These cards are the key to expanding your trading empire. The game offers two experiences: a base version, faithful to the original game, and an advanced version that includes the content of the Kaispeicher expansion, adding more depth and complexity for those seeking an extra challenge. Prepare to make strategic decisions, manage your resources, and outwit your rivals in a struggle for power and prestige in the Viking era.
