Choose from a variety of new capital city mats, a new advancement track featuring new types of cards and tiles, plus
more civilizations, tapestry cards, tech cards, and landmark cards in this second expansion for Tapestry.

INITIAL SETUP
Shuffle the new civilization mats, tapestry
cards, and tech cards into the original
components. If you have another expansion,
shuffle all landmark cards together as well.
Do not shuffle in the new advanced capital
city mats.
When playing future games of Tapestry,
if you decide not to include the arts track
and inspiration tiles, you don’t need to
separate any other components. Instead, if a
tapestry card, tech card,
or civilization mat is
drawn that refers to the
arts track, immediately
discard it and draw
another. The tapestry
cards unique to the arts
track are marked with a
special symbol () to
help you identify them.

RELENTLESS
The Relentless are always pushing for improvement, rushing
forward without pause.
At the end of each of your income and advancement turns, if you
gained at least one building (income or landmark) during that
turn, place a player token on this civilization mat.
At the end of each of your
advancement turns, if you
did not gain at least one
building on that turn, remove
all player tokens from this
mat, and gain rewards based
on the following chart
(“/” means “or”):
1 token: 1
2 tokens: 3 +
3 tokens: 6 +/
4 tokens: 10 +//
5+ tokens: 15 +///

GAMBLERS
The Gamblers know when to hold ‘em and know when to fold ‘em.
If you start the game with this civilization, at the end of your
first income turn reveal 3 tapestry cards. Play one with a “when
played” ability on top of Maker of Fire, resolve the ability, and
discard the other revealed cards. If you reveal no valid cards,
add 1 of the revealed cards to your hand and discard the rest.
At the beginning of your income turns (2-4), reveal 3 tapestry
cards. Play one with a “when played” ability on top of the current
era, resolve the ability, and discard the other revealed cards. If
you reveal no valid cards, add 1 of the revealed cards to your
hand and discard the rest. Then proceed to play your tapestry
card for this era as normal (on top of it).

URBAN PLANNERS
The Urban Planners want a neat, orderly city. They see a place
for everything and everything in its place.
After players have chosen landmark cards at game start (or
when you gain the Urban Planners), choose an additional card
from the landmark deck. If no landmark cards are available, you
may discard this and draw a different civilization mat.
When you gain a landmark, you may place it on this card. If you
do, you may place it in your capital city on a future turn.
At the end of your final income turn, gain VP according to the
chart below for the largest group of connected landmarks in your
capital city (where each landmark touches at least one other
landmark orthogonally).
1: 1
2: 3
3: 6
4: 10
5: 15
6: 21
7: 28

RENEGADES
The Renegades choose to forge their own path, advancing in ways
that other civilizations cannot and finding shortcuts along the way.
Start with a player token on the start position of the Renegades’ track.
When advancing on a track where you would gain the benefit, you
may ignore its benefit (and bonus, if applicable) to advance on this
track and gain its benefit instead. You still gain applicable landmarks.
The tier you’re advancing into or within must match the tier you are
advancing into on this mat. This is the only way to advance on this
track, and it is not considered an advancement track for other cards,
abilities, achievements, etc.
Reaching the end of this track counts toward the end-of-track
achievement.

COLLECTORS
The collectors proudly display a variety of objects and buildings.
When you gain at least one of the following during an
advancement turn, you may place one of them on this civilization
mat if there isn’t already one of that type here. Then gain .

cards and tiles are kept face down.

SETUP CHANGES
A. Arts Track: When setting up the game board, you
may add the arts track to the table. It is a fifth
advancement track. Next to it, shuffle the deck of
masterpiece cards and reveal 3 cards. Replace the
original d12 science die with the new d20 science
die.
Optional: Place the 3 landmark tokens on their
corresponding spaces on the arts track. These
serve as reminder for which landmarks are still
available on the arts track and compliment the
12 landmark tokens from the Plans & Ploys
expansion on the 4 original tracks.

B. Advanced Capital City Mats: During the civilization mat
step, each player receives a random advanced capital
city mat along with their civilization mats. They may
replace their previously selected capital city mat
(which determines their starting territory) with the
advanced mat if they wish. This selection happens
simultaneously with civilization mat selection, as
some advanced capital cities may work better with
some civilizations than others.
C. During the player tokens step, each player places
1 of their player tokens on the arts track (the other
player tokens join their personal supply).
D. Each player keeps a set of the 4 unique inspiration
tiles within reach, but not on their income mats.
E. Landmark Cards: After selecting the 1st player at the
end of regular setup, the player going last draws
landmark cards equal to the number of players (or
number of players +1 if playing with Plans & Ploys),
selects 1, and passes the others counterclockwise for
the next person to select. Continue until each player
has chosen a landmark card. Each player places the
corresponding landmark miniature on or near their
selected card. If there are remaining landmark cards,
they form the shuffled landmark deck.

Landmark Card Goal: During the game, at the end of a
turn when a player accomplishes the goal on their
landmark card, they gain the landmark miniature
and place it in their capital city.
Setup is now complete!

The arts track is a fifth advancement track. It features a few new icons noted below (others are explained in the next section, Masterpiece Cards).
: Gain an income building of your choice.

from 1 of the 3 face-up cards or the top card of the
deck).

masterpiece cards.

