Musketeers Expansion Pack Rules
The four musketeer tiles (D'Aragnon, Athos, Porthos and Aramis) replace the light stained Duke, Duchess, Assassin and Wizard Tiles.
Richlieu, de Winter and Rochforte replace the dark stained Duke, Duchess and Wizard Tiles.
The musketeer player starts with any three of the musketeers on the board; the player chooses which three, but they must still be placed using the standard set-up rules (i.e. one in either center square at the edge of the board, the other two fully adjacent).
The other player keeps the starting set-up of two Footman, but the Richlieu tile takes the place of the Duke.
To win the musketeer player must capture Richlieu. For the Richlieu player, as soon as all musketeers currently on the board are captured, he wins (this could be three if the fourth tile has not yet been drawn from the bag, or four if it has been drawn and placed).
Placing a New Troop Tile
Whenever the musketeer player places a new tile, it is always placed in one of the two starting squares where a Duke is normally placed. If both tiles are occupied by friendly tiles, then a new Troop Tile cannot be drawn and placed; if either square is occupied by an enemy tile, then a new Troop Tile can be placed in that square, capturing said tile.
Tile Movement Grids
Each tile has a movement grid on each side. The square in the centre of the grid (marked P below) is the tile's own square. The other squares show the movement icons printed on the grid. The grids are listed as printed on the sheet, left side first and right side second. The four light-stained musketeers are listed first, then the three dark-stained tiles.
Key used in the grids below:
- ● solid dot
- ○ hollow circle
- ✡ hollow six-pointed star
- ▲ solid triangle (the sheet draws these as small wedges; the printed key does not give an orientation, so each is transcribed as ▲)
- \ square carrying a diagonal line from its top-left corner to its bottom-right corner, drawn on the sheet as dark marks at those two corners (a square with a symbol and a diagonal is written as ●\)
- P the tile's own square
- . empty square
