OVERVIEW OF SEASONS

In Seasons, each player plays the role of a wizard in a major tournament spread over three years. During each season, the wizards will have to make the most of the elements to summon powerful magical objects or familiars that will help them to obtain the most crystals, in order to become the most famous wizard.

With each season, the available dice change, forcing players to adapt and plan their strategy in advance, choosing the right time to play or activate their power cards.

SETUP

Place the game board in the centre of the table, then place the year marker cube on the Year 1 square in the centre of the board, and the season marker cube on the Year 1 square of the season wheel.  슬롯사이트

• Each player then chooses a new card from the 8 cards passed by his neighbour, and passes the others to his neighbour, and so on until each player has chosen 9 cards.
• From the 9 power cards chosen, each player makes up 3 packs of 3 cards. He then takes the first deck in hand, and places the second and third decks of cards under the Library II and III tokens, face down. These cards will be recovered by the player at the beginning of years 2 and 3.
