Sheriff of Nottingham: Gambler’s Risk

About this expansion

Sheriff of Nottingham: Gambler’s Risk is a 2014 promo card pack for 3–5 players, associated with a 60-minute game. It contains a special card for each player color, giving every player a Gambler’s Risk at the start of the game.

The card creates a clearly defined decision during the inspection phase. Before completing a deal, a player may remove their Gambler’s Risk from play. If the merchant bag involved in that deal is inspected, the penalty paid on that bag is doubled.

Because the card must be removed before the deal is completed, its use depends on timing. Players choose whether to commit the effect ahead of the inspection outcome, making the card’s single-use ability easy to understand while adding an important choice to the relevant phase.

• One promo card in each player color
• Each player starts with a Gambler’s Risk
• Used during the inspection phase
• Removed from play before completing a deal
• Doubles the penalty if the merchant bag is inspected

Sheriff of Nottingham: Gambler’s Risk focuses on one sharp effect: a player can risk using the card to increase the penalty on an inspected merchant bag. The result is a compact promotional addition built around timing, inspection, and the possibility of a doubled penalty.
