About this expansion

Architects of the West Kingdom: Garphill Games 5-Year Anniversary Promo Cards is a 2019 card expansion for 1–5 players, with an 80-minute play time. It contains eight cards from the Garphill Games 5-Year Anniversary Promo Pack that expand Architects of the West Kingdom.

This special web-exclusive promo set adds five new Apprentice cards: two Watchmen, two Defenders, and one Abbot. Each introduces a focused effect that can influence key actions, from gaining Virtue to managing Workers and reducing Silver costs.

  • Abbot: Gain 1 Virtue when taking the King’s Storehouse action.
  • Watchman: Pay 1 less Silver, not Tax, when using the Guardhouse to release Workers from other players’ boards or pay off Debt.
  • Defender: When taking the Town Centre action, you may release 2 of your Workers from the Prison.

The pack also includes three new Viking Building cards: Viking Market Hall, Viking Church, and Viking Boat House. These buildings provide effects tied to Gold, Cathedral construction, Virtue, and Wood.

  • Viking Market Hall: The controlling player immediately gains 3 Gold.
  • Viking Church: At game end, the controlling player gains 1 VP for each level of work done advancing construction on the Cathedral.
  • Viking Boat House: The controlling player may immediately lose 1 Virtue to gain 3 Wood.

With distinct Apprentice abilities and Viking Building effects, these promo cards offer additional card options for Architects of the West Kingdom while preserving the game’s familiar action-focused framework.
