About this expansion

Endless Winter: Mammoth Module is an individually packaged module for 1–4 players, with a listed play time of 120 minutes. It adds one Mammoth miniature and a new influence contest to the Terrain board.

Place the Mammoth near the Terrain board at the start of the game. Whenever you gain the ability to move Camps, you may give up 2 Camp movements to move the Mammoth to any empty juncture of the Terrain board. A juncture is a place where three hexes touch, and the Mammoth may occupy one touching the Base Terrain tile, unlike Villages.

During the Eclipse phase, the Mammoth competes for Influence over every hex it touches as if it were another player. Its Influence is equal to the current Round number, creating a changing presence that must be considered as the game progresses.

  • If your Influence on a hex is lower than the Mammoth’s, you do not receive that hex’s benefit or benefits.
  • If your Influence is equal to or greater than the Mammoth’s, and also equal to or greater than any other players’ Influence, you gain the depicted benefit or benefits twice.

This compact addition makes Mammoth placement directly relevant during Eclipse resolution. Choosing when to exchange Camp movements for a new position can determine whether the Mammoth suppresses a benefit or helps define an opportunity to claim it twice.

Endless Winter: Mammoth Module is also compatible with the River & Rafts expansion and Glacier tokens. The module contains 1 Mammoth miniature and instructions.
