Treasures & laws

Terrain

Terrain	What it means
Pasture	+5 gold for each piece placed here (+7 if the land has a lake).
Mountains	Double reach cost. Some hold ore.
Moor	Double reach cost. No castle and no farmers here. Some hold herbs.
Lake	Nobody builds here, every claim stops here. Gives its land the lake bonus.

Ore and herbs pay +20 gold – but only to a piece that stands on the treasure. A knight takes 20 × 2.

Herbs sit in the moor, where castle and farmers may not stand – a job for a knight or a bishop.

Every map has one law. It is shown at the top of the screen; open it for details. In custom games you may pick it yourself.

Law	Effect
Mining partnership	Treasures pay only once two of your pieces stand in the same land. A single piece on a treasure waits; the second piece in that land collects.
One farm per land	At most one farmer per land.
Costly knights	Knights cost 20 gold instead of 10.
Costly bishops	Bishops cost 30 gold instead of 15.
In the king's pay	Knights cost only 5 gold.
No law	Base costs, no special rule. Chosen in custom games and on some campaign stations – never rolled at random.
