Line 4:
<li>Between two and five lifeforms, near-sentient or better -- opposable thumbs preferred
<li>One turn marker, with two distinct sides (I use a large coin for this)
<li>A [[https://www.icehousegames.org/wiki/index.php?title=Category:3HOUSE 3House]] set of Looney Pyramids (each player takes one color)^
<li>A deck of [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tarot tarot]] or [[http://www.thegamecrafter.com/games/gnostica Gnostica]] cards (or 3stica cards: coming soon)
<li>Fudge/FATE dice (minimum three, but preferably three per player)
 
<h3>GLOSSARY</h3>
Line 93:
<li>World: Has the power of any Major territory on the board.
 
<h4 align=center>NOTES</h4>
<li>A pushed territory may have to rotate 90 degrees to fit the board's horizontal-vertical tile pattern; this has no in-game effect.
<li>As a general rule, when you do something to one of your own minions, you may change its orientation; however, if you do something to an enemy's pyramid, you may not change its orientation.
Line 103:
<li>Yes, a minion using the Sun can place a Major territory in a targeted wasteland without first creating a Minor territory. Similarly, you can create a Drone without a pawn in your stash.<br>

<p>^A†A "3HOUSE" set is three [[icehouse piece|Looney Pyramid]] stash sets. If you already have your own pyramids, you need three of each size of one color, per player.<br>
 
†Originally‡Originally, [[http://www.ginohn.com/wunder201005/games/Gnostica/GnosticaRules.html Gnostica]] was played with a Tarot deck; if playing 3stica with them, Cups = create, Rods/Wands = move, Discs/Coins/Pentacles = grow, and Swords = attack. My thanks to Andrew Looney for his Pyramids, John Cooper for his original Gnostica rules, and [[http://www.thegamecrafter.com/games/gnostica this fine designer]] for being the main inspiration behind this game.<br>
 
‡Fudge₮Fudge dice are six-sided dice with 1:3 odds of getting each symbol: a plus (+), a minus (-), and a blank face. Anything with identical odds - like a deck of cards with one suit removed, three chips in a bag, <i>et cetera</i> - may be substituted.</p>
