About this expansion

Edo Promo #3: Special Authorization Cards 2 is a 2012 promo expansion for Edo, designed for 2–4 players with a playing time of about 60 minutes.

This is the third non-exclusive Kickstarter promo expansion for Edo. It introduces new authorization cards that provide two additional actions connected to the game’s wood and stone resources.

The featured actions let players obtain wood and stone independently of the resource spaces shown on the plan. Rather than relying only on those spaces, players can use the authorization cards to access these materials through a separate option.

  • Two authorization-card actions
  • Independent access to wood
  • Independent access to stone
  • A higher expense per unit in exchange for reliability

This flexibility supports more reliable planning. When the relevant resource spaces on the plan do not provide the desired option, the new cards offer another way to obtain wood or stone, though each unit comes at a higher expense.

The expansion therefore adds a clear trade-off to Edo: players can plan with greater certainty, but must pay more per unit for that dependable access. Its focus is narrow and specific, centering on the resource-gathering alternatives provided by the new authorization cards.

As a non-exclusive Kickstarter promo, Edo Promo #3: Special Authorization Cards 2 is a compact addition for players seeking the particular benefits of independent wood and stone acquisition. It preserves the connection to Edo’s existing plan while introducing two distinct authorization-based options.
