General
-
Seating is assigned per game, so the starting player is not based on the way described in the rules. Player 1 of each team will be starting player for Game1, player no2 will be seated on 2nd spot at the table, etc etc. The second round (Game2), player 2 of the team will be starting player, player 3 will be seated on 2nd spot, player 4 on 3rd spot and player 1 is last player. For Game3 each 3rd player of the team is starting payer and with Game4 the last player of each team is starting player.
- Game1 = Dungeon Lords
- Game2 = Opera
- Game3 = Assyria
- Game4 = Vasco da Gama
- Registration starts at 10:00. First round will start at 10:15. Location is conference room Essen (above the restaurant at Hall 11). Normally the doors at the ticket booths open prior 10:00, but the doors to the convetion area will be closed. nstead you can cross the hall to the end (restaurant/stairs). There you can go up to conference room Essen. This way you can come in prior 10:00 and evade the crowd.
- Rules, translation of cards and board pieces may be put on the table as reference for your own convenience. They may not be used as playing pieces, unless you have received approval in advance from the organisation. For example if you are colourblind and can't distinguish between 2 colours of playing pieces, an addiotional colour can be arranged.
- It is prohibited during gameplay to negotiate with/persuade or influence other players. Though most players just want to give good advice, most of the time this is rather subjective and will benefit their own. You should rely on other players that they judge the gaming situation right and make the best possible move for THEIR own benefit.
- English rules are leading in case of a dispute. and any decision of a referee should be respected.
- No tools (paper - pen, computer or whatsoever) may be used to keep track of items which, according to the rules, are secret.
- During gameplay turns will not be retracked if at a later moment a mistake/error occurs (for example the whole table played several rounds and suddenly come to awareness that a rule is misinterpreted, from that point the correct rules will implie, but previous turns will not be corrected)). The simple reason is that it is very hard to retrack turns and in general will lead to disputes. This means that it is your won responsibility that if you believe that a rule is played wrong at your table you should bring it forward. If the whole table disagrees with you and you are still convinced, call in a referee. They are there to sort these things out.

EM rule: variant Opera Allegreto will be played.

Rules Opera Allegreto
The game play is slightly moderated:
- the first episode will stay 3 rounds
- the second episode will be reduced to 2 game rounds (-1)
- the third episode will be reduced to 2 game rounds (-1)
In total 7 rounds in stead of 9 game rounds.
Simply place the composer of the second century on the game round track on number 6, this way forcing the couting round one round earlier. The composer of the third century must be placed on round 9. So round 6 and 9 are skipped. Still keeping three counting rounds.
No other adjustements are necessary to play Opera Allegreto.
Revenues
You will find that:
- the tension and excitement will be higher;
- it will be harder to plan the Esperto, but this role will still be a vital one;
- the total number of victory points will be reduced evidently;
- money will stay tight during 80-90% of the game;
- more reduction will be made for excessive halls which cannot always be filled.
