PuertoRico Gebäude

Building of the basic version

Production building

Production buildings transform the raw materials of plantations into goods.

In order to produce a merchandise (maintenance phase), the player must have many colonists both on plantation and on the associated production building.

(Example: with two occupied tobacco plantations, 2 commodities of tobacco are produced, although 2 colonists are placed in the tobacco store)

Maize is harvested directly from the plantation and does not require a production building.

Violet buildings

There are 17 different purple buildings, each one is present twice. The special function of the buildings is partly based on basic rules. The use of these buildings is voluntary, the effect of a building can be deactivated by clicking on the check box at the top right of the building.

Large (green) buildings

The following five buildings are only available once in the game. Although they consume two construction sites in the city, they are still only considered a building. Are the buildings at the end of the game occupied, if the corresponding conditions are fulfilled, there are extra points of victory.

Enlargement building

With the PuertoRico extension new buildings have come into play. In addition, the extension differs from the basic version in that at the beginning of the game first the buildings used in this game are selected by the players. This is done with the options /extension and /random.

For /random the new buildings are mixed in by chance, /extension the selection takes place as follows:

At the beginning of the game a window opens in which all available buildings are displayed. By clicking one of the buildings, this is selected. Reihum gets each player the opportunity to select another building; already selected buildings are marked by a red frame.

The production buildings are taken over from the basic version and are therefore not available - only among the purple buildings can be chosen; more precisely, building types are selected - after that two buildings of the selected types are available, with the exception of the green buildings, of which only one remains.

It should be noted when selecting that the buildings are divided into pairs or groups of four, according to their construction costs. For example, there are exactly two buildings with construction costs 1 (the small market hall and the aqueduct). One must be selected by such pairs of buildings. The same applies to four groups of buildings with the same construction costs that exactly two of them must be selected. In addition, exactly five of the seven green buildings (with construction costs 10) must be selected. Buildings that cannot be selected due to this restriction are automatically hidden from the dialog.

If all buildings have been selected according to this rule, the selection dialog closes and the game can begin.

Violet buildings

Aqueduct (1/1)

If the owner of an aqueduct produces at least 1 indigo with the large indigo, he receives an indigo; the same applies to the large sugar mill.

Forestry (2/1)

If the owner of a forest house arrives in the settler phase, he is allowed to convert the plantation to which he stands into a forest. To activate this function, click the right lower quadrants of the forest house before selecting the plantation; this is displayed by a green frame around the plantation platelets. This conversion cannot be reversed. Forests are never occupied with colonists.

If he builds a building, he pays a dublone less for two forests on his island (whether the forest house is occupied or not). This saving is in addition to the quarries.

Black

If the owner of a black market builds a building, the price may exceed its balance by a maximum of three dubons. The owner must then give a maximum of a colonist, a merchandise and a winning point "in payment", which gives him a dublone for construction. But there must be no money left after construction. The black market can therefore only be used if its revenue is actually needed to build the building.

Warehouse (3/1)

At the end of a master phase, the owner of a warehouse - apart from the one commodity that each player can always store - may store three other, arbitrary commodity blocks.

Guest house (4/2)

In the mayor phase, the owner can put up to two colonists in his inn. He may then transfer such guests to another place at any time, where they then act immediately and remain. If a player selects the supervisory phase, other owners of occupied guest houses will still be able to implement the guests before production begins.

Commercial items (5/2)

The trading post can be by its owner in the trading phase alternative to be used for the trading house, whether it is already full. In the trading post, any commodity can be sold, but in this case the market halls do not work out.

Church (5/2)

The owner of a church receives an additional victory point when building a new building worth two or three points of victory. If he builds a large building with four or eight win points, he gets two additional win points.

Small yard (6/2)

The small yard is used at the same conditions as the yard, with the following differences: the player can also load different types of goods during shipping, but only gets one victory point for two loaded stones. The player does not have to load as many items as possible.

Lighthouse (7/3)

The lighthouse is used at the same conditions as the port, only that it takes Dublonen instead of points of victory. If the owner of a lighthouse is also captain, he will receive another dublone.

Monofactory (8/3)

The monofiche brings money in the production of goods: the player receives a dublone less than the highest number of commodities he has just produced from a variety. However, maize is not taken into account.

Library (8/3)

The owner of a library receives the double privilege of its role. As a settler, he is allowed to take a second plantation at the end of the phase, but no further quarry (exception: Bauhütte). As a supervisor, he may also take two different items.

Gildenhaus (8/3)

If the owner of a guild house arrives for the first time in the master phase, he will receive a victory point for two identical merchandise in his stock.

Large (green) buildings

Statue (10/8)
