Godspeed

Godspeed is a unique worker placement game in which each worker has its own specialty and an influence value. The game takes place over 10 rounds, comprising 3 "seasons", each with its own objective. At the start of each round, a High Council is held, and players are confronted with an Event. Each player decides whether to commit a worker to the greater good, gaining benefits, or to suffer penalty from abstaining and keeping their worker. Next, players secretly bid for the first player marker and supply cards. Players bid with workers, using their influence value plus money and/or supplies. The top bidding player gets first choice of rewards, as well as a second claim from the pile at the end. Finally, players can place any remaining workers on action spaces to upgrade their nation board, build production buildings, gain materials, or collect development cards. Throughout the game, players are advancing on 4 prestige tracks, and at the end, these tracks, completed milestones, and completed objectives translate into victory points
