Understanding Your 7 Wonders Score
7 Wonders is a popular board game where players lead one of the seven great cities of the ancient world. Over three ages, players develop their city by building structures, advancing science, and engaging in military conflicts. The ultimate goal is to accumulate the most victory points by the end of the game.
How Scoring Works in 7 Wonders
The final score in 7 Wonders is a sum of points from six distinct categories. Understanding each category is crucial for both playing strategically and accurately calculating your score.
1. Civilian Structures (Blue Cards)
These cards represent civic buildings and cultural achievements. Each blue card has a specific number of victory points printed on it. Simply sum up the points from all blue cards in your city.
Example: If you have blue cards worth 3, 5, and 7 points, your Civilian Structures score is 3 + 5 + 7 = 15 points.
2. Scientific Structures (Green Cards)
Scientific structures are represented by green cards, each bearing one of three symbols: Compass, Gear, or Tablet. Points are awarded based on both the quantity of each symbol and the variety of symbols you collect.
- For each type of symbol, you score points equal to the square of the number of symbols of that type. (e.g., 3 Compasses = 3×3 = 9 points).
- Additionally, you score 7 points for each set of three different scientific symbols (one Compass, one Gear, and one Tablet).
Example: You have 3 Compasses, 2 Gears, and 1 Tablet.
- Compass points: 3 * 3 = 9
- Gear points: 2 * 2 = 4
- Tablet points: 1 * 1 = 1
- Sets of three: You have 1 set (1 Compass, 1 Gear, 1 Tablet), so 1 * 7 = 7 points.
- Total Scientific Score: 9 + 4 + 1 + 7 = 21 points.
3. Military Conflicts (Red Cards)
Military strength is tested at the end of each age. Victory tokens are awarded for winning conflicts against your neighbors, and defeat tokens for losing. These tokens translate directly into victory points:
- Age I Victory Token: +1 point each
- Age II Victory Token: +3 points each
- Age III Victory Token: +5 points each
- Defeat Token: -1 point each
Example: You have 2 Age I victory tokens, 1 Age II victory token, 1 Age III victory token, and 1 defeat token.
- Age I: 2 * 1 = 2 points
- Age II: 1 * 3 = 3 points
- Age III: 1 * 5 = 5 points
- Defeat: 1 * -1 = -1 point
- Total Military Score: 2 + 3 + 5 – 1 = 9 points.
4. Treasury Contents (Coins)
At the end of the game, any coins remaining in your treasury contribute to your score. For every 3 coins you possess, you gain 1 victory point.
Example: You have 10 coins remaining. Your Treasury score is floor(10 / 3) = 3 points.
5. Guilds (Purple Cards)
Guilds are special structures that provide victory points based on various conditions, often related to the cards or tokens in your city or your neighbors' cities. The scoring for guilds can be complex and varies greatly depending on the specific guild card. It's best to calculate these points separately during the game's end-scoring phase and then input the total.
Example: You have a Builders Guild (2 points per Wonder Stage built by you and your neighbors) and a Scientists Guild (2 points per green card in your city and your neighbors). After calculating, these guilds give you a total of 12 points.
6. Wonder Stages
Each Wonder board has stages that can be built. Many of these stages provide a fixed number of victory points upon completion. Sum up the points from all completed stages of your Wonder.
Example: Your Wonder has three stages, providing 3, 5, and 7 points respectively. If you complete all three, your Wonder Stages score is 3 + 5 + 7 = 15 points.
