Colonies

The colony at Cochin can produce one of any spice. The colony at Calicut can produce 2 of any spice. The colony at Quilon can produce one of a pair of spices. The colony at Madras can produce 2 of a pair of spices. The possible spice pairs for Quilon and Madras are below.

Expedition Cards

Expedition cards have three purposes in the game. They can be played to have a specific effect, either alone or in accordance with a player action. They can be drawn as part of a colonization attempt or to generate a random number. Or they can add to scoring at the end of the game. In the case of the first type, the uses fall into two categories: those not related to a specific player action, and those that are. The expedition cards that are not related to a specific action are:

• Ships: Allows the player to take 2 ships
• Colonists: Allows the player to take 2 colonists
• Ducats: Allows the player to take 5 ducats
• Harvest: Allows the player to take 2 spice sacks of his choice and to place them on the apprpriate empty spaces on this plantations/colonies
• Sell: Allows the player to trade any number of spice sacks for 3 ducats each

The expedition cards that are related to a specific action are:

• Modified Harvest: During a harvest action, the player may take a mixture of ships, spices, and colonists
• Enhanced Found Colony: During a found colony action, the player may draw a third expedition card to add to his recruiting total
• Progress by Ship: During a progress action, the player may progress using only ships, no spice is necessary
• Progress by Spice: During a progress action, the player may progress using only spice, no ships are necessary
• Progress by Ducats: During a progress action, the player may progress by paying ducats at the rate of 6 ducats per level (i.e. 6 ducats to go from 1 to 2, 12 to go from 2 to 3, 18 to go from 3 to 4, and 24 to go from 4 to 5). No ships or spice are necessary

There are 3 cards of each type in the deck, and each triplet contains a card with a colonist value of 1, 2, and 3.

There are 5 scoring symbols: Tiger, Fish, Palm, Shell, and Statue, and six of each type are available.
