The Red Cathedral: Contractors Expansion (ENG)

Description

The construction of St. Basil's Cathedral is progressing steadily. The time has come to seek out the best specialists from each guild and apply their skills and knowledge to turn this monument into something that will amaze even the Tsar. It is necessary to send contractors to the farthest corners of Russia to stand out from the competition and achieve victory.

Contractors is the first expansion of The Red Cathedral, the hit game from Shei Santos and Isra Cendrero in which players build Moscow's St. Basil's Cathedral and compete to make the most memorable contribution and win the Tsar's favor. The expansion is also illustrated by Pedro Soto and Chema Román, two artists inspired by the work of Ivan Bilbin, the Russian artist known for his majestic representation of Slavic folklore in his works. The Red Cathedral stands out among recent games for its original rondel mechanism and has captured the hearts of thousands of players around the world.

The expansion comes in a box with almost as much content as the original game and takes the experience to another dimension. In Contractors we find 10 new guilds that can be combined with those from the base game, 6 additional blueprint cards and a new card for solo mode. Many of these new guilds use the Contractors module, which includes a new board with a map of Russia. You will send the contractors throughout Russia to recruit the talent of the country's best specialists and craftsmen to help build the cathedral.

As in the original game, each of these guilds contain 3 different maps, one of which can be included in the game per guild, meaning Contractors offers 30 new ways to play The Red Cathedral. Some other highlights include a black die that can be used in addition to the 5 existing dice to obtain resources, diamonds that serve as a wild-card form of resource, and the contractors, which are Kozak meeples that add an element of worker placement to the add game.
