About the game
Hey board game enthusiasts! Ready to give 'The Walled City' a little boost? This mini-expansion, Londonderry, brings four brand-new Guild Cards, perfect for those who enjoy the Londonderry map. They add an extra spice to your games, with new strategies and challenges. But wait, that's not all! If you're the type who likes to mix things up, these cards can also be incorporated into the main Borderlands deck, following the original game rules. This means more variety and replayability for those who have already mastered the base game. The expansion doesn't change the core of the game, but it adds that special touch that makes all the difference. The mechanics of area control, influence, auction, and voting remain the heart of the gameplay, and these new cards enrich those interactions even further.

Ideal for those who already enjoy 'The Walled City' and want to explore the game's universe more with additional content that integrates seamlessly.
