- Funding Start
- 5. Juni 2023
Zu Stroganov kommt eine Erweiterung mit vier neuen Modulen sowie die Gelegenheit, eine "Big Box" zu ordern, die dann auch die später verbesserten Materialien des Grundspiels noch einmal enthält, da nicht jeder Zugriff auf einen Reprint von Spielplan und Karten hatte. Die Fehler der Vergangenheit (Qualitätsabstriche durch Produktionswechsel während der Logistikkrise) bedauert man und will sie nicht wiederholen. Mehr Details sollen in der Kampagne folgen, die am 5. Juni startet.
Module 1: Chipmunks
Chipmunks are bycatch that is not that valuable. The value of chipmunk fur is only 1 because there is little demand for it. However, there is a trader, who travels further and further across the landscape during the game, who does take an interest in chipmunk furs and is willing to give points and coins for them, which can still make them lucrative.
Module 2: Hunting PlanThe tsar is a demanding person. He wants the right furs, and as soon as possible. If you hunt furs in the right order, you can thereby get a discount for completing tsar wishes. With the hunting plan marker, you keep track of how much discount you are entitled to.
Module 3: New landscape tilesThere are 4 new A landscape tiles and 4 new B landscape tiles, with beautiful new artwork by Maciej Janik. The A tiles are for the first half of the game and are wild tiles that count for any type of terrain. In addition, they offer permanent skills that help you during the game.
The B-tiles for the second half of the game offer a 5th type of terrain for your set collection. And they allow you to trade the banners you collected during the game for something useful as the end of the game approaches. You do this when you purchase the terrain tile and during each remaining summer.
Module 4: DiplomacyLast but not least, we have the Diplomacy module. At the beginning of the game, one terrain type becomes a special terrain where diplomacy with locals can take place. Each time you land on such a terrain, you can donate fur to the locals in exchange for steps on the diplomacy track. This earns you one-time rewards and VP during each winter phase, depending on your position relative to the player who was most successful in his diplomatic relations with the locals. However, the more diplomacy takes place in a particular area, the more expensive it becomes to buy the diplomacy terrain tile there.
