Glen More II: Chronicles

The base game supports 2–4 players. Take the double Home Tile, Scotsmen, and Clan Markers, placing one Scotsman in the Starting Village. Randomize rondel order; the rear player starts with five coins, followed by six, seven, and eight. Use the dummy die with two players; it is optional with three or four.

The rear player always acts next, moving forward any distance to an available tile, taking it and occupying its position. Remaining at the rear allows another turn. Turn order is not fixed, and players may finish with different numbers of turns.

Pay a tile’s printed cost before acquiring it, using the required resources, coins, whisky, or a Scotsman from your territory. You cannot choose an unaffordable tile. Ordinary territory tiles must share an edge with an existing tile and be orthogonally or diagonally next to one of your Scotsmen.

Your territory has only one river. River tiles must extend it, while non-river tiles cannot sit to the left or right of a river tile. Scotsman adjacency still applies; extending the river alone does not make a placement legal.

Overbuild tiles must cover a matching tile type, preserve its river status, and satisfy Scotsman adjacency; a Scotsman on the covered tile also qualifies. Transfer resources and Scotsmen upward and retain earlier one-time benefits. Only the top tile remains active, and the stack counts as one territory tile.

After placement, resolve one-time effects, then optionally activate the new tile and up to eight surrounding tiles, including diagonals. Choose their order but finish each activation before beginning another. Normally each tile activates at most once per turn, and each tile stores at most three resources.

During your turn, buy or sell the five resource types at the market. Buying pays the leftmost empty field and must immediately fund a cost or exchange; purchased resources cannot be stockpiled. Selling takes the rightmost coin stack. No empty field means no purchase; no coins means no sale. Whisky and Scotsmen cannot be traded.

A Person stays outside your territory, triggers no territory activations, and is retained for scoring. Place a Clan Marker on an available Clan Field, pay connecting road costs from the green start or any occupied Clan Field, and receive its effect. Follow individual exceptions such as Douglas permitting repeated claims.

End turns by refilling the rondel, leaving one empty space behind the rear piece. Discard untaken tiles passed by everyone. Placing the last tile of stacks A, B, and C triggers immediate scoring: compare Home Castle Scotsmen, landmark cards, whisky, and Persons with the lowest count in each category, scoring from the difference table without surrendering them.

When everyone reaches or passes The End tile, resolve a fourth comparison scoring. You may normally pass it and take a final tile, or stop on it to finish without another tile. Then lose three points per territory tile beyond the smallest territory, excluding Persons; gain one per coin and apply final landmark effects. Highest score wins, then most resources, then shared victory.