The Architects value an organized and structured capital city.
Each time you complete a district, if all income buildings in it are
identical, gain +1 . There must be at least 1 income building in
that district.
Whenever you score your capital city (), for each complete
row/column where all the income buildings are identical (min. 1),
that row/column is worth 2, not 1.
If you gain this civilization in the middle of the game, you may
immediately swap the positions of 2 income buildings in your
capital city. You may then repeat this up to 2 more times.

MASTERPIECE CARDS
Whenever you gain the Create benefit, gain a
masterpiece card (face-up or from the top of the
deck; immediately replenish a face-up card if
selected) and place it on the Maker of Fire slot on
your income mat. Multiple masterpiece cards can
be placed there in a stack, revealing the benefits at
the top of each card. You can place them elsewhere
if you’d like, but we’ve found that this is the best
position to prevent players from forgetting to gain
masterpiece benefits.
Masterpiece card benefits are gained at the
beginning of each of your income turns. Additionally,
when you gain the Broadcast benefit (), you may
gain the benefit of 1 of your masterpiece cards.
Masterpiece cards feature a few new icons:
and : Gain 1 VP per completed column or
row (respectively) in your capital city. This does not
count as scoring your capital city (e.g., Swamp and
Urban Planners do not trigger their abilities).
: Conquer an adjacent empty territory.
: Upgrade a tech card. This tech card cannot
be upgraded more than once this turn (so if you
upgrade it using this ability, you cannot upgrade it
again during the “Upgrade 1 tech card” step of your
income turn or via your civilization ability).
INSPIRATION TILES
Each player begins with a set of 4 unique inspiration tiles in their
personal supply (1 tile per income track). Whenever you gain the Inspire
benefit (), choose 1 of your unused inspiration tiles and place it on
the corresponding track on your income mat (income buildings remain in
their original positions on the tile).
Each of the 4 unique inspiration tiles matches one income track on your
income mat, upgrading what is already available. You can’t place an
inspiration tile on a track that does not match.
AA_Tap_MasterpieceCards_r2.indd 3 AA_Tap_MasterpieceCards_r2.indd 3 3/3/21 10:11 PM 3/3/21 10:11 PM
NEW TECH CARDS
These new tech cards are designed to be shuffled in
with the others.
Among these is a new type of tech card that wants a
landmark to be placed on the tech card itself. If there
is no landmark on this type of tech card, whenever
you gain a landmark, instead of placing the landmark
on your capital city, you may place it in the tech card
(size doesn’t matter) to instantly upgrade it once.
The landmark remains on the card for the entire
game (unless you discard the tech card, in which
case the landmark on it is also discarded). If you
have two such cards, having a landmark on one of
them is not sufficient to upgrade both.
: This card’s prerequisite requires it to have a
landmark on it.
: Upgrade 1 tech card twice or 2 tech cards once
each, ignoring prerequisites.
NEW TAPESTRY CARDS
These new tapestry cards are designed to be shuffled in with the others
Several of these new cards have continuous abilities that begin their effect
when played and apply throughout the rest of the game, not just the current era.
Continuous abilities cannot be copied (e.g., by cards like Espionage).
Some new tapestry cards feature building plots. Buildings may be placed on these
cards instead of in your capital city, and score as if they were in your capital city.
Landmarks may be placed on these cards, and may extend beyond the card’s
grid. When a tapestry card is covered, discard all buildings and landmarks on it.
Discarded buildings are not scored when looking at the buildings in your capital city. DD
CONTINUOUS:
You may place income buildings and land-
marks on this card. When you do, gain what

Dark Ages: This card from
the core game tells a player
to “Regress once on 3
different advancement tracks
if possible, then advance
three times on the remaining
track. Do not gain any
benefits or bonuses.” When playing with
the arts track, you may choose which one
of the 2 remaining tracks to advance on.
AUTOMATION

If there is no landmark on this card, whenever you gain

NEW
CIVILIZATIONS
These new
civilization mats
are designed to be
shuffled in with the others.
Alchemists: If you roll the arts track
icon while using this core-game
civilization, you may roll again
or stop (only the original 4 track
icons apply to the Alchemists).
RENEGADES
The Renegades choose to forge their own path, advancing in ways
that other civilizations cannot and finding shortcuts along the way.
Start with a player token on the start position of the Renegades’ track.
When advancing on a track where you would gain the benefit, you
may ignore its benefit (and bonus, if applicable) to advance on this
track and gain its benefit instead. You still gain applicable landmarks.
The tier you’re advancing into or within must match the tier you are
advancing into on this mat. This is the only way to advance on this
track, and it is not considered an advancement track for other cards,
abilities, achievements, etc.
Reaching the end of this track counts toward the end-of-track
achievement.

RULES AND CLARIFICATIONS
These apply to all games of Tapestry, with or without this expansion.
• You may not activate the same space on an advancement track more than once

• If you have a set of landmark cards from another expansion, deal out the
number of landmarks cards equal to the number of players +1. After all players
have chosen, the remaining card is shuffled into the landmark card deck.
