In Viscounts of the West Kingdom: Gates of Gold, people from near and far have come to see the splendor of our great city. While most are traders and labourers, eager to make a home for themselves, others seem to have more devious intentions. Can we really trust those who once attacked our walls? Do they truly desire peace? The King has sent his orders, but we will decide who may stay and who must go.
This expansion introduces the new King’s Order and Outsider Cards, new Building Bonus Cards, Manuscript Boards, and plenty of new Townsfolk, Heroes and Manuscripts Tiles.

The manuscript boards are nice, but the King's Order cards and Outsiders feel a bit clunky and hard to integrate.

The outsiders are fun but the rest I could live without. I don't think I'll playing with the expansion much.

Once played and after it leaves the player board it can be used to play or draft an outsider for instant bonuses or end of game scoring.
