Table of Contents
Components
- 1 Nessie figure
- 26 Nessie cards
Setup Changes
- After the usual setup of the Rondel, place the Nessie figure between the empty Tile space and the next face-up A Tile. Nessie stays there for the whole game.
- Shuffle the 26 Nessie cards and make a face-down draw pile.
New Rules
- A player's turn has a new step. After moving your Playing Piece forward, but before taking the Tile, check whether you passed the Nessie figure on the Rondel. If you did, draw a card from the Nessie deck and carry out its instructions.
- You may buy and sell on the market before drawing the card [and/or before activating other instant effects, for example the Loch Ness landmark: from the Russian translation], but you cannot use the market while carrying out the Nessie card's instructions [unless the card says otherwise: from the Russian translation].
- No Nessie card can ever give you more than 6 VP.
- After carrying out the card, discard it face up and continue your turn [unless the card says otherwise: from the Russian translation].
Nessie Card Effects
