Emperor Qin Shi Huang has passed away. To protect him in the afterlife, a great army in the form of statues of loyal warriors must be assembled to stand guard at the emperor's tomb. You will be among those tasked with building this magnificent army.
In Terracotta Army, you represent talented artisans and artists working to build the marvelous assemblage of statues. During the game, you collect resources, upgrade your workers, and seek favor with the Emperor's advisors. Your goal is to play a crucial role in the process of creating the Terracotta Army, and your success is measured in victory points (VP). During the game, you and your comrades build the army together, but after the end of the fifth round of the game, only one of you - the one with the most points - will be the winner.
During the game, you place warrior miniatures in the mausoleum, forming groups. Miniatures in a group may belong to multiple players, as indicated by the players based on those miniatures. Multiple separate groups of the same miniature type may exist in the mausoleum.
You will have many opportunities to score points based on Domination and Presence. To achieve Domination, you must be the only player with the maximum of the specific resource or statue type currently scored. (If you are the only player, you have Domination.) To have Presence, you must have at least one specific resource or statue type currently being scored.
At the end of the fifth round, the player with the most victory points wins.
