Expansion: Giuseppe the Transmuter

Outside the cellar the book of Giuseppe the Transmuter has been found. It describes how to transform gold into luck...

This expansion adds the ability to have 4 players, 3 new potions (health, gold and psychic), portal encounters, 3 player classes and a new luck mechanic that allows players to Pay to Win. The expansion also adds extra tiles, markers and cards to accomodate a longer game.

Pay to Win

Players now start with 2 gold each. 1 Gold can be spent at any time during the game to change the value of a rolled die by 1. Gold picked up during the game is no longer turned into experience points, but the player may choose to spend gold on experience points at any time. The rate is 1 gold for 1 xp.

The value of a die may not go below 1 or above 6. Multiple players are allowed to Pay to Win over the same die.

Potions

• Health: Players targeted receive 1 hp. Players cannot have more than 4 hp. Barriers targeted aquire a health marker on their tile. Any action that would remove the barrier removes the marker instead. A barrier cannot have more than 3 health markers on its tile. Barriers teleported take their health markers with them.
• Gold: Players targeted receive 1 gold. Barriers targeted are removed - if the removal is successful 1 gold is placed where the barrier was.
• Psychic: Players targeted can choose any tile that is waiting for its adjacent tiles to be revealed and reveal the adjacent tiles that can be seen from that tile. If a monster is targeted it sends its ghost at the player who used the potion. That player must roll a die. If it is over their shield score they lose a hit point.

Portals

If a portal encounter card is drawn a portal marker is placed on the tile. If a player is standing on a portal marked tile during their turn, they may spend 1 action point to move to any other tile with a portal marker on it that isn't blocked.

Classes

Players have the option of starting as a specialist Alchemist.

• Iron Alchemist: Starts with a shield of 4 and 1 potion.
• Gold Alchemist: Starts with 1 potion and 3 gold.
• Drunk Alchemist: Starts with 3 potions and a shield of 2.
