Lisboa (Deluxe Edition) Board Game

Lisboa is a game about the reconstruction of the great Portuguese capital city after a series of terrible catastrophes. On November 1, 1755, Lisboa suffered an earthquake of an estimated magnitude of 8.5–9.0, followed by a devastating tsunami and 3 days of raging fires. The city was almost totally destroyed.Lisboa is thus played, in part, on a representational map of the city. During the planning of the downtown re-building project, the type of businesses permitted in each street was pre-determined. The clockmakers and goldsmiths had their street; as did the bookstores and libraries; the tailors and silk vendors; and the toolmakers as well. This all comes into play on the Lisboa gameboard.Players represent the nobility of Lisboa who will use their influence in the reconstruction and business development of the new city.In rebuilding the city, players will make use of the Royal Builder, who works with the architects to build Lisboa anew, while the Marquis will provide aid in the development of commerce. The King will provide players with political help in re-opening the beautiful new city. But the true reason you are rebuilding the city is not for greatness, or even fame or fortune. As a nobleman or noblewoman of Lisboa, your primary motivation is the acquisition of Wigs--a most important trading commodity of the Era, and the means of scoring points in the game.Contents:1 Game BoardRulebook4 Player Aid Booklets4 Expanded Player Boards60 Goods Tokens - 15 Gold, 15 Cloth, 15 Books, 15 Tools55 Real Coins (unlimited) - 30 "1" Real, 20 "5" Reais, 5 "10" Reais20 Plans16 Double-sided Public Buildings22 Large City Tiles5 Small City Tiles4 Stenciled Scoring Discs12 Royal Favor Tiles from 3 different nobles37 Clergy Tiles1 Cardinal Deluxe Meeple82 Political Cards12 Ship Cards70 Decree Cards63 Rubble Cubes in 3 colors1 Treasury Deluxe Token4 Wooden Price Markers in 4 colors8 Stenciled Influence Discs in 4 player colors20 Rubble set markers in player colors4 Deluxe Courtier Meeples in player colors32 Deluxe Official Meeples in player colors32 Wooden Houses in player colors1 Start Player Tile1 Screen Printed Rubble Cloth Bag1 Screen Printed Clergy Tile Cloth Bag1 2-Player Overlay12 Card Start-up Pack1 Decree Display Board14 Public Building Randomizer Tokens24 Store Randomizer Tokens
