Players score points (and gain money) by completing the construction of buildings, while placing a worker on a construction site costs money. Each building has four characteristics (carpentry, masonry, architecture, tilery) rated between 0 and 5, and the workers have the same characteristics valued in the same range. To complete a construction, the player must add enough workers to cover the four characteristics of the building.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEach player starts the game with 10 ecu and an apprentice. Five workers and five buildings are placed face-up on the table, with the others set aside in separate decks. On a turn, you can take three free actions, then pay 5 ecu for each additional action. The possible actions are:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOpen a site\u003c\/strong\u003e - Take one of the five buildings, place it front of you, then draw a replacement from the deck.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRecruit a worker\u003c\/strong\u003e - Take one of the five workers, place it front of you, then draw a replacement from the deck.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAssign a worker to a building\u003c\/strong\u003e - Pay the cost of the worker (as he won't work for free!), then place him on a building; when the building's needs are met, you earn the points and coins indicated, then flip the building over.

As soon as a player reaches 17 points, players finish the round so that everyone has the same number of turns, then you tally points, with each completed card having a point value and each 10 ecu being worth 1 point. Whoever has the most points wins.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Asmodee","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":599749845,"sku":"ASUSBLD01","price":15.52,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0274\/9631\/products\/pic1808127_lg.png?v=1578608884","url":"https:\/\/www.vaibhavhospital.com\/products\/the-builders-middle-ages","provider":"vaibhavhospital","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
