## Description

Leder Games Root & Variations

Review: Excelente expansión - Me encanta Adquirí Root: TRFE junto con el juego base ya que considere que el bot que incluye esta expansión más las dos facciones nuevas y el vagabundo adicional aportaban más por el precio. Esta expansión es muy buena, las lagartijas son muy divertidas de utilizar ya que su capacidad de aparecer en cualquier punto del mapa las vuelve siempre un peligro latente. Las nutrias tienen un mecanismo social increíble que puede explotarse de mil maneras si eres una persona extrovertida o simplemente quieres tener una mayor interacción con las demás facciones, es una manera de aplicar el té ayudo y me ayudas muy divertido. El marquesado mecánico es muy útil para que los nuevos jugadores puedan enfocar su energía en un modo cooperativo light para aprender a jugar y posteriormente entrar en un modo competitivo con un mejor conocimiento de su facción. Simplemente considero que si te gustan las facciones nuevas, y quieres expandir lo que incluye el juego base, esta expansión no debe faltar.
Review: Great expansion - Really fun expansion, adds two unique factions that provide some great foils to the base game factions. Mechanical Marquise is good for practicing new factions too.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Not including learning the rules, how long does it take to play one game?**
A: Depends on how many people you are playing with. A 5- or 6-player game will take at least a couple of hours. First few games will probably take double that. I think that even with four players 60-90 minutes is probably optimistic.

**Q: What print version is this one? Is it the first print or the second print?**
A: Ordered from Leder Games and received a First Printing, Ninth Printing, 2022. Anyone receiving a First Edition, First Pressing in 2023 is getting a counterfeit copy of the game...

**Q: Why does the release date keep getting pushed back???**
A: Because people are just making up those dates, the actual date is after Christmas.  They are hoping you will pay for a pre-order that won't ship until after Christmas.

**Q: If it adds in 2 factions and another vagabond doesn't that mean you could play 7 players?**
A: It still only recommends up to six players. I think you’d have all of the component for a seventh but the board might be overly crowded at that point.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great expansion
*by H***D on 19 January 2026*

Really fun expansion, adds two unique factions that provide some great foils to the base game factions. Mechanical Marquise is good for practicing new factions too.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Excellent addition of insurgent factions
*by A***L on 31 May 2022*

Product arrived quickly in great condition. If you are looking to expand your game of root these insurgent factions have a lot to offer. Just note that they are not really suited to a two player game so I would only recommend this expansion of you can get 3+ people to the table or need the needles for the upcoming clockwork 2 expansion. Ultimately you just can’t go wrong with root so this is an obvious buy for fans of the game who are looking for more variability beyond the base game.
