Viscounts of the West Kingdom: Courier

About this expansion

Viscounts of the West Kingdom: Courier is a 2021 addition for 1–4 players, with a play time of 90 minutes. Released during the spielbox English Edition Kickstarter, this additional Townsfolk card gives players a choice between two useful deck-management effects.

When the Courier’s ability is resolved, choose one of two options. The first lets you shuffle your discards back into your Draw Pile, helping return those cards to circulation. To use this option, you must have at least one card in your discard pile.

The second option lets you discard two cards from either your hand or your Draw Pile. If you have no Draw Pile, you may first shuffle your discards and then discard the required cards from it.

• Choose between recycling your discard pile or discarding two cards.
• Discard from your hand or Draw Pile when using the second option.
• Shuffle your discards if you have no Draw Pile.

The Courier adds a flexible choice to the Townsfolk cards in Viscounts of the West Kingdom. Its two abilities address different card situations, allowing the same card to support either a refreshed Draw Pile or deliberate discarding.

As an additional card released through the Kickstarter, the Courier is a focused promotional addition for players using the relevant English edition content. Its effect is concise, but the choice between recovering discarded cards and removing cards from circulation gives it a distinct role within the game.
