D) take 2 black cards
If the player has chosen as his 1st action to
score a district, he must take as his 2nd
action take 2 black cards. He takes the top-
most 2 cards from the face down black
stack and adds them to his hand, without
showing them to the other players.
Note: additionally, each player, who has no
skyscraper in the scored district, now takes one
black card from the face down black card stack,
without showing it to the other players.
the 3rd action
A - D) move a commissioner
Regardless of which action a player has
chosen as his 1st action, he must move a
commissioner as his 3rd action.When a
player moves a commissioner, he moves
either of the two, as he chooses.The
players move the commissioners from
left to right from City Hall,
through the city to Central Park. On
each move, the player either moves the
chosen commissioner to the next (adjacent) district or Central Park (when
that is next). If there are two or more possible adjacent districts (from City
Hall, 34th Street East or West, and Times Square), the player may choose
freely among them.After moving a commissioner from a district, the
player places a matching commissioner marker (from City Hall) in
the district just moved from to mark which districts the commissioner has
visited.
Instead of moving a commissioner in the direction of Central Park, a player
may move a commissioner already in Central Pa rk (and only in such a
case), back to City Hall.When this occurs, the normal game flow is
immediately broken.The players now bid on building plots in the districts
that were visited by the just moved commissioner (the commissioner
markers show which ones) and build skyscrapers there (see more on this
under "The auctions").
A player may move a
commissioner to any adjacent
district, even if the other
commissioner is there or if a
marker for the other
commissioner is there.
In other words: players are
not restricted in their choice
of paths for a commissioner
because of the presence or the
path taken by the other
commissioner.The two
commissioners operate
independently from each
other.
Blue scores this district. He takes 2
black cards plus a third black
card, as he has no skyscraper in
this district. Green also takes 1
black card.
The player may either move the white
commissioner from Central Pa rk back to
City Hall or the beige commissioner to
Central Pa rk.
