	Description Edit \| History

The world you know no longer exists. There is no government. No army. No civilization. The United States has collapsed. And now, thirty years after the war started, new powers finally try to take control over the ruined country, try to establish a new order, try to control others and create a new country, a new State: the 51st State.

51st State is a card game in which players control one of the four powers (mutants, traders, New Yorkers and Appalachians) and try to build their very own new country. Players put new locations into the game, they hire leaders, and send people to work in buildings to gain resources and new skills.

Every card in 51st State can be put into play in three different ways. You can invade a location to gain many resources once, or you can sign a contract with this location to gain one resource every turn, or you can attach the location to your State so you can use its skill. One card, three possibilities. Lots of decisions and choices that matter.

51st State Resource Reference Card (Cube/Meeple Ver)

This sheet of 4 reference cards shows each of the game resources and a corresponding colored wood cube/meeple. I replaced my resource counters with wood cubes/meeples and made these card refs to help players. I'm making this available for other players considering making this upgrade to their game.

51st State Game Record v2

This PDF file contains a variety of scoresheets to record the results of your games of 51st State with anywhere from 1-4 players. Updated from v1 to correct formatting inconsistencies and to fit the sheets into the 51st State box. Just cut along rectangular outer border and game record sheet should fit inside box without folding. Comments welcome.

51st State Ref Card (revised)

This PDF is a revised version of the original ref card. It's larger and has the background removed for better readability. The icons are all updated to much higher resolution ones. All references to "agreement" have been replaced with "deal" to match revised edition. Various small formatting changes have been made. Special thanks to Ignacy!
