Cards & Components
Inventory and component boundaries for Yinzi: Ming.
Boards
Two shared boards show four provinces, Local Markets, Foreign Markets, a City, a Port, tracks, Crop display, Caravans and ships. Four Player boards show five Command actions. The rulebook includes setup and iconography references, but not a complete inventory of every illustrated board space.
| Main Board A — provinces and trade | Main Board B — city and administration |

These are publisher gallery previews of the two boards; use the rulebook and board labels for exact rules and values.
This contributor photo shows a physical copy at SPIEL 26 as a table overview. It is not a face reference; individual cards and tiles are not readable enough to catalog. BGG image 9881989.
Cards
Each player has 12 Order cards. Reveal three per round; the upper half provides Command action strength, while its lower half shows Overseers assigned to City Directives. Three cards are used per round and removed from the game after use. The publisher gallery supplies three face samples and all four color backs; the complete face set is not catalogued.
