Paladins of the West Kingdom: 2019 Promos is a free add‑on that arrived with the 2019 Kickstarter campaign. It includes 16 Paladin cards – four copies each of Ganelon, Huon, Ogier and Turpin – plus three Outsider Hero cards, six Townsfolk cards (Overseer, Pickpocket, Swindler and three Patrons) and a Paladin Variants Rules card. The promo also adds three extra cards for Architects of the West Kingdom, a Peddler, an Acolyte and an Abbot. All of this supplements the solid engine of Paladins of the West Kingdom, which blends deck, bag and pool building, hand management and worker placement in a medieval city‑building setting. The promotional cards don’t change the core rules but provide new actions and characters that can be slipped into regular games, boosting variety and replay value. Perfect for players already fond of the base game who want fresh combos without buying a full expansion. As with most Kickstarter exclusives, the cards are limited and can be hard to find outside the original backers, but they’re a fun way to personalize the experience.

How many players can use the promo cards?
The cards are designed for the base game, which supports 1–4 players, so any number within that range can use them.
How much extra time do the promos add to a game?
Usually only a few minutes, as they replace or supplement existing actions without adding new phases.
Do I need to own the Architects of the West Kingdom expansion to use the extra cards?
No. The three extra Architect cards are optional and can be set aside or used with the base game if you wish.
Are the promo cards compatible with digital versions of the game?
It depends on the platform; most digital adaptations haven’t incorporated this physical content yet, so they work only in the tabletop version.
Is there any special rule for the Paladin Variants cards?
Yes, the included rule card explains how to integrate the variants, but they’re entirely optional and don’t alter the standard flow.
