Landmarks are not Kingdom cards; including one or more Landmarks in a game does not count toward the 10 Kingdom card piles the supply includes. In fact, Landmarks are not considered "cards" at all; any text referring to a "card" (such as instructions to "name a card") does not apply to Landmarks. However, for reference, the Landmark effects are printed on cards in a landscape orientation with dark green frames. | Landmarks are not Kingdom cards; including one or more Landmarks in a game does not count toward the 10 Kingdom card piles the supply includes.

When choosing a random [[Kingdom]], the Landmarks may be shuffled into the randomizer deck; any Landmarks that are dealt once 10 Kingdom cards have also been dealt will be included in the game. |

− | + | == Official Rules == | |
− | + | * Landmarks provide new ways for players to score. Like Events, they are not Kingdom Cards. | |
− | + | * Players may choose how to determine what Landmarks to play with. They may shuffle them with Events and deal out 2 cards from that pile every game; they may shuffle them into the Randomizer deck and use 0-2 depending on how many come up before finding 10 Kingdom Cards; or they may use any method they like. | |
− | == | + | * Whatever method is used, Landmarks in use are visible to all from the start of the game. |
− | {{ | + | * We recommend using no more than two per game. |
+ | * Many Landmarks only apply when scoring at the end of the game. | ||
+ | * In addition to counting up their regular points, players add some bonus based on the Landmark. | ||
+ | * A few are penalties instead - players subtract points from their score. | ||
+ | * Some Landmarks start with 6 {{VP}} tokens on them per player in the game. So, 12{{VP}} in a 2-player game, up to 36{{VP}} in a 6-player game. These Landmarks then provide a way for players to get the {{VP}} tokens from the Landmark. | ||
+ | * When the {{VP}} tokens on the Landmark run out, players cannot earn further points in that way. | ||
