Expansion Tiles
The four Robin Hood tiles are Robin Hood, Maid Marion, Friar Tuck and Little John. The three Dark side tiles are Prince John, The Sheriff and Sir Guy.
Setup
The four Robin Hood tiles (Robin Hood, Maid Marion, Friar Tuck and Little John) replace the light stained Ranger, a Footman, a Pikeman, and Assassin tiles.
Prince John, The Sheriff and Sir Guy replace the dark stained Duke, Champion, and Duchess tiles.
The Robin Hood player keeps the starting set-up of two Footman, but Robin Hood takes the place of the Duke.
The other player keeps the starting set-up of two Footman, but the Sir Guy tile takes the place of the Duke.
Winning the Game
To win, the Prince John player must capture Robin Hood.
For the other player to win, he must capture however many of the three tiles that are on the board (Prince John, The Sheriff, Sir Guy). For example, if only Prince John is on the board and that tile is captured, the Robin Hood player wins. But if Sir Guy and The Sheriff are on the board and Prince John is captured, the Robin Hood player would not win (he still must capture The Sheriff and Sir Guy); see Mantle of The Duke below.
Mantle of The Duke
The "mantle" of the Duke (i.e. where tiles are placed on the board once they're drawn from the bag) changes for the Prince John player based upon which tiles are on the board. The "line of succession" is as follows:
- If Sir Guy is the only Robin Hood tile on the board, he is considered the Duke.
- If The Sheriff is on the board, even if Sir Guy is on the board, The Sheriff now takes its place as the Duke.
- If Prince John is on the board, even if The Sheriff and Sir Guy are on the board, Prince John wears the mantle of the Duke.
If more than one of these tiles is on the board and the tile wearing the mantle of the Duke is captured, the mantle passes to the next appropriate tile. For example, if all three tiles are on the board and Prince John is captured, the mantle would pass to The Sheriff. Yet if only Prince John and Sir guy are on the board and Prince John is captured, the mantle passes to Sir Guy.
Print and Play
As with the The Duke Print & Play, simply print out the page, cut out the tiles, fold them and paste/tape the front and back together.
