Ra

 

Sun stones of varying values are used to win auctions to acquire many and valuable tiles, representing varying types of fame and honor. If Ra is uncovered or called, an auction is resolved; if you win, you take the row of tiles. pay the sun you bid into the middle and take the sun there from the previous bid. At the end of an epoch your achievements are scored and you win fame points. Buildings, for instance, are only scored after Epoch III, pharaohs in each round, and at the end of Epoch III, your open and face-down suns count, too. You win after three rounds with most points.
