Hey folks! We've got some new bits to spice up your Imperial Settlers: the Diplomacy Promo Tiles! Originally available at Essen 2016, these two central tiles bring some cool interactions. We have the 'Golden Route/Confiscation' tile, which lets you peek at another player's hand and snag a card from them, but they also get a copy and can choose a side. If they pick the confiscation side, they get some goods back. The other is the 'Declaration of War/Mobilization' tile, which produces swords. To grab it, you spend workers and declare war on an opponent, who receives the tile and chooses a side. The mobilization side generates workers and, when used, passes the tile to the next player. It's a quick way to add some twists and that extra bit of tension, you know? Perfect for those who already enjoy the base game and want more options for interaction and variable powers. Remember, as it's a promo, it might be a bit harder to find, but it's worth it for those looking to expand their Imperial Settlers possibilities. The rules are straightforward, but the interaction can lead to some table talk, so be ready for a bit of strategic 'take that'!

Do I need the base Imperial Settlers game to use these tiles?
Yes, absolutely! These tiles are an expansion and require the base Imperial Settlers game to be played.
How many players can benefit from these tiles?
The tiles are used in the center of the table and can impact all players, from 1 to 4, depending on how the game unfolds.
How much extra playtime do these tiles add?
They add very little setup and playtime, focusing on increasing interaction and strategic decisions, not on extending the game's duration.
Are the rules complicated?
The rules are quite straightforward and easy to learn, especially if you're already familiar with Imperial Settlers. The complexity comes from the strategic decisions they create.
Where can I find these tiles?
As they are promotional items, they can be hard to find. They usually appear at events or can be purchased from specific sellers in secondary markets.
Do they significantly change the game's strategy?
They add new layers of interaction and 'take that' opportunities, encouraging more diplomacy (or lack thereof!) and riskier plays.
