LINEAGE: Print and Play Instructions
Resources for creating game piecesMany of the supplies for a decent prototype copy of LINEAGE can be found at Michaels. Thevery first prototype was made from cardboard octagons and wood pieces purchased at
Michaels Arts and Crafts stores. I’ve included alternatives in the rest of these instructionsbut rest assured these items can be found at most hobby stores.
4 inch cardboard octagons
1 ½” wooden squares¾ inch wooden blocksSharpie Paint pens (red, green, yellow, blue, silver, black, white)
Glass Stones (decorative)
Creating Player PiecesThe player pieces contain important information. If you have access to meeple, one thought
would be to tape a black meeple to a red meeple for the Tiger Master and a white meeple toa red meeple for a Tiger Student. You could also use dice. White die = Student, Black die =Master. Add a colored sticker to each die to match the color of your LINEAGE. Red = Tiger,
Blue = Dragon, Yellow = Snake, Green = Leopard, Silver = Crane.
Important information conveyed by the player pieces:1. MASTER – Black/Player Color/Plus sign on both sides
2. STUDENT – White/Player Color/Minus sign one side, Plus sign on the other3. EMPEROR – White/Circles on all sides4. GENERAL – Black/Plus signs on all sides
Glass Stones (Chi)Grabbing pieces from other games would really help here. Copies of RISK or Lords ofWaterdeep or Agricula might help. You need the following:
1. 30 red pieces2. 30 blue pieces3. 30 yellow pieces
4. 30 green pieces
5. 30 silver pieces6. 13 black pieces
Lineage MarkersUse six 4-sided die matching the color of each animal to act as LINEAGE markers.
Color vs. Grayscale PrintingColor is a big part of LINEAGE and it is highly recommended that you print the followingPDFs in color. We’ve taken care to make basic cards, squares, and octagons that use theleast amount of ink.
LINEAGE_octagons.pdfThis document includes 25 double-sided octagon tiles. Be sure not to cut the folded edge of
each octagon tile, as that will keep the fronts and backs connected. Alternately, you couldmake rigid octagon tiles by gluing the images onto chipboard or another rigid material cut tothe right shape (4” octagons measured edge to edge).
LINEAGE_squares.pdfThis document includes 36 double-sided square tiles. Be sure not to cut the folded edge of
each square tile, as that will keep the fronts and backs connected. Alternately, you could
make rigid square tiles by gluing the images onto chipboard or another rigid material cut tothe right shape (1 1/2” squares measured edge to edge).
LINEAGE_cards.pdfThis document includes 95 basic cards. If it’s something you’re not worried about losing, werecommend taping these to some kind of existing card (a poker deck or magic cards forexample). You might consider drawing a triangle on the back of season cards, a square on
the back of the direction cards, and a circle on the back of the chi cards.
