The Archipelago is composed of a grid of hexagons, with each hexagon representing a variable tile. Initially The Archipelago is _________. Each player must select two starting locations (vertices) before performing other game actions. They place a settlement at each, then place two roads (see [[User:Xenon dichloride/Archipelago#Construction|Construction]]).

The ~~Archipelago~~ is ~~composed~~ of a ~~grid~~ of ~~hexagons~~, ~~with~~ each ~~hexagon representing~~ a ~~variable~~ tile. ~~Initially~~ The ~~Archipelago~~

== Tiles ==

The following types of tiles exist:

* Grassy - Produces Sheep

* Forestry - Produces Wood

* Grainy - Produces Wheat

* Mountainy - Produces Stone

* Clayy - Produces Brick

* Sandy

* Wet

== Resources ==

The following resources exist:

* Sheep

* Wood

* Wheat

* Stone

* Brick

When a player joins for the first time they recieve 2 Wheat, 1 Wood and 1 Stone.

== Values ==

Each tile except for 'Sandy' or 'Wet' is randomly assigned an integer value between 2 and 12 (inclusive) from a pool of 4 instances of each number, without replacement.

Every day, one player may roll two six sided dice. The result determines which tiles produce resources.

== Production ==

When a tile is determined to produce resources, all players with settlements on a vertex of that tile receive 1 of the resource for each settlement, and 2 for each city, on a vertex of that tile.

== Construction ==

Players can construct buildings at any times provided they have the resources to pay the cost. A player can only construct buildings adjacent to '''their''' other buildings. No building can be constructed on an edge or vertex of a 'Wet' tile.

The following buildings can be constructed:

== ~~Tiles~~ ==

* Settlement - Costs 1 Sheep, 1 Wood, 1 Wheat, 1 Brick

The ~~following tiles~~

Must be connected by at least two roads two another settlement or city, placed on vertexes. Grants 1 Victory Point (VP).

* Road - Costs 1 Wood, 1 Brick

Placed on edges.

* City - Costs 2 Wheat, 3 Stone

Replaces a settlement. Grants 2 VP.

== Trades ==

Two players may trade resources at any time.

== Seasons ==

After 3 Phases have passed (a season), The Archipelago resets. The player with the highest VP gains 4 Reputation Points (RP), second 2 RP and third 1 RP.

After 12 Phases (4 seasons), the winner of the Cycle is the player or players with the greatest RP.

~~== Values: ==~~

The player with the highest VP of the previous season may choose to randomly generate a new Archipelago of a size they choose, or create one. Another player must choose their starting locations before the past season winner.

~~Each tile is~~ randomly ~~assigned~~ a ~~value between 1 and 12 (inclusive) from~~ a ~~pool of without replacement~~
