==Summary==

Iceminers is a complete reworking and reimplementation of my previous (not so good) game Diamond Mine. Played on a + sign arrangement of 5 martian coasters the gem veins will always be arranged in a standard configuration but will randomly contain different colors. Rather than players delivering the mined pieces to their own starting spaces they must deliver them off the end of the appropriately colored coaster in order to score them. Players will roll a die on their turn to determine their allowed movement, and may steal from other players by landing on them during their movement, however they may not end their move in another player's space.

 

#Randomly fill 4 large opaque pieces with a medium and a small of differing colors, shuffle them shell-game style, and place them at the corners of the black coaster.

#If available, fill the 5th matching large opaque with another color not being used by any player (i.e. if you were using a white opaque set, fill it with a medium and small black from your Treehouse sets), and place it in the center of the black coaster. If not available, simply fill it with 1 small of the opaque color being used.

#Determine first player. The player with the most gemological knowledge goes first. In lieu of that, a die may be rolled.
