ruby on th lt m and two iron on th right n.

A playr can only own a singl copy o any givn markt stall xchang. m n

6 Markt savvy: thr ar our typs o savvy cards: Buyr s Savvy incrass th numbr o rsourcs th playr can buy rom th mrchant ach round by on (s pag 7). Sllr s Savvy incrass th amount o gold th playr gains rom slling a rsourc to th mrchant by on (s pag 7). Tradr s Savvy allows th playr to us on o thir markt stalls on xtra tim ach round. Advnturr s Savvy allows a playr to mov up a qust an xtra stp whn thy tak th road markt action (s pag ). Unlik markt stalls, playrs can own multipl copis o th markt savvy cards.

Whn th card is purchasd and th bnit is rcivd, th card is thn rmovd rom th gam instad o bing placd on th playr s mat. Th symbol in th bottom right cornr o th card is a rmindr o this. Do not discard th purchasd card into th markt discard dck (s pag ). I th card gav th purchasr an ovrsr or workr movmnt, playrs must chck or striks atr th movmnt is mad (s pag ). MARKET ACTIONS In th markt phas, playrs can tak a singl action in th markt ara o th board by placing on o thir colord woodn disks on an action spac. This occurs in playr ordr, starting with th irst playr. Thr ar two typs o action spacs: Closd circls: only on playr can plac a disk on this spac ach round. Whn a playr placs a disk hr, it blocks latr playrs. Opn circls: any numbr o playrs can plac thir disk on ths spacs.

7 A playr can tak on o th ollowing actions: Blacksmith (closd): Purchas th ac-up uniqu wapon dsign a. Bazaar (closd): Purchas a ac-up bonus b or singl-us c card. In th -playr gam, thr is only on spac that givs accss to all our cards. In a or -playr gam, thr ar two spacs on or th two bonus cards and on or th two singl-us cards. Barracks (closd): Prorm on or both o th ollowing actions: hir a nw lvl advnturr or gold d and lvl up on o th advnturrs in your supply by paying th currnt lvl o th advnturr (lvling rom to costs on gold, lvling rom to costs two gold and so on). I both purchass ar mad, th advnturr lvld up cannot b th on just purchasd. 6 In th pic gam, th cost o hiring an advnturr is dpndnt on th currnt stag. Th cost is gold in stag, gold in stag and 6 gold in stag. Clrk (opn): Claim on o th public wapon dsigns displayd blow th board by placing a colord claim cub on th card. Whn a playr claims a card, thy must pay th pric listd on th card to th supply, plus pay on gold to ach playr who has alrady claimd th dsign. Road (opn): Rush a singl qust by moving its qust trackr cub up on stp (s pag 8). This action costs nothing. I this movmnt would mov th qust trackr cub to a nw lg and thus complting th currnt lg, th physical rwards or th compltd lg ar rcivd at this tim (s pag ). Th Road action cannot b usd to complt a qust. Not that th Advnturr s Savvy card allows a playr to mov th qust orward an additional stp or ach o ths cards thy possss. For instanc, i a playr has two advnturr s savvy cards, thy can tak th road action spac to rush a singl qust orward thr stps. Combind with th singl stp that qusts progrss on thir own ach round, this would rsult in th qust progrssing our stps total in a singl round. It is not mandatory to tak an action ach round. A playr may choos to pass, in which cas thy rciv on gold rom th bank. Onc all playrs hav takn a singl action or passd, th markt phas is ovr and any unpurchasd ac-up cards still on th board ar movd to th markt discard dck.
