This expansion is a must-have for Root fans seeking deeper gameplay variety and social engagement.

## Description

Product description The Riverfolk Expansion adds two new factions, new vagabonds, and exciting new game modes. Play as the: Lizard Cult - Attempt to indoctrinate the dispossessed creatures of the woods and spread your creed far and wide. Riverfolk Company - Capitalize on crisis. Offer services and expand your trade operations to secure your status as a merchant king. Second Vagabond - Compete with a rival Vagabond to gain fame and fortune while the other factions attempt to secure their rule. Cooperate: Mechanical Marquise - Wage war against the Mechanical Marquise in competitive or cooperative modes! Each Game Includes: More screen printed warriors and the pieces you need to play with up to six players. Three new Vagabond Variants. Cooperative and Competive Bot Play. Dozens of new player configurations! This Kickstarter Exclusive contains: Card Holders & Solo/Co-Op Mode Variant Vagabond New Core Faction Safety Warning No warning

Review: Really fun expansion, adds two unique factions that provide some great foils to the base game factions. Mechanical Marquise is good for practicing new factions too.
Review: Product arrived quickly in great condition. If you are looking to expand your game of root these insurgent factions have a lot to offer. Just note that they are not really suited to a two player game so I would only recommend this expansion of you can get 3+ people to the table or need the needles for the upcoming clockwork 2 expansion. Ultimately you just can’t go wrong with root so this is an obvious buy for fans of the game who are looking for more variability beyond the base game.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Not including learning the rules, how long does it take to play one game?**
A: Depends on how many people you are playing with. A 5- or 6-player game will take at least a couple of hours. First few games will probably take double that. I think that even with four players 60-90 minutes is probably optimistic.

**Q: What print version is this one? Is it the first print or the second print?**
A: Ordered from Leder Games and received a First Printing, Ninth Printing, 2022. Anyone receiving a First Edition, First Pressing in 2023 is getting a counterfeit copy of the game...

**Q: Why does the release date keep getting pushed back???**
A: Because people are just making up those dates, the actual date is after Christmas.  They are hoping you will pay for a pre-order that won't ship until after Christmas.

**Q: If it adds in 2 factions and another vagabond doesn't that mean you could play 7 players?**
A: It still only recommends up to six players. I think you’d have all of the component for a seventh but the board might be overly crowded at that point.
