== REQUIREMENTS IN YOUR EXHIBITION ==


'''ASCENDING YEARS'''
'''Years must ascend'''


Each card must show a year that is higher than each of its left-side cards and lower than each of its right-side cards in the same showcase.
Within each showcase, each card must display a higher year than cards on its left side and lower than cards on its right side.


'''DIFFERENT CONTINENTS'''
'''Continents Must Be Different'''


Each continent (card color) in a showcase must be unique. Except for the ONE CONTINENT showcase.
Within each showcase, each card's continent/color must be unique (except for the One Continent Showcase).


'''Showcase ONE CONTINENT'''
'''One Continent Showcase'''


Here all cards must have the same continent. And it must be a continent that no other player has in their ONE CONTINENT showcase!
Within the One Continent Showcase, all cards must have the same continent/color '''AND''' it must be a continent no other player has in ''their'' One Continent Showcase.


'''Showcase ONE ERA'''
'''One Era Showcase'''


Neighboring cards cannot have more than 10 years difference. With 1 spot between 2 cards the gap can be 20 years maximum, with 2 spots free between the gap can be 30 years maximum.
Neighboring cards cannot have a difference of more than 10 years. That means the difference between 3 cards can be a maximum of 20 years, 4 cards with 30 years, etc.


== SPECIAL CARDS (1945 and Einstein) ==
== Special White Cards ==


To fit the REQUIREMENTS you can choose to which continent, and to which year (only for 'Einstein' card), the card belongs. But the chosen 'year'/'continent' doesn't count for any fame points!
There are 2 white cards that do not pertain to any continent: ''1945'' and ''Albert Einstein''. These cards do not count for points, but they can be used to fill gaps inbetween showcases. For ''1945,'' the continent is "wild", but the year is not. For ''Albert Einstein'' both the continent and year are wild.


== FINAL EXHIBITIONS ==
== Final Exhibitions ==


Your game ends if:
The game ends if 1) All 16 Exhibition Hall spots are filled 2) You cannot place a card in your Exhibition Hall and either cannot or will not place one in one of your 3 Depot spots.
*All your (16) EXHIBITION HALL spots are filled, or:

Cards in your DEPOT don't count for calculating game points!.
Cards in your Depot don't count for calculating game points.


=== FAME POINTS WHILE BUILDING YOUR EXHIBITION ===
The first player with at least 1 card from each of the 6 continents anywhere in their EXHIBITION HALL gets 5 fame points. The second player gets 4. The third player gets 3. The fourth player gets 2. The fifth player gets 1.

Players who reach this goal in the same round get the same fame points.


The first player with at least 1 card of each of the 6 continents anywhere in their EXHIBITION HALL, gets 5 fame points(fp), the 2nd player 4, the 3rd player 3, the 4th player 2, and the 5th player 1. All players who reach this goal in the same round, get the same fp. A round lasts until all players, after the first player (who has the score sheet) had their turn.
=== End Game ===
''So if 3 players got their 6th continent in their 11th turn, and no one reached that yet, they all get 5fp.''


When players get the same fp, the next player(s) with 6 continents gets the next lower fp.
'''Years Gap Showcase'''
''So in above example the 4th player, in for example round 13, gets 4fp, and the 5th player in a later round gets 3fp.''


=== FAME POINTS AFTER ALL EXHIBITIONS ARE FINAL ===
The player with the biggest gap between the 2 cards in this showcase gets 5 fame points. The second biggest gap brings 4 fame points. Third gets 3 fame points. Fourth gets 2 fame points.

In case of equal gaps, the equal players get the same fp. The next payer(s) get the next lower fp. ''Same as with '6 continents' goal (see above).'' Players with an empty spot or the 'Einstein' card in this showcase, score 0fp.
As many fame points as the largest number of cards of the same continent. White cards don't count.


'''CONTINENT FOCUS'''
'''Number of Decades'''


You get fp equal to the number of cards of your most frequent continent. ''The 1945 and 'Einstein' cards do not count''
One fame point per decade you have 1 or more cards of. (10 fame points max)


'''NUMBER OF DECADES'''
'''Chain of Years'''


1 fp per decade you have 1 or more cards of. ''So 10fp (10 decades) maximum. Decades are 1900-1909, 1910-1919, 1920-1929, etc. The 'Einstein' card does not count.
One fame point per card in your longest series of consecutive years (ex. 1916, 1917, 1918...). These cards don't have to be adjacent to each other. The minimum score is 1 point.

Shuffle these 10 cards and deal 1 to each player. Keep your card secret from other players until the end of game. Players will score 1fp per SUBJECT card whose year matches their secret decade card.

Special White Cards

There are 2 white cards that do not pertain to any continent: 1945 and Albert Einstein. These cards do not count for points, but they can be used to fill gaps inbetween showcases. For 1945, the continent is "wild", but the year is not. For Albert Einstein both the continent and year are wild.

Final Exhibitions

The game ends if 1) All 16 Exhibition Hall spots are filled 2) You cannot place a card in your Exhibition Hall and either cannot or will not place one in one of your 3 Depot spots.

Others may keep playing turns.

The first player with at least 1 card from each of the 6 continents anywhere in their EXHIBITION HALL gets 5 fame points. The second player gets 4. The third player gets 3. The fourth player gets 2. The fifth player gets 1.

Players who reach this goal in the same round get the same fame points.

End Game

Years Gap Showcase

The player with the biggest gap between the 2 cards in this showcase gets 5 fame points. The second biggest gap brings 4 fame points. Third gets 3 fame points. Fourth gets 2 fame points.

Penalty Points

Subtract 1 fame point per empty spot in your Exhibition Hall

Subtract 1 fame point for each card in your Depot.

Tiebreaker

If two players have an equal number of fame points, the player with the card closest to 1950 in the 1950 Showcase wins. If both players have a card that's equally close, they draw.

Secret Decade Variant

Shuffle 10 "Secret Decade" cards. Deal 1 to each player. Keep your card secret from other players until the end of game. Players score 1 fame point per card that matches your secret decade.

Variation Showcases

Variation Showcases can be added to the base game showcases.

Each player uses the same set.

The 2 white cards can't be placed in Variation Showcases.

General rules (e.g. ascending years, different continents) apply to Variation Showcases as well.

  • All 6 continents are worth only 1 fame point.
  • Mid-century gives you 1 fame point minus 200 fame points per year between 1950 and your card's year.
  • Years gap: If this showcase is full and does not contain the Albert Einstein card, score 5 fame points minus 1 fame point per available card (below the continents) being lower than the left card or higher than the right one. Fame points cannot be negative.
  • Short era: If this showcase is full and does not contain the Albert Einstein card, score 5 fame points minus 1 fame points per available card (below the continents) being within your era (higher than the left card and lower than the right one). Fame points cannot be negative.
