Detailed description
• Please copy/paste the error message you see on your screen, if any.
In the supplement to the rules of Marco Polo II, it states:
------------------------------------------
Marco Polo II: In the Service of the Khan is a standalone game and is not designed with compatibility with other games in mind. You can choose to mix and match elements from other The Voyages of Marco Polo games.
The elements that combine best with In the Service of the Khan are:
• Individual characters from the original The Voyages of Marco Polo
• The New Characters mini expansion
• Companions from The Voyages of Marco Polo: Agents of Venice
Game balance may vary when playing with these options.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
Now, some of those characters do not make sense unless a particular extension is also included and many of those characters would require a bit of rewriting and hover text to explain.

Report history
* Mercator:
** 4p Whenever another player use on of the books to get goods or camels or jade, you receive one good chosen from among those earned.
** 3p Also 1 camel when the favor of the Khan is used
If Mercator proves too powerful, there are various ways to limit him:
- only applies to the first dice put on each book action
- or you must the same gold cost as the player when a dice is not the first dice played on a book action
- or you must pay the same jade cost as the player to get the good (that's probably too drastic)
* Kubilai Khan:
** Probably doesn't make sense to include him
** Possibly start in Bagdhad with a trading post and jeweler's guild seal (or a few points?) ? (but hardly thematic to Khan)
* Berke Khan:
** Straightforward
* Niccolo et Marco Polo:
** redundant with Mailin and Tian Chin and much weaker so should have to be boosted a little.
** One way to boost it is to allow player to choose one location where to start (with trading post)
** A more powerful way is to make player choose one location (get trading post) and have the other start at Beijing
** Or slightly weaker: just enforce Merw (with trading post) as starting place for both figures.
** Or make player start at beijing but give 2 camels per turn
* Guillaume de Rubrouck
** Straightforward except that those would be the 12th and 13th trading posts
** Might be underwhelming
* Johannes Caprini
** Straightforward.
