Scythe: Promo Pack #7 – Encounter Card 38

About this expansion

Scythe: Promo Pack #7 – Encounter Card 38 is a promotional encounter card for 1–5 players, with a listed play time of 115 minutes. Released in 2016, it adds Encounter Card #38 for use in the game.

This promo card was given out during the 2016 Watch It Played Indiegogo campaign. Its illustration shows a mech next to a man fishing in a lake, setting the scene for a choice with three distinct outcomes.

When you encounter the card, select one of the following options:

• Quietly watch the fisherman from across the lake: Gain 2 popularity.
• Broker a deal for the old mech: Pay $4 to deploy 1 mech.
• Smile as you push the mech into the lake: Pay 2 popularity to gain 4 food.

Each option presents a different exchange. You can gain popularity without paying a resource, spend money to deploy a mech, or trade popularity for a larger food gain.

Scythe: Promo Pack #7 – Encounter Card 38 gives the game an additional encounter centered on the fisherman and the old mech. Whether you choose to observe quietly, negotiate, or push the mech into the lake, the card offers three clearly defined possibilities for resolving this unusual lakeside moment.
