Description

--- "Kemet: The Gates of Thonis" is a major expansion for "Kemet: Blood and Sand" that adds new maps, tiles, and the Crystal Pyramid mechanic to deepen strategic gameplay. Key mechanics include: - *New Maps*: Renewed Battlefield (6-player & foldable 3-God 3-player mode); City of Thonis (2-6 players) as a trading port with escalating central features. - *Crystal Pyramid*: Levels added each round on City of Thonis map; control grants ability to purchase from any colored pyramid board regardless of position. - *New Power Tiles & Miniatures*: Heliodore (Yellow) & Hematite (Gray) sets, each with 16 unique Power Tiles, 3 Game Up tiles, and corresponding miniatures for added depth. - *Reworked Tiles*: Green tiles from Book of the Dead expansion, updated with new illustrations and refreshed powers. Kemet: The Gates of Thonis expands Kemet: Blood and Sand with two new maps—the Renewed Battlefield, an updated 6-player map with 3-player foldable 3-God Battle Mode, and the 2-6 player City of Thonis trading port featuring the innovative Crystal Pyramid. This pyramid gains a level per round, peaking in the final round, and offers controlling players the supreme advantage of accessing any pyramid board for purchases irrespective of location. The expansion introduces Heliodore (Yellow) and Hematite (Gray) tile sets, each comprising 16 unique Power Tiles, 3 Game Up tiles, and exquisite miniatures, alongside reworked Green tiles from the Book of the Dead with fresh illustrations and powers, collectively enhancing strategic complexity. ---
