Now that I have played the game once, and THEN read the rules and carefully examined the pieces..

We missed a few things. First, in scoring, Legendary Weapons are worth four victory points each; this is listed on page 19, and at the bottom of the score card .  Second, you don’t have to declare a quest when you start down a temple track. To the contrary, you can actually complete more than one quest at the same time; note the word “both” under the first bullet point under “Exploring Temples” on page 15 of the rules. Third, red goblins turn green immediately when a meeple passes through or enters their spaces. Fourth, meeple limits per space are all over the place: Only one in goblin portals, only two of different colors in a given temple, one of each color in grottoes or at obelisks, and no limit of any kind at castles. Fifth, you get the “Idling” bonus if you have at least one meeple in ANY castle, not just your own.

Finally, I made up the following, which has all of the hard to see details written out. Having a copy of this in circulation would make things MUCH easier, I think, since the castles and temples are easy to identify from any angle or any reasonable distance. (LiveJournal has mangled the line breaks; some reformatting will likely be needed, but it should all go on one page.)
