Aqueduct is a Landmark from Empires. It acts kind of like a Gathering card, accumulating tokens as players gain Treasures, and then giving them to a player when they gain a Victory card.

[edit] Official FAQ
- If you gain a card that is both a Treasure and a Victory card, such as Humble Castle, you can resolve the abilities in either order.
[edit] Other rules clarifications
- Aqueduct only puts on Silver and Gold, but if you gain a different Treasure in the Supply that has on it, you'll move 1 to Aqueduct. For example:
- If you have Capitalism and then gain a Farmers' Market, you'll move 1 from the pile onto Aqueduct.
- Action Supply piles can have on them due to Defiled Shrine. If you rotate to e.g. Sunken Treasure, then gaining it would move 1 to Aqueduct.
- If the card you gain is both a Treasure and an Action (because of Capitalism, or because it's Crown), you move 1 each to Aqueduct and Defiled Shrine. If there's only 1 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 Gold from the trash with Treasurer), you'll still move the tokens from that card's pile.
- If gaining a Victory card causes you to gain a Treasure (e.g. Hoard makes you gain a Gold), you can move the from the Treasure pile to Aqueduct, and then immediately take them.
[edit] Strategy
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 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.
