In addition to the above printable materials, other objects need to be obtained:

These can be bought from local game shops or ordered online. Two examples of web stores that have a good selection are https://www.spelspul.nl/gb/ and https://www.spielematerial.de/en/. Please note this is not an exhaustive list, and we do not intend to promote these websites exclusively
