Description

In the Palaces of Carrara, you will take on the role of a noble Italian family that has been tasked by the royal court to build many fabulous marble buildings. First you have to collect the precious marble blocks by rotating the main wheel, adding blocks until there are 11 to chose from, and then paying for as many as you can from one segment. Turn the wheel and add marble blocks.Purchase marble blocks from section of the wheel Once you have collected enough marble, you may choose one building from among the available 9 and build it in one of the 6 Italian cities of your choice. But be aware that not all cities accept all types of marble, and you will have to plan accordingly. Choose a building, pay the correct amount of marble and add it to your player board. Once you have constructed some buildings, you may choose to score. You score either by city, types of buildings, landscapes, statue placement, or money total. Each time you score you'll receive money, victory points (VP), or a combination of both. New to this second edition, when you decide to score, you may also receive a bonus such as 5 coins or 5 VP! The other players now have to follow your lead and score on their next turn if they want the same bonus. This introduces some tough decisions, and you may find yourself scoring earlier than planned in order to claim a bonus!
