The Great Heartland Hauling Co.: Badlands

About this expansion

The Great Heartland Hauling Co.: Badlands is a promotional expansion for five-player games of The Great Heartland Hauling Co., with a listed play time of 45 minutes and a 2013 release year.

Badlands adds two special location cards: Serenity and Markham. Unlike standard locations described in the base game, these locations provide no initial products while featuring high demands for three products.

The two Badlands locations are placed on the outskirts of the playing area. They are only playable with five players, making this expansion specifically suited to a full five-player session and requiring the included fifth set of player pieces.

• 2 Badlands location cards: Serenity and Markham
• 1 wooden tracking cube
• 1 purple big rig wooden figure
• 1 purple two-part player score card
• 1 player aide card

By introducing locations with no initial products and strong demands, Badlands adds a distinct destination option to the five-player format. Its placement on the outer edge of the playing area also gives the expansion a clearly defined position within the game setup.

The Great Heartland Hauling Co.: Badlands was initially distributed as a promotional expansion to Kickstarter backers of the main game. It was later distributed by Dice Hate Me Games at conventions and similar venues, making it a compact addition for players seeking the specific components and locations included in this release.
