Temporary Caution

Frequently Asked Questions

Definitions

• When counting how many Invaders are in a land, are you counting pieces? Or do Towns count as 2 and Cities as 3?
  You're counting pieces.

  "Invader" in the Glossary is defined as "A City, Town, or Explorer", so a land with three Towns and a City has four Invaders in it.

  (A few effects instead key off of "N Health worth of Invaders", and in those cases Towns and Cities generally count for 2 and 3, respectively.)

  Similarly if checking if Dahan "outnumber" Invaders, you are counting physical pieces.

General Play

• When instructed to count multiple piece types separated by slashes (e.g., "the fewest Towns/Cities"), do players choose which piece type to count?
  No. Count all pieces that are at least one of the types on the list. So in the example, if there are 2 Towns and 1 City in the land, the total for that land is 3 Towns/Cities. In the unlikely case that a piece is on the list multiple ways, it only gets counted once.
