Great Western Trail: Argentina

The base game supports one to four, with Pedro for solo. Start with fourteen cattle cards plus one exhaustion card; normal hand limit begins at four.

Normally move, use the destination, then refill. Reshuffle only when a draw requires it. On your first turn, discard to four, choose any neutral building, and begin at phase B.

Move forward one or more locations within your step limit. Empty trail spaces do not count; rivals do not block. Stop at Buenos Aires.

Pay hand-symbol fees when passing or stopping. If unable, pay what you have and continue; other costs require full payment.

Own/neutral buildings offer local actions once each or one single auxiliary instead. Rival buildings offer only one auxiliary; farmers offer that or helping the current farmer.

Workers improve cattle buying, construction, and rail. Match farmer strength; revealing one/two cattle adds one exhaustion, three/four adds two. Discard revealed cattle.

Buenos Aires resolves extra delivery, income, loading, then foresights A/B/C. Extra delivery moves at most one quay disc within its city for grain. Income counts each distinct cattle type once, plus certificates.

Load a ship within your delivery value; normally avoid ships already bearing your disc, except zero/eighteen. Clear a board disc to unlock abilities. Spend available grain and two pesos per missing unit. Income removes exhaustion from hand.

Job-market progress triggers ship departures and transfers discs to quays. Crossing its final red arrow triggers ending; opponents each get one final turn. Score twelve categories; highest wins, ties share.

Solo modifies two-player setup. Start first with seven pesos, one exchange token, and four cards. Pedro has no money, exchange tokens, or herd deck; follow his cards, including their action before any Buenos Aires resolution.
