Setup
At the end of setup, before starting the game, shuffle the advisor tiles and place them facedown near the board.
During the Game
At the start of each productive season, the first player in turn order draws one tile, reveals it, and places it on the matching advisor. For the rest of the game, this advisor provides the effect shown on the tile instead.
The rewards of each alternate advisor are explained here:
-
Jester: Gain the rewards from the advisor with the next lowest rank who has not been influenced this season.
-
Squire: Gain 2 "+2" tokens or spend 1 "+2" token to gain 1 gold and recruit 1 soldier.
-
Architect: Gain 1 good, chosen by the player on your left.
-
Merchant: Gain 1 good of your choice from this tile.
When this tile is first placed on the board and whenever there are no goods on it, place 1 gold, 1 wood, and 1 stone from the supply onto this tile.
If multiple players influence this advisor during the same season (for example, by using the king's envoy), they gain this advisor's reward in turn order.
-
Sergeant: Gain the good on this tile.
When this tile is first placed on the board and whenever there are no goods on it, roll a die. On a 1–2, place 1 gold; on a 3–4, place 1 wood; and on a 5–6, place 1 stone on this tile.
If multiple players influence this advisor during the same season (for example, by using the king's envoy), they each gain 1 good of the same type as the good on this tile, taken from the supply. Then return the good on this tile to the supply, and replace it by rolling a die.
-
Alchemist: Spend 1 good of your choice to recruit 1 soldier and gain 1 VP or spend 1 VP to gain 1 good of your choice and recruit 1 soldier or spend 1 soldier to gain 1 good of your choice and gain 1 VP.
Inverted Order Variant
After you have used the standard rules for this module, you can try playing with the following variant:
At the end of setup, place all of the advisor tiles on the matching advisors. At the end of each productive season, remove the advisor tile from the advisor of highest rank who was influenced this season. If no advisor with an advisor tile was influenced this season, instead return the advisor tile of lowest rank still in play to the box.
In a 2-player game, "neutral" dice used to influence additional advisors at the start of each productive season count to determine which advisor tile is removed.
