Setup and Card Selection

For each age, the 2 new leaders and 2 new wonders of that age are mixed with the base game's leaders and wonders of the same age. A set of 4 cards per age is then selected at random from the combined pool and used in the game. Because exactly 4 cards per age are selected, the number of leaders and wonders used in the game does not change.

Selected cards may be shown face up (visible), so every player knows which leaders and wonders will be in the game, or kept hidden, so that a card is unknown until it is drawn from the civil deck.
