Istanbul: Pegasus Depot Mini Expansion

About this expansion

Istanbul: Pegasus Depot Mini Expansion is a 2016 expansion for 2–5 players with a listed play time of 60 minutes. It was contained in the Brettspiel Adventskalender 2016 as Day 18.

Pegasus Depot replaces the Post Office. During setup, place one mail indicator on each of the dice symbols 4, 5, and 6; the fourth mail indicator is not used.

During play, roll two dice and check how many of the rolled numbers are covered by mail indicators. The positions of the indicators then change according to the result:

• If both rolled numbers are covered, do not move any mail indicators.
• If only one rolled number is covered, move one mail indicator so that both rolled numbers are covered.
• If neither rolled number is covered, move two mail indicators so that both numbers are covered.
• If you roll doubles and that number is not covered, move only one mail indicator onto that number.

After resolving the indicator movement, take the resources printed next to the three uncovered numbers. If 6 is uncovered, you may choose one of the three depicted resources. Coffee and letters are available only when their respective expansions are also in use.

This compact rules change makes the dice results directly determine which numbers remain uncovered and which resources are available. With its shifting indicators and defined responses to covered, partially covered, uncovered, and duplicate rolls, Istanbul: Pegasus Depot Mini Expansion offers a focused alternative to the Post Office location.
