Rules & Validation
Scoring Categories (all scored at game end)
| Category | Source |
|---|---|
| Military (Shields) | Conflict tokens: +1 (win) or −1 (loss) per neighbor per age |
| Treasury (Coins) | 1 VP per 3 coins remaining (rounded down) |
| Wonders | Victory points printed on completed wonder stages |
| Civilian Structures (Blue) | VP printed on each blue card |
| Commercial Structures (Yellow) | VP from yellow cards with VP icons |
| Guilds (Purple) | VP based on neighbors' cards (varies by guild) |
| Science (Green) | Complex formula: each matching set of 3 symbols = 7 VP; each individual symbol type squared |
Science Scoring Formula:
- Count each symbol type (Compass, Wheel, Tablet): C, W, T
- Score = C² + W² + T² + (7 × number of complete sets of all 3)
Total Score: Sum of all 7 categories.
Validation Rules
- Each category accepts non-negative integers.
- Military can be negative if losses exceed wins.
- Science is calculated from raw symbol counts (compass, wheel, tablet) — app can auto-calculate VP.
- Total score is always the sum of the 7 category values.
