Some random questions
-
Colony Outpost - What can I do with the Colony Outpost’s gold?
You can use the gold for actions that either require the possession of gold or for which you have to pay gold. However, you are not allowed to move it around within your own principality.
-
Influence Card – Action “Deserter” - May I play a Deserter or an expansion card against my own Domains (which often would make a lot of sense during the final phase)?
No.
-
Town Hall - If I have a Town Hall, can I select various cards per turn?
With each card you draw, you can decide again - independently from your previous decision - whether you want to draw the card blindly or use the function of the Town Hall and, in each case, pay 1 resource for it.
-
The menus are only partially displayed.
This problem occurs only rarely and seems to be rooted in an incompatibility between the graphics card and Java. Unfortunately, we were not able to reproduce this problem on our test systems; however, the following solutions - independently of each other - helped affected users remedy the issue:
- Update the graphics card driver. You can obtain the latest driver versions on your graphics card manufacturer’s website.
- Update the Java version to 1.6_13 (or newer). You can obtain the latest Java version at www.java.com.
- Change the screen display to 16 bit. In Windows, you can change this setting as follows:
- Right-click on the desktop.
- Select “Graphics Properties.”
- Under “Display Settings,” set the color quality to 16 bit.
-
Buildings - According to the game instructions, all buildings must be placed in such a way that the white arrows point to the compass rose. But the buildings covering six squares do not have a white arrow. May I place them in any direction?
All buildings must be placed so that their roofs point upwards.
-
General Questions - Do I have to fill the top line on my wish list first, before I can satisfy the wishes specified in the lines below?
No, each column can be filled from top to bottom, independently of the other columns.
-
Sigmund the Sea Hero - Can I play Sigmund if there is no Fleet in the discard pile?

-
Wizards Alliance - Can I build a Wizards Alliance without having my own Citadel?
