(For example with a total of 14 a player, in zone Q, could build 2 units on "6" and one unit on "2" - the lower numbers setting the cost per unit.) A player can use any amount from 0 to the total of his dice. A player with the most units in a building owns that building. In case of tie the player with the lower unit wins. The game ends when one player uses up all of his units. He gets a bonus of 25 points. All players count the value - upper number - of each bldg. [building] they own. The player with the lowest total is eliminated and the others recalculate the bldgs. they own not counting the eliminated player's units. High total wins.
It played quite well and was fun.
