This extension for Catania consists of several different scenarios. At the heart of all these scenarios, you will have to explore an unknown sea with your ships and you will have to found colonies on the islands you discover. To this end, the very first scenario in this expansion is designed to teach you the basic rules that govern this expansion. In the following scenarios, you will have additional objectives (missions). You will have to seize pirate lairs, catch fish or negotiate with the inhabitants of the queues to obtain their precious spices.
In order to complete the Council's missions, Volis will have to build well-known infrastructure, settlements and roads, to which new items will be added: settlers, ships, harbour settlements, units. pirate ships, fish and spice bags. You will obtain victory imams by building colonies and port colonies. You will also be able to obtain additional VPs by completing the various missions that will be offered to you. The first player to reach the required number of VPs wins the game.
