your colony…
You can now no longer build any structures without receiving
manufactured goods from the mother country
You must acquire as many raw materials as possible and trade them
with the Mother Country to obtain the manufactured goods necessary
to create the largest colony possible
You must also trade raw materials for supplies that you need to survive
every turn!
Each team needs to choose a representative who will ferry goods
between the colonies and the mother country (aka Mr. S)
Costs
2 raw materials = 1 manufactured good
To build:
For each building, you must sketch what you have built on the piece of paper!
Your team must do SQUATS for the number of raw materials you
collects (i.e. if you rolled a 3, 6, and 5 each member of your team
must do 14 squats)
