Forget the complexities of heavy games; here the idea is simple: railroad tracks. With this expansion, you gain the ability to build railways across the board, connecting your fiefdoms in a brand-new way. It is not just for show; the track system introduces the title of 'Sheriff.' Whoever manages to expand their railway network more than their rivals takes this position, which grants an important strategic advantage in turn order and, of course, precious points that can decide who takes the crown of supreme bunny at the end of the game. The gameplay experience maintains its original charm but injects a bit more interaction and competition for space. If you previously had to keep an eye on what your opponents were drafting, now you need to monitor who is investing more in the railway network. It is a small component, but it changes the pace of the game enough for those who have played dozens of times to feel a sense of renewal. It is the perfect choice for that group that wants to level up the base game without having to learn a new 20-page rulebook. The components integrate perfectly into the board you already know, maintaining the cute aesthetic and fluid gameplay. If you enjoy optimizing your territory and love that back-and-forth for strategic positions, this expansion is an almost mandatory addition to your collection. Prepare the tracks, organize your bunnies, and ensure your railway network is the most influential in the kingdom before your friends seize power! ## FAQ ### Do I need the base game to play?
