It brings an interesting twist to resource management: by placing a primary resource from your boats onto the card, the player gains the chance to "retrieve" that resource at the end of the next Camp phase, but with an extra of the same type from the stock. The trick lies in choosing the right moment to use the card, as the resource can only be reclaimed after placing the Camp token next to your scout. The game allows repeating the action with different resources, increasing tactical flexibility and future resource predictability. This card integrates well with the game's pillars: deck building, hand management, and worker placement. While deck building creates the base resource pool, hand management decides which resources to keep or discard; the promotional card acts as a "buffer" that lets the player wait for more valuable resources without losing game flow. In terms of experience, the card adds a planning layer to each Camp phase, requiring players to assess resource balances, stock, and future action needs. The effect of "recover +1" may seem simple, but in a 120‑minute game, each extra resource can be the difference between winning or losing achievement points. For those who enjoy optimizing resource strategies and creatively using promotional cards, Lewis & Clark: Uwe Rosenberg offers a fun and tactical experience, adding little extra complexity. ## FAQ ### How many players can play with this promotional card?
