What is an appeal to the gods?

Your first group begins as your most powerful and important group. In addition, should you earn your Early Strategic Objective or qualify for an Appeal to the Gods (Epic Game only) there are possible awards that only go into your first group (see General Rules).

What is an Epic game?

thanks

Appeal to the Gods had been removed long ago. it used to be a way to try and recover if you were in a bad position compared to others. I believe it was a manual process so made for extra work that was not really worth the added benefit.

Gotcha - FYI it is still listed on the turn 0 setups so I figured id ask -- in a few games i could have used it
