Components
Order tokens: 15 (5 coffee, 5 cake, 5 champagne). Sort them by their numbers: 1 = coffee, 2 = cake, 3 = champagne.
Setup
For a game you need number of players + 1 tokens of each colour.
When you start a round with a new card pile, place the order tokens with the matching number of that pile (1, 2 or 3) ready.
Clearing the Dishes
Before you place new tokens, you must return all remaining order tokens of the previous round to the box. You can only ever acquire order tokens from the current round.
Gameplay
When it is your turn, you may acquire order tokens on display. To do so, you must pay 2 coins from your player board for each token.
Each token you acquire must be assigned to a railroad car in one of your two trains. Note the following:
- The railroad car must have the same colour as the token or a higher value. If a railroad car already has an order token on it, you cannot place another one there. If you have no free railroad car in the required colours (celebrities and passengers/luggage play no role here), you cannot acquire the token.
- In each of your trains you may have only 1 token of each colour. So you can acquire at most 2 order tokens per pile.
- You can acquire the tokens independently of each other, i.e. you do not need coffee in order to acquire cake or champagne later.
Example:
You acquire a cake and pay 2 coins. You place the order token on your 4-value railroad car of the lower train.
Scoring Phase
During the scoring phase, the order tokens earn you additional points, namely as many points as the number in their top left corner (coffee 7, cake 9, champagne 11).
You receive these points as usual when your conductor has already moved to or past the railroad car with the token.
Note: The celebrities from Module B do not double the value of the order tokens.
