Setting up the game
For a “Classic” game, use the 11 Public Service tiles of this expansion marked with a “Classic” background. For an “Expert” game, use the 13 Public Service tiles of this expansion marked with an “Expert” background.
Shuffle the appropriate Public Service tiles from the expansion and form a face down stack next to the Construction Site. Then, follow the standard set-up as described in the base game rules.
At the beginning of the game, draw and reveal the first 4 tiles from the Public Service stack and place them face up next to the Construction Site.
During the game, when players pick a standard Public Service tile from the Construction Site, they may:
■ either place that standard Public Service tile in their city and discard one of the visible Public Service tiles (among those next to the Construction Site);
■ or discard that standard Public Service tile and place one of the visible Public Service tiles (among those next to the Construction Site) in their city.

Congress Center

check the corresponding line on
your Helper to know how many VPs
you score per Office Tower, depend-
ing on its number of floors.
The Congress Center is not an Office

Office Towers cannot exceed the
final line of the table (5 adjacent
Office Towers).
