The Castles of Burgundy: 8th Expansion – Trade Routes
Adds a fleet of personal “trading route” display cards that alter how goods are sold. Each player gets a set number of route cards (depending on player count) and lays them face-up above the player board to form a display. When a player sells all goods of a single type, those goods are placed onto the next open space on the trading route instead of onto the normal sale space. Placing a tile that matches the color of a display space immediately grants the bonus printed on that space, creating alternative rewards for selling goods.

Rules questions
Answered from the rulebook by Ludoya's rules assistant.
How many Trading Routes cards do I get?
Each player gets 5 cards in a 2-player game, 4 in a 3-player game, or 3 in a 4-player game (page 1).
Do I put my Trading Routes cards face down or in a particular order?
Place them face up, side by side above your player board, to form your trading route (page 1).
When I sell goods, do I still have to sell all the goods of one kind?
Yes. You must still sell all the goods of one kind; the expansion changes where you place them, not this requirement (page 1).
Where do the goods go when I sell them?
Place the sold goods on the display spaces of your Trading Routes cards instead of on the corresponding space on your player board. Fill the spaces from left to right (page 1).
Do I get a bonus when I place a good on a matching-colour space?
Yes. If the space’s colour matches the tile’s colour, immediately take the bonus shown on that space (page 1).
