Meeples

She has published the details including how long it took and llinks to lots of photos ... the little gingerbread "meeples" are the best! ❋ Unknown (2006)

Each turn I had one action resource, and I had sixteen meeples to play with, each with its own movement actions. ❋ Unknown (2007)

I figured that whenever I had more meeples, and more available actions from which to choose, then I was probably winning. ❋ Unknown (2007)

One gives players an immediate cash payout, another let players buy extra cowboy meeples, another provides a free parcel of land. ❋ Unknown (2010)

Players may place their cowboy meeples either on the city grid to buy more parcels of land, or on the main track which contains spaces that generate cash, victory points, and opportunities to buy the buildings that are available for purchase that turn. ❋ Unknown (2010)

But players are not only competing with other players for land and resources, but can fall victim to direct robberies when enemy cowboy meeples show up on valuable holdings. ❋ Unknown (2010)

Each of the role cards has a flip side with an alternate power (I think I prefer the red side of the role cards because the Captain's yellow side -- which lets a player buy extra meeples -- seems a little too strong compared with the other yellow side powers). ❋ Unknown (2010)

Players can place their meeples on other players 'buildings in an attempt to rob half of the income that the building generates. ❋ Unknown (2010)

There are a couple of spaces that can be used by all no matter how many meeples are placed there, but most spaces generate a duel if more than one player's meeples are placed together. ❋ Unknown (2010)

Players can defend their buildings with their own meeples, and of course a duel results. ❋ Unknown (2010)

Each player controls two worker meeples and has to outguess (through secret/simultaneous cardplay) the opponents to get his workers in the right spot. ❋ Dale Yu (2009)

The box itself serves as a scoring track, with rabbit-shaped meeples running around a path of stones surrounding the storage space for the cards; while probably unnecessary (and a much larger box than this game would otherwise require), it helps to add to the whimsical nature of the game and can be somewhat forgiven. ❋ Unknown (2009)

It's not all luck though because you also have to place meeples on the board in order to score points. ❋ Unknown (2008)
