Official No Die Variant

Florenza's official No Die Variant: an Artist's prestige set by where the Artwork is plus the Fiorini you add as Incentive, with the Muse raising the limit.

Short tag: [NoDie]

The publisher’s own variant for players who want as little luck as possible: no die is rolled for an Artist’s prestige. Agree on it before the game and use it for every Artwork. Everything else stays the same, including Masterpieces.

How it works

When an Artwork is completed, work out its value instead of rolling. The table method is a game-wide choice, not something players switch between for each Artwork (FAQ):

Value = Base Value + Incentive

Then read the Artist’s prestige table at that value, exactly as if the die had shown it, on the line of the skill you paid for.

Base Value

Incentive

Pay extra Fiorini on top of the Artist’s cost: +1 for every 50, up to 150 Fiorini (+3).

You may pay an Incentive to an unnamed Artist too — to avoid the −1 in your District, or to reach the +1 in the Cathedral.

Favor of the Muse

The Muse adds 1 more possible point of Incentive: the limit becomes 200 Fiorini (+4). As usual she helps only once a round, the first player to ask, and her card turns over.
