For the normal expansion setup, draw one Clear Skies tile and place it with the two base end-game tiles; score all three. Alternatively, remove specialist scoring cards, use a base tile for the first scoring, then draw Clear Skies tiles for the second and both end-game scoring spaces. Do not use this module in solo.
Give each player the Nature Reserve action card and matching income marker. Shuffle the Nature connection tile into the zone A connection tiles, place the five reserves beside the board, and shuffle the Nature specialist cards into their matching decks.
Give each player the Electrical Pole action card and player aid; place the poles beside the board and shuffle the Cardal specialist cards into their matching decks.
