The Scythe: Modular Board expansion allows you to change the landscape of Eastern Europa every time you play Scythe thanks to its double-sided game board and four large double-sided landscape tiles. Faction locations, i.e., the home base tiles, change each time you play.
The modular board adds a drafting element to set-up, along with a variant for a tighter map at lower player counts.

This is an expansion for people who have played a LOT of scythe and figured out the base game. It can create unbalanced faction layouts, but it always creates interesting situations that require you to think your way around. Good but for experienced Scythers only.

Creates almost infinite replayability in a game that I already see as the most replayable game ever. The cherry on top for people like me with 200+ plays. Only for truly hardcore scythers

[b]Pros:[/b] * Allows you to generate a different map each time you play with a double sided board and four double sided six hex location tiles. * Allows you to scale the map size according to how tight you want to make it for a given player count. * New building bonus tiles for additional ways to score buildings. * Compatible with any of the other expansions. [b]Cons:[/b] * There are far more lake tiles than on the original board. Perhaps this favours those factions that are able to traverse water? * The modular terrain tiles warp slightly meaning they won't sit entirely flat are are liable to be easily moved or spun around. [b]Summary:[/b] All in all, worth buying if you feel the openings in regular Scythe are scripted. Also helps if you want to scale the map to better support lower player counts.
