These rules are beta -- also consult the rulebook
Start of game
Players each start as a particular region/faction, with their own starting projects and other values.
Stages in a Round
Global Stage (round setup)
Players pick a global project to work on that round, as well as view one of the crisis cards for that round
Local Stage (playing cards)
Each player draws 5 cards to use during this stage, though this number can be raised or lowered through other effects. Players can take actions at the same time, and each player can use their cards in a few ways:
- Play a card over a current project, replacing the project. The old project's tags are contributed to the new project -- so for example, you may want to play a money project over another money project.
- Tuck a card under a current project, adding the card's tag to the current project
- Tuck a card under any global project to activate its effect for the rest of the game
- Tuck a card under the revealed crisis to weaken it
- Use the card later when activating a project's ability
Also some project cards can be activated -- possibly multiple times unless it mentions otherwise.
