Monopoly Cap (Max 3 Resources): Playing a Monopoly card lets you steal a maximum of 3 resources of the chosen type from your opponent.
Remove VP Cards from Dev Deck: Removes hidden Victory Point cards entirely from the 1v1 deck. Players can no longer passively “turtle” to victory—all points must be visible on the board or earned through Special Cards (Longest Road / Largest Army).
12 VP Win Target: Sets the winning goal to 12 VP (down from 15 VP) for a faster, tighter match rhythm that avoids late-game gridlock.
