'''Aqueduct''' is a [[Landmark]] from [[Empires]].  It acts kind of like a [[Gathering]] card, accumulating {{VP}} [[Victory token|tokens]] as players gain [[Treasure]]s, and then giving them to a player when they gain a [[Victory]] card.

=== Other rules clarifications ===
+
* Aqueduct only puts {{VP}} on {{card|Silver}} and {{card|Gold}}, but if you gain a different Treasure in the Supply that has {{VP}} on it, you'll move 1{{VP}} to Aqueduct. For example:
+
** If you have {{Project|Capitalism}} and then gain a {{Card|Farmers' Market}}, you'll move 1{{VP}} from the pile onto Aqueduct.
+
** [[Action]] Supply piles can have {{VP}} on them due to {{Landmark|Defiled Shrine}}. If you [[rotate]] to e.g. {{Card|Sunken Treasure}}, then gaining it would move 1{{VP}} to Aqueduct.
+
* If the card you gain is both a Treasure and an Action (because of {{Project|Capitalism}}, or because it's {{card|Crown}}), you move 1{{VP}} each to Aqueduct and {{Landmark|Defiled Shrine}}. If there's only 1{{VP}} on the pile, you choose which Landmark to move it to.
+
* If you gain a Treasure from somewhere other than the Supply (e.g. gaining a {{card|Gold}} from the trash with {{card|Treasurer}}), you'll still move the {{VP}} tokens from that card's pile.
+
* If gaining a Victory card causes you to gain a Treasure (e.g. {{Card|Hoard}} makes you gain a {{Card|Gold}}), you can move the {{VP}} from the Treasure pile to Aqueduct, and then immediately take them.

Because people tend to start with silver and gold may be either easy to obtain or actually valuable as payload, there is a high probability that there will land some tokens on Aqueduct. Just like Battlefield, this may incentivise a slightly sooner greening stage or at least a single gain of a good victory card, maybe an early {{card|cemetery}}.
 
There is also the possibility for a gimmicky "megaturn", such as overpaying a lot for masterpiece, to then put all of the 8 points on Aqueduct and then buying a single Estate or even a feodom, if available. This beats out the point gain of a province and helps the deck more, if your deck can handle the 10 stop cards. This strategy, more than any other megaturn suffers from 4 or 5 player games, because chances are high somebody else already took the points before the megaturn can happen.

{{Quote|Text=This started out putting 5{{VP}} on each Treasure pile. I liked that but you only have so many {{VP}} tokens. I played around with how to cut down on tokens and ended up with 8 each on Silver and Gold.
