The end of the game is triggered if any of the four “X-Objectives” is achieved. Once one is achieved during a game round, finish the current round and then play one additional full round, which will be the final (in a 1-2 player game, if a player triggers the end through eXterminate, the game immediately ends). The end of the game cannot be "un-triggered," even if conditions for the X-Objective are no longer met. After the final round, players total up their final Victory Points. The X-Objectives are as follows:

eXplore – All Land Exploration Tokens in the game have been revealed.

eXpand – All of a player's Serfs and Warriors are in play.

eXploit – All 3 of a player's Towers are in play.

eXterminate – A player has destroyed another player's Capital City.

Final Scoring

Players total their final scores. In addition to their current scores from Casting Spells, Battling, and certain Exploration Tokens, players now advance their Score Tokens:

for each recruited Unit and Vessel in the game (not in the supply) as listed on the Capital City Board.

for each completed Building.

for each existing Tower ( per Land Region away from your Capital City).

for the final Capital Level as listed on your C.C. Board (no if at Lv.1).

for each Scribed Spell.

for each Land and Sea Region you control at the end of the game (not including your Capital City). A Region is controlled if a Unit or Structure is present in that Region.

Bonus from Building abilities as listed on the C.C. Board.

Bonus from certain Exploration Tokens in controlled Regions.

In the event of a tie, the tied player with the highest total Resources wins the game (based on the sum of all 3 Resource types). If the game is still tied, enjoy the shared victory.

Read Winning Faction Lore

After determining a winner, the winning player reads their Faction’s Victory Lore aloud (see Faction Lore).
