About this expansion

Scythe: Promo Pack #11 – Encounter Card 39 is a promotional encounter card for 1–5 players in a 115-minute game, released in 2017.

Given out during The Game Boy Geek Kickstarter campaign, this promo adds a new Encounter Card (#39) that you can use in the game. Its artwork shows mechs wandering into a meadow with cows and an electric line, creating an unusual situation with several possible responses.

When the encounter appears, choose the option that best suits your needs. Each choice offers a different exchange involving food, popularity, money, or power:

  • Steer the mechs away from the electric lines: Gain 2 food and 1 popularity.
  • Get awkward cow-milking lessons from the farmers: Pay $2 to gain 4 food.
  • Siphon electricity to turbocharge your armament: Pay 2 popularity to gain 5 power.

These three outcomes make Encounter Card 39 a compact moment of decision-making. You can take a modest combination of food and popularity, spend money for a larger food gain, or trade popularity for a substantial power increase.

Scythe: Promo Pack #11 – Encounter Card 39 is a focused addition for players who want to include this specific promotional encounter in their game. With its distinctive meadow setting and clearly differentiated rewards, the card gives the encounter deck another memorable situation to resolve.
