    Wyrmspan: Dragon Academy

    Buy this first

    BGG 8.36 from 811 ratings. Two BGG reviews like the round tracker and replayability; one found fledglings extra effort at first, and a 70-play poster finds hatchlings less useful.

    Needs: Just the base game

    Adds: 80 new dragons, 25 caves, 14 objective tiles, 5 dragon guilds, trainable fledgling dragons and a new round tracker that offers an income choice when you pass.

    Fixes: The new round tracker lets you gain cards or eggs when you pass or end a round, so you run out of dragons or caves in hand less often (BGG review).
