Terra Mystica: Feuer & Eis

Yetis, Ice maidens and Shapeshifters

 

The people of Terra Mystica are bound to a certain type of terrain; they can set up buildings only in their specific kind of landscape. Should other people build or expand buildings in the neighborhood, your power increases. Six rounds comprise Income, Actins and Bonus for Cults with preparations for the next round. You score buildings, terraforming, types of buildings, bonuses, improvements in shipping and for city founding and people traits as well as majorities at the end of the game.

With the expansion the challenge gets even bigger, because we are confronted with volcanoes or frost across whole regions and six new factions: Yetis are Masters of Power, Ice Maidens adore temples, Acolytes focus on their cults and Dragonlords create volcanoes. The factions of Shapeshifters and Riverwalkers do not adhere to the rule of one faction, one landscape and choose any available starting landscape or home landscape at the start of the game. The terrains that have been transformed into Ice or Volcanoes by Ice Maidens, Yetis, Acolytes or Dragonlords cannot be transformed again, the transformation is permanent. There is a new board which can be used instead of the board from the core game. For scoring there are four new final scoring tiles, you draw one of them for a game and use in in addition to the territory scorings.

There are other new options, too, Turn order by passing and Faction Auction, in which you draw factions at the start of the game and put them up for auction.

Full marks and full praise for a fantastic gaming experience from an excellent expansion, a must for everyone who knows, owns and loves the core game.
