==Overview==
The trumpets have sounded, the fires are lit, and the Elemental Tribes are heading to the celebration! You have thirty days to harness the power of the elements to build towering crystal shrines as tributes. Can you impress the chieftains? The strongest Tribes award the most prestige, so make haste to complete your Elemental Towers!

'''Moving a pyramid/tower of the matched color:'''<br>
Choose any pyramid or tower, on any card, that is the color of the matching element. Move that pyramid or tower one adjacent space. No more than one pyramid/tower may occupy a space, but you may move a smaller pyramid into a space containing a same-colored pyramid of exactly one size larger to form a tower (see “Stacking Pyramids into Towers”). A tower is moved as a single unit and cannot be unstacked. Pyramids of different colors do not form towers and may never occupy the same space.
<br><br>
'''Stacking pyramids into towers:'''<br>
When you move a pyramid into a space containing a same-colored pyramid exactly one size larger, you must immediately stack the pyramids and form a tower. Once stacked, a tower cannot be unstacked. Towers must be stacked in order; you can only stack small pyramids on medium pyramids, and only medium pyramids on large pyramids. '''Small pyramids may not be stacked directly onto large pyramids.'''
<br><br>For example, if you move a small red pyramid into an adjacent space containing a medium red pyramid, you must stack them to form a small-medium red tower. But, you may not move a medium pyramid into a space containing only a small pyramid. Also, you may move a small-medium red tower into an adjacent space containing a large red pyramid. You immediately stack them to form a complete red tower.
===Resolving Action Cards===
Line 182 ⟶ 186:
* Discard the third card.
When you have gone through all the cards, your facedown deck will have 30 cards in it. Put the discards back into the box. Shuffle your deck, draw one card to place face-up in the center of the table, and shuffle & deal the 5 goal cards into a scoring row. You are ready to play!
