Ever had that moment where you want to make a crucial move, but your worker's color just doesn't match the available spot? 'The Vassals' mini-expansion is here to solve that drama in Paladins of the West Kingdom. The star of the show are the new Yellow Workers (the Vassals), who act as 'wildcards'. They can be placed on any spot on the board, completely ignoring the color requirement of that action. But that's not all: they also give your economy a little nudge, providing a discount of 1 Silver or 1 Provision on the cost of the action where they are placed. It's the kind of upgrade that brings more flexibility and reduces the frustration of being stuck due to color mismatches.

In addition to the 8 yellow workers, the expansion includes Tavern cards and the King's Favour card, adding new layers of strategy and interaction to the base game. It's worth noting that while available for individual purchase, this mini-expansion is also included in the Collector's Box (that giant organizer box that fits everything, including sleeved cards). If you already enjoy the strategic weight of Paladins and want to give your gameplay more fluidity, the Vassals are the perfect addition. They don't change the game's core essence, but they polish the experience, allowing you to execute your plans with more precision and less dependence on the worker draft luck. It's the ideal tool for those looking to optimize their resource engine and dominate the kingdom more efficiently.
