This mini expansion brings Patron Cards into the game
Those cards have several uses and players may decide which of them they want to use. All of the uses are described in detail below.
Each Patron Card belongs to the specific Experiment board. In the base game those Experiments are distinguished by letters only. Now, on every Patron card you can see the occupation of each Patron associated with the specific Experiment along with their description and image depicting them. From now on, Experiments will be referred to using names of their Patrons introduced by this mini expansion:
- Experiment A -> Banker
- Experiment B -> Industry Captain
- Experiment C -> Inventor
- Experiment D -> Junior Minister
- Experiment E -> Councillor (Requires the Court of Progress board)
- Experiment F -> Engineer
