Orleans: The Plague Expansion

Manufacturer: Capstone Games

Mon Dieu, Quelle Horreur!

Now the inhabitants of Orlés;ans have been hit hard; the plague has come upon them, bringing suffering and misery to the population. There are many dead to mourn, and even the plague doctor can only bring limited relief and hope to the long-suffering inhabitants. The clergy also has little to offer in the way of relief. And so, in the end, everyone is on their own and must try to protect their followers as best they can.

  •Plague Cards: The Plague cards, 3 of which are laid out the beginning of each game, tighten the conditions.

  •Corpse Tokens: Corpse tokens go into the bags, together with the Follower tiles. Just like followers, corpses are drawn each round and block space on the market.

  •Indulgence Cards: By fulfilling Indulgence cards, Corpse tokens can be removed.

  •Plague Doctor: The new Plague Doctor figure is now available to each player nearly every round to help alleviate the consequences of the plague.

  •New Beneficial Deeds: Experience new action possibilities by sending followers to the new Beneficial Deeds game board.

  •New Events: New events change the conditions during each round of play; in addition, they usually bring new Corpse tokens to the players' market places.

  •Infirmary & Place Tiles: The Infirmary, as well as 3 new Place tiles especially for this expansion, bring new action possibilities to the game.
