This expansion brings two major changes to the game: the village and raids.
The village is a new engine that you will improve as the game progresses. This engine is powered by spending piece money (new resource) and will improve the various actions you can do in the game. Each village is unique, it's up to you to match it to your strategies!
Raids will significantly increase interaction in the game. Each time you explore a new destination (or if you have upgraded your village to raid otherwise), you collect a raid token. When all the tokens have been taken, it triggers positive events for the player with the most tokens and negative events for the player with the fewest. And everything is amplified according to the buildings in your village...
