Game Resources The Pillars of the Earth on BoardGameGeek Mod Features This mod incorporates the expansion set and Major Sholto's player mats from BoardGameGeek. A big thank you to Gikerl for the cathedral model from the german version of the mod Die Säulen der Erde . It also incorporates a layout with snap points for ease of play for those like me with OCD. Description The Pillars of the Earth is based on the bestselling novel by Ken Follett and the 2006 game in the Kosmos line of literature-based games. At the beginning of the 13th century, construction of the greatest and most beautiful cathedral in England begins. Players are builders who try to contribute the most to this cathedral's construction and, in so doing, score the most victory points. Gameplay roughly consists of using workers to produce raw materials, and then using craftsmen to convert the materials into victory points. Workers may also be used to produce gold, the currency of the game. Players are also given three master builders each turn, each of which can do a variety of tasks, including recruiting more workers, buying or selling goods, or just obtaining victory points. Getting early choices with a master builder costs gold, as does purchasing better craftsmen. Players must strike a balance between earning gold to fund their purchases and earning victory points.
