5 hexagonal cloister tiles. Each tower, place a cloister (instead of a black background tile) on the black central repository. All other rules concerning black filing remain the same. As with other black-backed tiles, a cloister can be purchased at the black central depot for 2 Silverlings, and is then placed on an empty storage space in the lower left corner of the player's board. This cloister can be placed on an empty space in the player's property that is adjacent to at least one previously placed tile that corresponds to the number on the player's die. The cloister has no function after the placement, but simply helps to complete a region.
Note: The size of a region increases by 1 for each cloister in it. However, a region containing one or more cloisters can never be more than 8! Example: A 4-space region with 2 cloisters is considered a 6-space region, earning 21 victory points instead of only 10.
