Description

--- <TLDR> Isle of Skye: Journeyman expansion adds personal progress boards for strength, prosperity, popularity; requires journeyman pawn to activate tiles for advancement, plus new scoring tiles. </TLDR> Key mechanics include: - *Personal player boards* Track progress in strength (warriors), prosperity (merchants), and popularity (heralds), with requirements impacting tile selling and placement. - *Progress advancement* Demands both tile placement and journeyman pawn travel to "activate" tiles for claiming development levels and rewards. - *New scoring tiles* Four additional tiles introducing fresh challenges tied to the expansion's mechanics. Isle of Skye: Journeyman, the inaugural major expansion to Isle of Skye, introduces personal player boards that chart advancement in strength, prosperity, and popularity—domains demanding warriors for protection, merchants for treasury flow, and heralds for acclaim. These boards impose requirements on each progress step, thereby shaping tile selling and placement strategies. Merely positioning requisite tiles proves insufficient for unlocking subsequent development tiers and associated rewards; instead, players deploy a novel journeyman pawn to traverse the kingdom and "activate" tiles. Complementing these elements, the expansion incorporates four new scoring tiles, crafted to embody the intensified trials of ruling as a glory chieftain while delegating laborious tasks to one's steadfast companion. ---
