About the game
Promo from Board&Dice when you pre-ordered the game at their website. Content: four level 2 corner buildings and two level 3. Set-up: Mix in with the others.

Contrary to the normal rules, these must be built in order: the level 2 corner Building may be placed only over level 1, and level 3 over level 2. Also, you must use the depicted citizens to do it, putting them in their respective tracks as per normal rules. Place your marker on top of the new Building and score Victory Points, but you do not get any extra reward or penalty for constructing them.
