## Description
In Neta-Tanka: Deluxe Edition, you step into the shoes of a clan leader from the Frostrivers tribe, living in harmony with nature along the Great Frozen River. As the Neta-Tanka, the supreme elder, nears the end of their life, it's time to choose a successor. Each clan presents a young leader to prove their generosity and ability to provide for the tribe. The game unfolds with classic worker placement mechanics: on your turn, place one of your workers on an available action space on the board. Everyone places their workers one by one until all have deployed theirs. Then, in turn order, the actions are resolved. Think ahead! Some actions can only be triggered if others have already been resolved. For instance, to hunt and get pelts, the 'Hunt' action must be triggered first. And when you process the hunt, the meat becomes available for others. Remember the resolution order, or your workers might have nothing to do! Another key point is linked actions: triggering two connected actions can give you a boost, either by improving the action or granting extra resources. Scoring comes in various ways: building tents, feeding the tribe, crafting items, raising the highest totem, and showing generosity to opponents. The player with the most points will be declared the new Neta-Tanka and guide the tribe into the future!
