Caylus Magna Carta Board Game + Compartment Box

The general theme and mechanics of Caylus Magna Carta are similar to the Caylus board game. However, there is no board or score track and the tactical nuts and bolts of the game are somewhat different. In terms of components, the game consists of cards, money, worker pawns, resource markers, the provost, and castle building stones. Each player has a set of identical cards, which are shuffled and used as a face-down draw deck. Players start with an opening random draw of cards, and on his turn a player can either: - extend the road by building a new building - pay 1 to draw a new building card - pay 1 to discard his hand and draw a fresh hand (with the discard deck being shuffled for a new draw deck once the draw deck is exhausted) - pay 1 to place a worker on one of the existing building cards build one of the common prestige building cards (some of which are placed at the beginning of the game as part of the setup) or - pass Once everyone has passed, the cards are resolved up to the provost (which can be moved in passing order by paying money). 2008 JoTa Best Card Game Nominee 2007 Tric Trac Nominee 2007 Golden Geek Best Gamer's Board Game Nominee 2007 Golden Geek Best Card Game Winner 2007 Golden Geek Best Card Game Nominee 2007 Fairplay À la carte Winner
