Glenn Drover's Empires: Age of Discovery – Plague Promo

If you are a fan of Glenn Drover's Empires: The Age of Discovery and feel like you have seen it all in your sessions, the Plague Promo is here to shake things up. This small set introduces three new Capital Building tiles—one for each game age—adding a layer of strategy and a touch of chaos that can shift the fate of your civilization. Don't expect just positive bonuses; these tiles introduce effects that directly impact population and map control, forcing you to rethink your expansion and defensive tactics. In the first age, the focus is on boosting your discoveries, but things get tense in the later ages with effects that reduce population in crowded colonies or target rival colonies directly. It is the type of expansion that doesn't overhaul the base game but seasons the experience for those craving an extra challenge. A crucial heads-up for collectors: these tiles were designed for the classic 'Age of Empires III' version. If you own the Deluxe edition, you already have these tiles, so there is no need to hunt for an extra pack. Also, if you manage to snag a loose copy, note that the material and colors might differ from the Deluxe components, which might bother those who are sticklers for board aesthetics. Ultimately, it is a neat thematic addition for those who still play the original version frequently and are looking for more variability in their capital building setups.
