Play-by-Web version changes

• Open scoring (optional)
  By default this online version has open scoring (players' victory points are always visible), but at game creation it's possible to select the closed scoring option.


• Fast Setup Variant (optional)
  This is a variant in order to speed up the setup phase in play-by-web games. There is only one setup round where players simultaneously choose all 3 cities for their starting market booths. Players choices are all revealed only at the end of the setup round.
  This variant is available only for multiplayer games (in 2-player games it's too advantageous for the starting player).
  At game creation it's possible to choose between this variant and the standard setup.

• Ship movement
  For 2 coins the ship can be moved against the arrow direction.


• Endgame Bonus Points
  At the end of the game the following points will be awarded:
  • 2 points to the player with the tallest stack of market booths on the board.
  • 3 points to the player who initiated the end of the game by drawing a good marker from the last pile.
  • 4 points to the player with the most cities with at least one market booth.
  • 5 points to the player who sold the most one barrel goods.
(In case of tie the bonus is awarded to all tied players).
