The roads will be treacherous but they will still need to be braved by a select few in order to keep our cities thriving. In Merchants of the Dark Road, you are one of these brave few merchants that travel the dangerous paths between cities. While the job is perilous, fame and fortune await.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eDiscover the capital city where most of your actions will take place using a rondel action system. Collect and produce items to add to your caravan, or sell these items to local heroes and hire them to travel with you. Manipulate the market price of items, visit the back alley sellers, or delve a nearby dungeon for magical items to gain the potential for even more coin and notoriety.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eGather lanterns to ease your passage along the dark roads as you guide your caravan to distant villages. Deliver goods and heroes to the best destinations and gain fame for your bravery! Balance the money you earn with the height of your fame because your final score after a number of game rounds will reflect the lowest of these two values.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAfter all, what good is a purse full of the coin if the people don’t sing songs about you, and what good is a song with an empty mug of ale?\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e—description from the publisher\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eContents\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\n\u003cli data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e1 Kingdom Board\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e1 Market Wheel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e5 Building Tiles\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e2 District Markers\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e16 Lantern Tokens\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e24 Quartz Tokens\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e12 Horseshoe Tokens\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e60 Coin Tokens\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e4 Wagon Boards\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e4 Player Screens\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e4 Prestige Markers\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e4 Wagon Pawns\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e48 Hero Cards\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e22 Companion Cards\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e26 Event Cards\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e7 Steed Cards\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e19 Deed Cards\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e30 Commission Tiles\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e6 Wagon Upgrade Tiles\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e81 Goods Tiles\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e28 Night Dice\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e8 Illuminated Dice\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e5 Market Dice\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e5 Travel Dice\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e1 Oracle Die\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e1 Ruins Die\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e1 Private Concern Wagon Pawn\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e1 Private Concern Prestige Marker\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e1 Private Concern Goods Marker\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e10 Private Concern Action Cards\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e6 Guild Notice Cards\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e3 Sarcophagus Cards\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e6 Delivery Tiles\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e1 Rulebook\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e1 Solo Rulebook\/Adventure book\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"column\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\" data-mce-style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e70 cards size 44×67mm, 45 cards size 59x91mm, 26 cards size 87x112mm\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Elf Creek Games","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":32562175082547,"sku":"ECG018","price":30.25,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/www.booyakajuice.com\/s\/files\/1\/0274\/9631\/products\/pic5252479.png?v=1724261616","url":"https:\/\/www.booyakajuice.com\/products\/merchants-of-the-dark-road","provider":"booyakajuice","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
