Scythe: Digital Edition – Each Faction’s Starting Resource Hexes

Most of the Factions start with access to only three hexes, until they can build a tunnel or can cross rivers. (Nordic workers can bypass rivers and have more flexibility, while Albion and Togawa are not land-locked.) This is just a simple reference document detailing what hexes are available at the beginning for the core factions.

Might add a list of useful player mats paired with Factions in the future.
