About this expansion
Glenn Drover’s Empires: Age of Discovery – Plague Promo is a set of three Capital Buildings for 2–6 players, with a play time of 120 minutes. Designed to be added to the tile mix, this promo gives games greater variety from one play to the next.
Each building belongs to one of the game’s three ages and introduces a distinct effect. The Age 1 building affects discoveries, while the Age 2 and Age 3 buildings focus on colonies and their populations.
- Age 1 Plague Building: The player succeeds on all discoveries in Age 1.
- Age 2 Plague Building: Any colony with 3 or more population of a single color is reduced by one colonist.
- Age 3 Plague Building: The player chooses one opponent colony and reduces it by 3 colonists.
These three Plague Capital Buildings offer different effects depending on when they enter play, spanning discoveries in the first age and colony reductions in the later ages. Together, they expand the available building mix without changing the number of tiles in the set.
Glenn Drover’s Empires: Age of Discovery – Plague Promo is compatible only with the older Age of Empires III version of the game. The deluxe edition already includes these tiles, so this promo is intended for that older version rather than the deluxe edition.
The promo tiles also differ physically from the deluxe tiles: the deluxe version’s tiles are larger, and their colors and material are different. Check your edition before adding this three-building expansion to your game.
