Description

--- This expansion enables extending player influence to coasts via new coast tiles and river mouths linking to seas, forming the foundation for additional coast-themed expansions. Key mechanics include: - *Coast tile placement* Introduces new tiles to expand gameplay areas to coastal regions. - *Influence extension* Allows players to grow their control from inland to seas via river mouths. - *Expansion compatibility* Serves as a core base for multiple subsequent beautiful coast expansions. This expansion enhances the base game by introducing new coast tiles that permit players to extend their influence outward to coastal areas, specifically incorporating river mouths that connect rivers directly to the seas. It establishes a foundational framework, acting as the essential base upon which several additional, aesthetically pleasing coast expansions can be built, thereby broadening strategic depth and thematic variety in tile placement and control mechanics. ---
