"In Ethnos, players call upon the support of giants, merfolk, halfings, minotaurs, and other fantasy tribes to help them gain control of the land. After three ages of play, whoever has collected the most glory wins!

In more detail, the land of Ethnos contains twelve tribes of fantasy creatures, and in each game you choose six of them (five in a 2/3-player game), then create a deck with only the creatures in those tribes. The cards come in six colors, which match the six regions of Ethnos. Place three glory tokens in each region, arranging them from low to high.

Each player starts the game with one card in hand, then 4-12 cards are placed face up on the table. On a turn, a player either recruits an ally or plays a band of allies. In the former case, you take a face-up card (without replacing it from the deck) or the top card of the deck and add it to your hand. In the latter case, you choose a set of cards in your hand that match either in tribe or in color, play them in front of you on the table, then discard all other cards in hand. You then place one or more tokens in the region that matches the color of the top card just played, and you use the power of the tribe member on the top card just played.

At the end of the first age, whoever has the most tokens in a region scores the glory shown on the first token. After the second age, the players with the most and secondmost tokens score glory equal to the values shown on the first and second tokens. Players score again after the third age, then whoever has the most glory wins. (Games with two and three players last only two ages.)" -via BoardGameGeek

Good work! I've added a link to your mod to the description. I don't have the spirit to keep up a mod nowadays.

I published a scripted Ethnos mod here with additional features and fixes. The asset hosting for it should be reliable (on steam). Thanks to Jamo for uploading components.

- Trolls 5 and 6 are missing.

- Troll 2 is actually a duplicate of Troll 3 (if you hover over it, it says 2, but the token itself is another 3).

- The setup cards won't load at all, just plain white rectangles.

- Not sure if I'm doing something wrong, but the setup button on the right doesn't appear to do anything.

TTS update apparently jacked up a lot of mods. Looks like maybe yours is one of them? Hope you get around to it, the mod looks nice and clean otherwise. Highly underrated game!

I just tried it, and the assets were still broken.

Yes, same here, can see all but Troll token 5 and 6 plus the card backs show as a normal card deck back rather than the Ethnos backing

I now see troll tokens 1-4 but still can't see 5&6 weird
also the card back for the randomizer can just be the card back for the other cards. Can't see it either (the randomizer backs)

I switched hosts for the assets reporting as broken. Can anybody confirm if this is working?
