6 Sun Set action cards, that have more focus on the Voyage action.
The New Edition of Newton & Great Discoveries already include many promos, but not this one.
This Newton add-on provides 6 new Action cards (+1 rule card). Each player starts with one of these cards (they are assigned through a draft during setup): these are all travel actions, linked to a specific city on the map. Whoever plays such cards gets a very interesting power, but only if have visited the showed city (so providing a mid-term game objective).
Rules :
SETUP: Shuffle the Sun Set cards, then draw a number equal to the player count + 1 and place them face up on the table. Following the reverse turn order, each player chooses 1 card and place it in their hand together with their Starting Action cards. Place the remaining cards back in the box.
GAMEPLAY: The new cards are used normally to perform a Travel action. In addition, if you have already a Travel cube on the indicated University - City - Ancient Land, you will get the indicated bonus effect. If you don't have the cube there, you only perform the main action without the bonus.
(Sun Set cards are considered starting action cards for the objectives.)
