Alan the Binturong: /* END OF GAME */ Edited to correct end game trigger conditions

=== OBJECTIVE ===
Recruit adventurers for your guild, optimize your formation, and collect the most '''Victory Points''' (VP) through combat, technology, magic, and fulfilling quests.

=== SETUP ===
* Each player receives a '''player board''' and 4 markers (Combat, VP, Technology, Magic).
* Place the shared '''Combat and Victory board''' in the center.
* Each player starts with '''3 Money''' and a starting hand of '''5 cards'''.
* Display the Quest cards face-up.

=== GAMEPLAY (Multiple Rounds) ===
Each round consists of 3 phases, played simultaneously:

1. '''Recruit Phase:'''
* You may play '''one card''' from your hand by paying its cost (top left) in gold.
* Place it in your 3x3 grid. If the slot is occupied, the old card is '''replaced''' (discarded).
* Alternatively: Pass and take '''2 Money'''.

2. '''Activation Phase:'''
* Activate the effects of the cards in your grid.
* '''Line Bonuses:''' If you have 3 cards of the same '''Faction''' or '''Profession''' in a row or column, a bonus effect is triggered.
* Collect Combat Power, Money, Magic, or Technology points.

3. '''Battle & Draw Phase:'''
* Compare your '''Combat Power''' with your neighbors (left and right).
* The stronger player receives VP based on the current level on the shared board.
* Discard any number of hand cards and draw back up to '''5 cards'''.

=== KEY CONCEPTS ===
* '''Factions:''' There are 6 different factions (e.g., Floating City, Mining Company) essential for line bonuses.
* '''Professions:''' Warrior, Wizard, Merchant, etc., also determine synergies within the grid.
* '''Tech & Magic:''' These tracks grant additional victory points at the end of the game or via card effects.
* '''Resources:''' Symbols on cards that provide permanent cost reductions for recruiting.

=== END OF GAME ===
The game ends at the end the round where a player has '''9 cards''' in their grid or a player reaches '''40 VPs'''.
* Every 3 remaining money converts to 1 VP.
* The player with the most VP (including end game scoring bonus effects) wins.
