Zombie Apocalypse seems like a really cool card.  But if you bring a zombie with you, do you move the zombie first and pay $2, or do you move first, and not pay $2?  Seems like it would play completely differently depending on your interpretation.

The zombie moves with you before you visit the zone, so you lose $2.

You always move before you visit. So if you are on ZA, and on your turn you move to another zone, you will bring a Zombie token with you. And then, when you visit that zone (which happens immediately after moving there), you lose .

Well possibly it's an oversight. But more likely Donald just didn't feel that I'd done much? Looks like I only reported three test games. So, seems reasonable to me that I didn't make the credits.

Just played my first game with the expansion! 2-player against my housemate. I clinched the win by playing a Gizmo on Pilgrims, scoring a 16/7 card and a 12/6 card, using Ambassador's ability to spend $4 to advance a crown for each Pilgrims play and the Gizmo play. At first I thought I was $2 short, but then I looked over and had $2 on my Beggar. Felt good to have exactly enough money to win.

Beggar was also great for nabbing a Gizmo in the first place. I had no money of my own, so nothing for the Zombies to take. But I could use the $2 on my Beggar to buy the Gizmo.

Yes, Alayna said "Pope Hat, that should be Papal Tiara" (when working on the main set) but I never printed out a new copy for the prototype and got the name wrong in the expansion rulebook.

Haha cool. So maybe the same like "Amazonian Europe" (which is mentioned in the zone setup examples), which should rather be "Empire of the Amazons"? ;)

Apparently I did not proofread that rulebook sufficiently.

Also, I see the rules for Robotic Utopia say: "you gain (crown) and advance a ". But that's all I can find ;)

I played a handful of games last night.  I had some fun with the Byzantine Empire.  I wasn't really sure how to balance the profits with the fact that I don't really want that many cards--and it didn't help that I drew both Meet Younger Selfs.  At the end, I played Tactician, and then scored 17 crowns at once with a Visionary.

I noticed that Exodus lets you end the game on a tie, if multiple players have 10 crowns on Time IV and then Exodus becomes unreal.  Although, a careful reading of the instructions suggests that each player checks only their own victory condition at the end of their turn.

I had a similar thing with Gladiator's Gladius a couple days ago. Used both copies of it while ruling 3 Times. I found the new "secret" cards help some; because they give you another use for extra cards that don't require a separate turn to use.

Right. Pretty sure it never could matter until the expansion, but you can only win on your turn.

I thought Exodus's extra-crown clause was true regardless of whether Exodus was currently real. I could easily be mistaken.

It doesn't do anything unless it's real.

Well that certainly makes the zone more interesting.

More misadventures:  My boyfriend rules Capitalist Utopia, ruling all times.  So he goes to Earth United (via Anubis Statuette) and plays Cutthroat's Cutlass twice, drawing 8 cards.  My response?  Go to Earth United, and now everyone gets to play Kill Your Grandfather.

So that's also the case with Capitalist Utopia? I can't find a statement in the rulebook like this. :(

Is Beggar's money considered mine? If I run around for a while without gaining any money, does beggar keep piling up, or does he stop once he hits $4?


I assumed no, and that it can build up, but wasn't totally confident it was correct.

It can build up past $4. It's not "your $."

I just played a game vs. a bot on LuciferousPeridot's implementation. You know what's fun? Ruling the Tibetan Empire and having a Hacker (and two Explorers). Draw 2 cards (getting $4), then I may play a card without getting $. No, I'd rather score a card without getting $, thanks!
