Three game aids in one file!
Brief version of the rules. Tiny.

Full version of the rules. Not large at all. Fold this in 3 panels to fit into the box.
Grain cube point value chart. Makes very clear the value of the grain cubes.
But wait isnt this game so easy that it does not need a simplified rule set? Even
simpler means even faster, making it that much easier to get this game out and
running. The game takes 15 minutes now a total of 16 with a rules refresh.
There are 2 different versions of these game aids over the following 6 pages. The 1st
3 pages make reference to the standard components the Green Grain Cubes. The
final 3 pages make reference to Red Grain Cubes. The text is otherwise identical in all
cases. We highly recommend this change from Green to Red cubes in order to better
differentiate those cubes from the Blue cubes. Red cubes are a common color.
