The Nobles Expansion

Components: 14 small buildings (2 of each), 1 large building, 20 red "Noble" discs

Setup:

Place the buildings from "the Nobles" expansion above the main game board in the column corresponding to their victory point value. In each column sort them by cost, as follows:

1 VP	2 VP	3 VP	4 VP
	Hunting Lodge
Land Office	Construction Office	Villa
Chapel	Court Supplier	Jeweler	Gardens
Small Indigo Plant, etc	Large Indigo Plant, etc	Tobacco Storage, etc	Guild Hall, etc

The 20 noble discs are placed in the supply with the colonists.

Note: When you play with this expansion, running out of colonists/nobles to fill the colonist’s ship is not a game ending condition anymore (i.e. all colonists are in use, and there’s no need to count the number of colonist discs before play!)

At the beginning of the game and at the end of each Mayor phase, and as long as there are still nobles in the supply, substitute one of the colonists on the colonist’s ship with a noble. This noble can now be taken instead of a colonist during a forthcoming Mayor phase (usually it is picked first).

At the end of the game every noble you own on your board (even if waiting at San Juan) gives you 1 victory point!

The Buildings

Note that many of these buildings have a different effect depending on whether they are occupied by a colonist or a noble.

As usual a building must be occupied for its effect to apply.

Name	Cost	Victory Points	Active Phase	Effect	Notes
Land Office	2	1	Trader	If occupied by a colonist: pay 1 doubloon to draw a face down plantation. If occupied by a noble: discard a plantation to receive 1 doubloon from the bank.	1. If the player also possesses the Forest House, he can choose to put this new tile on the Forest side. 2. If you discard a tile occupied by a colonist or noble, it goes to San Juan.
Chapel	3	1	Craftsman	If occupied by a colonist: receive 1 doubloon from the bank If occupied by a noble: receive 1 Victory point
Hunting Lodge	4	2	Settler	If occupied by a colonist: may discard a plantation tile from the island If occupied by a noble: gain 2 VP if the player with the most empty fields on his island. If tied, no VP gained.	1. The colonist or noble from the discarded tile goes to San Juan. 2. Forests count as a plantation tile, and can be discarded.
Construction Office	5	2	Builder	If occupied by a colonist: gain a discount of 1 doubloon on all buildings in columns 1 through 3 If occupied by a noble: gain a discount of 2 doubloons on any building from column 4	A colonist gives no discount for large buildings and a noble gives no discount for small buildings.
Court Supplier	6	2	Captain	Before loading goods, may discard 1 good per noble to gain 1VP each	Each discarded good must be a different type. Moreover any extra bonus doesn't apply to those goods.
Villa	7	3	Mayor	When his turn comes for the first time during the Mayor phase, the owner of the Villa can take an extra noble from the supply (not from the ship). If there are no more nobles in the supply he can take a colonist instead.
Jeweler	8	3	Craftsman	Every Craftsman phase the owner of the Jeweler receives 1 doubloon from the Bank for every noble in his domain.	The Jeweler counts as a large production building when scoring the Guild Hall bonus.
Gardens	10	4	Game End	At the end of the game, the owner of the Gardens gains 2 VP for each noble he owns instead of the usual 1VP per noble. This is true regardless of where his nobles are: i.e. on buildings, plantations, San Juan, etc.
