Overview

Have the most points at the end of 3 Shifts

Setup

As part of setup, each player will pick 3 Order cards, each card taken one at a time in turn order

Shifts

Each shift comprises of placing workers each until everyone has placed all their workers

Turn

On your turn, either place 1 worker on an empty action space, or place workers onto an occupied space equal to the quantity which was there before + 1 (e.g. if there were 3 workers, you need to put 4 to bump them)

Workers that got bumped are moved to the Canteen

You can only select an action space if you are able to perform it completely

The Bank is a special space, you cannot bump others off it, and always only need 1 Worker, as such any number of players can have any number of Workers there

Once you have run out of workers, you are skipped until the other players have all completed the Shift

Action Spaces

There are 6 types of Spaces (+ the Canteen, which can't be accessed voluntarily)

Lorry

Mining

Delivery

Money

Order

Bank

Lorry

Gain the depicted Tunnel Tile by paying the cost in Marks per Lorry and type of Lorry

Yellow Lorry costs 1 (2 if two)

Brown Lorry costs 2 (4 if two)

Grey Lorry costs 3 (6 if two)

Black Lorry costs 4 (8 if two)

After you've paid for it, each Lorry depicted gains 1 Coal of its same colour

Then it is added to the Pit on its colour level as well as the correct side (Left side has Lanterns in the ceiling, right does not)

There is a special Lorry space which allows you to draw 5 and keep 0 or 1, with the discards either going to the top or end of the draw pile as you wish

This space gives you 1 Mark and, as mentioned, does not bump other Workers, so always only requires 1 Worker
