Overview

As the Great Schism continues, the rival Popes call for their followers to make a Pilgrimage to their seats of power to gather influence with even more petitioners. Rekindle the flames of faith first stirred up in Avignon: A Clash of Popes. The standalone expansion Avignon: Pilgrimage introduces new ways to push and pull your way to Pope, even more characters with new powers that change with their position, and alternate setups that create even more variety. Play Pilgrimage by itself or combine it with the powers from A Clash of Popes to add new levels of strategy and tactics while preserving the quick and accessible gameplay of the original. Pilgrimage is a stand-alone expansion to Avignon that introduces six new characters, abilities differ than those in Avignon: A Clash of Popes. Gameplay is like that of the original Avignon, using the characters' unique powers to pull the character cards over to their side of the table (their congregation), or force an opponent to push cards towards them. The first player to get three characters into their congregation wins. Avignon: Pilgrimage will also feature alternate setup options that add additional strategy and tactics while still preserving the quick, accessible game play of the original Avignon game.
