Overview

Obtain a variety of different Estates over the course of 16 rounds in order to be the richest Estate holder

Setup

As part of setup, place your Lord on an empty Plot tile on the top row

Turn

Before anyone takes their turn, discard the unselected plot tiles from the current row

Turn order is based on your Lords position in current row, leftmost going earliest

Move your Lord to an empty plot on the next row (the lowest row wraps round to the 1st row) and take the plot your Lord came from and place it on your Estate of the same type

After placing the tile in the associated Estate gain the Effect then the Income of that Estate

When everyone has taken a turn, refill the now empty row with new tiles (If you run out of draw tiles, depending on player count, either simply reshuffle the discards OR add new tiles in from the Orange Deck)

On the 4th, 8th, 12th, and 16th rounds you will also trigger the active Event

Estates

Field - Gain a coin for each Farmer THEN gain 2 coins for each Field

Mill - Each player with fewer Mills than you gives you 2 coins THEN gain 2 coins for each Mill

Village - Move a tile from your Cemetery to its Estate without activating it THEN gain 2 coins for each Village and each Rampart

Rampart - Place your Scout on a tile in a row your Lord is not present to reserve it and prevent others from claiming it THEN gain 2 coins for each Field and each Rampart (Note: You do not have to pick the reserved tile, but when your Lord reaches your Scout's row, if you do not pick the reserved tile then your Scout is returned to you)

Market - Gain a coin for each Chest THEN gain 2 coins for each Mill and each Market

Barracks - Any other player whose Rampart quantity is lower than your Barrack quantity place their leftmost and topmost tile in their Cemetery and give you 2 coins THEN gain 2 coins for each Village and each Barracks

Church - Place an Extra Coin token onto any Estate with a free space for one which permanently boosts its effect going forward THEN gain 3 coins for each Church

Palace - Place a Plot token onto any Estate with a free space for it and that does not already reward that plot type which now permanently rewards the new plot type also going forward THEN gain 3 coins for each Palace
