About this expansion

Orléans: Promo Ortskarten N°2 is a set of three promotional tiles for 2–4 players, designed for the Orléans base game or deluxe edition. Released in 2018, it supports the strategic gameplay of a session lasting about 90 minutes.

This collection adds the Opera, Cathedral, and Statue tiles. Each one introduces a distinct rule that can influence development, bonuses, or how newly gained Followers are managed.

  • Opera: This tile can only be used when there are no Scholars left in the supply. Advance your marker one step along the Scholars Track and receive the appropriate bonus. If your marker is already on the track’s final space, receive the bonus from that final space instead.
  • Cathedral: Your Development Status is treated as the number shown by the star on your Development Track plus one. This affects other Place Tiles, including the Hospital, Events such as Income, and end-of-game scoring.
  • Statue: Every new Follower gained in Phase 5 may be placed directly into your Market instead of your bag.

The Opera rewards progress when the Scholar supply has been exhausted, while the Cathedral modifies how your Development Status is counted across several parts of the game. The Statue provides a different kind of flexibility by changing where newly gained Followers are placed.

Use these three tiles to add extra variety to Orléans without replacing the core game system. Orléans: Promo Ortskarten N°2 is a compact way to introduce additional choices and effects to games played with either the base or deluxe edition.
