We usually play two-player, and Kingsburg has been a very fun addition to our gaming rotation.  So, after playing the base game a few times to figure out the general mechanic, we decided to give this expansion a try.

We were not disappointed, and I consider this expansion a very worthwhile addition to the game as it gives you a great amount of bang for your buck.  Specifically, you can use one or more of the following additions in any combination:

(1) The new province sheets which adds more rows of buildings -- 7 instead of just 5;

(2) Up to two randomly assigned alternative building rows to modify your province card -- there are 2 each of 7 different rows (14 total);

(3) Randomly selected Governor card -- which gives each player one of 24 different special abilities;

(4) Randomly selected Destine cards -- you draw one of the 29 cards at the beginning of each year, and it has an effect on everything that happens during that year;

(5) Soldier tokens -- which replace the use of the dice during the Winter Phase (Phase 8).

Given the number and type of options provided by this expansion, the possibilities are endless. We never play the base game without at least one of the expansion components at this point.
