AshLondon: /* BUILDING RULES */

=NEXT STATION=

==AIM==
connect stations to score points

you get to build multiple lines

==BUILDING RULES==
Each new line starts at a special starting station for its colour - it will be flashing

Different players start at different stations (on their own card) and draw different lines

A card will be drawn that all players must follow

The card that is drawn shows which station you need to draw to next - based on the shape (circle, triangle etc)

On the first go you must draw from the starting station to a station of that shape

After the first go, you can choose to draw from either end of your line (but not from stations in between)

But some special cards with a junction symbol specifically allow you to branch out from the middle of the line

You can only join up with stations along a dotted line - and you can't jump over a station in between

You can't cross lines apart from at interchange stations

==POINTS==
score points for

*how many zones each line goes through
*most number of stations in one zone for a line
*how often your line crosses the river Thames

plus
*attractions your stations stop at [marked by spiky outer circle]
*interchanges

AshLondon: /* Rules Summary */

== Rules Summary ==
=== Phases ===
The game is made up of multiple rounds of 4 phases: workers, buildings, aristocrats, trade
You buy cards for the number of roubles shown on the card.
If you already have one or more of the cards, they come at a discount - 1 rouble less for each card of the same type (but they always cost at least 1 rouble).
On the second round onwards, cards that were not used in the last round are moved to the lower row - those cards cost 1 rouble less.

=== Worker Phase (Green Cards) ===
In this phase you buy worker cards. At the end of the round, you are paid 3 roubles for every worker you have.

=== Trading Cards ===
==== Displacing trading cards: ====
* Blue trading cards can displace any already placed building.
* Red trading cards can displace any already placed aristocrat.
* Each green trading card must replace a specific type of worker (players can recognize pairs of green trading cards and their predecessor by matching symbols in the upper right of the cards):
** Carpenter Workshop - Lumberjack
** Gold Smelter - Gold Miner
** Weaving Mill - Shepherd
** Fur Shop - Fur Trapper
** Wharf - Ship Builder
* A trading card _cannot_ displace another trading card.

==== Paying for trading cards: ====
* If trading card is more expensive than the card it displaces, the cost is the difference between the two.
* If trading card is the same cost or cheaper than the card it displaces, the cost is 1 ruble.
* All other normal cost reductions from other cards _do_ also apply to trading cards.
