Altiplano Der Reisende

New missions and events on the high plains

In the South American Andes, the population achieves prosperity with fishing, alpaca breeding and mining. Limited resources demand road construction, accessing of new production sites or resources as well as stockpiling. Roles in the game limit access to resources at the start but give special actions. Resources have individual characteristics and ranges of application. In a round, players draw tiles from their bags for the planning cases, transfer them to action cases and then resolve those actions until all have passed. At the end, you score commodities tiles, boats, houses, completed orders and house bonuses as well as stocks.

The Altiplano der Reisende expansion introduces new ideas for the population of the South American Andes. New components are expansion boards Traveler for the action boards, a new mission “Own minimum three achievements at the end” and events, which you can also use without the Traveler, they enter the game in the new Phase 0 of the round. In the planning phase you can now place discs on action cases on the Traveler strip and on achievements from the public trading point. Basic actions of the Traveler are Acquire Opal or Acquire Achievement, maximum one per round, or Buy Goods. At the end of the round, the Traveler moves to the next board part without a player pawn.

Der Reisende The Traveler demands more intensive planning of your moves and actions, as the resources provided by the traveler give you new options to enhance your income. At the same time, the access to resources is even more interactive than in the core game. The new events, however, can interfere with your planning and demand quick on-the-spot decisions.
