Turn

On your turn, either Offer to a Card or Offer to the Great Tree

In addition, you may optionally play a Rune Tile

Offer to a Card

If there is an unoccupied space on a card, displayed on the upper edge, you can place your piece there to take the bonus but you may be required to pay a cost if present

The cost can either be a set colour or it could be of the colour you have a majority of

There are a number of different effects found on the cards

Some give you Favour tokens of a specific colour

Some give you Favour tokens of the colour you have the least of

Some let you draw a Rune Tile

Some will score you a point for each unique colour you currently posses

Some will score you a point for each of a specific colour you hold

Some will score you a point for each token of your majority colour

Offer to the Great Tree

You can place an offering on any unoccupied space of the Great Tree

At the start of the game, all spaces are free, but as it progresses there may be an associated cost

When you place your piece on a space without a cost, take the effect, then place an unused Alter Tile of your choice next to it, this will then become the cost to use this space later on

The effects are as follows

Take any two Favour tokens

Score 5 points

Take a Rune Tile plus a Favour token matching the Alter Tile colour

Score a point for each token you have which matches the Alter Tile

Block two card spaces with the neutral pieces, then gain a Favour token matching the Alter tile

Gain 3 Favour tokens matching the Alter Tile

Get the two Favour tokens set aside during setup

Play a Rune Tile

In addition to playing to either a Card or the Great Tree, you can also play Rune tiles

Some give you Favour tokens of an indicated colour

Some let you move a piece from any other card to an unoccupied space on the card of the matching colour

Some let you move a piece from an indicated card to an unoccupied space on any other card

Some let you play on an occupied space, so long as it isn't yourself who occupy it already

End of Season

Once everyone has placed all their pieces, the season comes to an end

Check each of the cards to see if they are complete or incomplete, a card is complete if a piece was placed on every space available

For Complete cards, each player present scores a point for each Favour token they hold which matches the card's colour, then the players retrieve their pieces and the card is replaced with a new one of the colour shown in the top right corner (The same colour as the card itself)

For Incomplete cards, no scoring occurs, all pieces are returned, and the card is replaced with a new one of the colour shown in the lower right corner (this will be different to the current colour)

After which, players gain a new piece from the next season space (in 4 players the first end of season gives no new pieces)

Finally, the player with the fewest points draws 2 Start cards and picks one to use for the new round and then they become the first player
