Funkenschlag

Fabel-Erweiterung

 

The Fable Concept is about game play with pre-sorted stacks of cards that introduce all cards and rules of a game during several game plays. In the Fabled Expansion for Power Grid, there are two Fabled Decks for use with all four boards of Funkenschlag / Power Grid and Funkenschlag / Power Grid deluxe, for campaigns of three games each.

Use use the deck that corresponds to the selected map from one of the two core games. The 15 cards in a deck are numbered, the rules state a display arrangement using those numbers for both decks. During the game, you reveal Fabled cards and add their actions and rules to the game; the order of their introduction depends on individual game play of players. Some Fabled cards might remain unrevealed to the end of the game or might be removed from play again according to the instructions on another card.

You always adhere to the rules of the basic game; however, changes introduced by Fabled cards take precedence. The conditions to reveal a Fabled card must all be met to reveal the card; in case of an “and” wording, all conditions must be met, in case of “or” one met condition is sufficient. For a game of two players you use the rules from the variant “ Against the Trust” which is included in Funkenschlag deluxe or available as download.

You can play additional games after the end of the campaign, can change the number of players within the campaign or start a new campaign with other players in the middle of a game.

Power Grid on its own is fabulous, this Fabled  expansion changes the game, but changes nothing on the fabulous status of core game and expansion! Try it!
