Description

This first expansion for Cascadia adds several unique components, increases the player count to 6 and includes a new module that features landmark scoring for the unique geographical features found within the five habitat types in the game. Here are the highlights of new components:

  1. There are five additional and different starting habitat tiles to add variety and to accommodate more players.
  2. 45 additional and unique habitat tiles for more players and variety of choice.
  3. Although there are still five different types of wildlife, 35 tokens are added for higher player counts.
  4. 15 additional wildlife scoring cards are included to add three new scoring options to each type of wildlife.
  5. Landmark Module Components (30 Landmark tokens and 60 Unique score cards) for optional gameplay as well as scoring instructions.
  6. New Rulebook with the Landmark Module Gameplay instructions as well as optional rules for a quicker game when 6 people play, Landmarks Scenarios and Achievements, Explanations for each new wildlife scoring, solo mode and additional play variants.
  7. New scorepads that include scoring options when using the Landmarks module.
  8. About the new Landmarks Module: The gameplay setup now provides each player with a starting keystone habitat tile as well as their usual starting tile. Landmark tokens and score cards are placed on display based on player count. Once a player has positioned the fifth of any contiguous habitat type, they have the option to place a landmark token that matches that habitat type on the fifth tile they placed. After that, the player has a choice of a bonus card affiliated with that token type. These cards provide several types of scoring. Some are additional game-end points and others are based on criteria that surrounds habitat or wildlife configurations placed by that player. Some examples of this scoring are: 4 added points for 4 Salmon placed on Prairie Habitat tiles or scoring the combined contiguous numbers of a specific habitat type placed in the game.

    This expansion promises to be a welcome addition for fans of Cascadia, which is loved by my family and has a permanent place in our game rotation. ~ Marsha
