About the game
What you do in a play session
Hey gamers, if you've already braved the icy journey of Endless Winter, get ready for another module that's going to heat things up (or rather, the mammoth!). The Mammoth Module is one of those extras that arrives individually packaged, bringing a new piece and some rules that interestingly change the game. The idea is simple: you gain the ability to move your camps, right? Well, now you can trade two of those movements for a strategic shift of your new mammoth friend across the terrain board. And pay attention: it can go to any empty juncture, including those touching the central map tile – something villages don't allow. But the real kicker comes during the Eclipse phase. That's when the mammoth becomes a serious competitor! It vies for influence on every hex it touches, and its strength equals the current round number. If you have less influence than it on a hex, too bad, you lose the benefit. However, if you manage to have more influence than the mammoth (and other players, of course), the reward is doubled! Think of it as a bonus for dominating the area. This module is fully compatible with the River & Rafts expansion and the Glacier tokens, so you can mix everything up and create an even more epic and challenging winter. It comes with the mammoth miniature and instructions, ready to be added to your collection.
