Imhotep Eine neue Dynastie

New construction projects

 

Stones must be delivered for building pyramids; as a builder you try to achieve an optimum score with those deliveries. In your turn you can either acquire stones – 3 stones from the quarry for your stock, place a stone on a boat – on any free spot on a boat still at anchor; move a boat – it must be loaded with the minimum amount and the target location must be free, stones are then unloaded in order of their placement on the boat; or play market card. When all boats have been moved and unloaded, you score temples for stones visible from the top. After six such rounds you score burial chamber, obelisks and market cards and win with most points.

Eine Neue Dynastie introduces new construction projects; you can use new supplements from the market and receive rewards from the gods for correct predictions of building plans, but you can also be penalized for failure. New double-sided location boards expand the possible boards for Market, Pyramid, Temple, Burial Chamber and Obelisk to four boards for each location, which you can use in any combination of your choice; they introduce new features and rules like chariots in the Temple Arena or an Imhotep pawn in the Burial Chamber. 14 new Market cards expand the supply, red instant cards are displayed openly. Seven God Prophecies are a separate module which can include or not. Three prophecies are on display, and you can, twice in the game, use a scarab to predict that you will meet one of them.

Eine Neue Dynastie provides attractive and well-working supplements for Imhotep, the many new rules and features of the location boards offer high replay value-
