## Description
Scythe: Promo Pack #3 adds Objective cards 24‑27, the ones that appear in every Kickstarter edition of Scythe (STM601‑604) but are absent from retail copies. These cards are a welcome addition for owners of the base game, introducing fresh victory conditions that shift scoring and force new strategic choices. Each card specifies a particular goal—such as controlling certain territories, producing resources, or achieving unit combos—and awards points at game end, increasing strategic variety. Since the pack contains only cards, it doesn’t modify the core rules or components; you simply shuffle the new objectives into the existing objective deck. This means it works for solo play as well as games with up to five players, without requiring extra table space. Playing time stays around 90‑115 minutes, and the complexity remains low, matching the original Scythe’s learning curve. In short, if you enjoy exploring different paths to victory and want more replayability, these cards provide a cheap, straightforward upgrade that adds new tactics without any hassle.
