About the game
A mini-expansion consisting of an additional face card, the Outlaw, an Outlaw meeple, and four new, optional Joker cards. As face cards, Outlaws rank above 10 and below Jack. When an Outlaw is played while Prospecting, players place the Outlaw meeple on any tile or, if already in play, move the Outlaw to a new tile. At game end, the tile containing the Outlaw meeple scores only half its value in gold. Each Outlaw card features an illustration based on historic outlaws of the California Gold Rush, chosen by backers of the Kickstarter Project. These include: Joaquin Murrieta, Eleanor Dumont, Black Bart, and Jack Powers. Illustrations for the Jokers were likewise selected by backers and include depictions of a card shark and a town drunk. The mini expansion is packaged separately from the base game and will be available to non-Kickstarter backers.
