Buy this first

Our take: A BGG reviewer with about 20 plays says it is almost a version 2.0 that rebalances the action spaces without adding real complexity and calls it the perfect kind of expansion for a heavy game; two replies agree you can teach new players with it from the start. A 2020 review scores it 7.5 out of 10 and calls it more of a remaster than an expansion but recommends adding it for anyone who will keep playing, and a reader there calls it essential and especially good at two players. A German reader review says it simplifies the base game for newcomers. Reddit availability threads (r/boardgames, 2023-2024) show buyers calling it the expansion everyone recommends, with US stock coming and going between reprints.
What you need first: Just the base game

What it adds: A modular action board that changes with player count and adds a fifth column for your last action each round, four new exploration boards, two new animals (pigs and horses), a personal artisan shed for each player and the option to discard unwanted occupation cards for victory points.
What it fixes: Tightens the loose two-player board, removes the rush for a single exploration board and rebalances weak and overpowered action spaces.
