Wrath of the Lighthouse is a single-player expansion for Imperial Settlers: Empires of the North, the iconic strategic board game by Joanna Kijanka (Robinson Crusoe: Mystery Tales, Neuroshima HEX: Beasts).
The expansion introduces a series of Scenarios combined into a cohesive Campaign. Become the emperor's right-hand and try to rebuild the magnificent Temple in time. On your way will stand a mysterious order with the Lighthouse symbol...
Each of the 15 scenarios has two possible endings. If you manage to score the required number of points and complete all the set objectives, you will win the scenario and start the next one. After losing a scenario, you can also continue the game, but be careful: if you lose three scenarios in a row, you will fail the entire campaign...
Wrath of the Lighthouse is compatible with other expansions (except the Saikoro Clan and the Urvarta Clan), so you will be able to complete the campaign multiple times, each time playing as a different Clan.
Being the emperor's right-hand man has its downsides - sometimes you have to do things you don't like. It seemed to you that the matter of rebuilding the Temple can be entrusted to just anyone. As it turns out, only the best can do this job.
Huge oak doors have opened, revealing to you an enormous interior. Your king has never cut back on the palace’s appearance, but he never had been able to decorate it well. You sit on one of the uncomfortable chairs and listen to subsequent reports. Poor crops, floods in the south and frosts in the north: or conversely? Hens do not want to endure eggs, and cows do not want to give milk ... At such times, the reconstruction of the Temple is probably a secondary task, right? You're wrong! The subjects are increasingly dissatisfied with her current state, so if you want to keep your job, you'd better act quickly…
Wrath of the Lighthouse Campaign consists of 15 Scenarios and each of them is divided into paragraphs. When preparing your game, choose your Clan first. Remember: the selected Clan must be used for the entire Campaign, so choose wisely! Next open the Scenario Book on the Neglected CountyScenario and set up all the items according to the base game rulebook and the Scenario Setup Changes.
When you’re instructed to read the Scenario, go to the indicated paragraph and follow the instructions in it. During the game you will use your own Progress Sheet throughout the Campaign. It is used to note any changes that will have an impact on subsequent Scenarios. In the expansion you will also find a new type of Workers - Follower Workers - who will have special rules.
After opening the box, you will find 4 Progress Sheets, the Scenario Book, and 55 cards needed to play the single-player Campaign: Double-sided Location cards, Crop Event cards, Naval Event cards, Special Field cards and the Follower card. Moreover you will find Lighthouse tiles, 30 different tokens and 10 Special Follower Workers. Each of these elements has a place in a special insert inside the box.
