Dominant Species
← All Dominant Species questions
How is dominance on a tile decided from elements?
The rulebook defines matching and dominance in Key Terms, and players confirm a single matching species dominates.

Each animal counts the element disks on the tile of the types it needs, summed across its types, and it needs at least one species there. The highest count strictly above every other animal present takes dominance; a tie means nobody dominates. An animal with no matching elements cannot dominate, and a lone species with a matching element does. Players claim changes themselves rather than having them happen automatically.
