From BGG ...

The Avalon Hill edition is a one to four player game, featuring the Spanish (green counters), French (blue counters), English (pink counters) and Portuguese (yellow counters). This edition of the game was published in 1982 with a mounted map in a bookcase box. The "Fur Traders & Buccaneers" variant in The GENERAL Vol.21 No.5 added counters and rules for Dutch, Danish, and slave units.

• About the Conquistador Module:
  • Conquistador 1.1 includes everything in version 1.0 but fixes the following:
    • 'map follows opponents move' problem.
    • I believe you should be able to use 1.0 saved files with version 1.1 as there are no changes to the game pieces, map, artwork or traits. I have not tested this however. Like explorers to the new world, if you go there, please let me know.
  • Conquistador 1.0 includes the following features:
    • Three versions of the map are included
      • - The original (but graphically enhanced) version
      • - A bonus map with alternate interpretations per the For God & the King rules

      • - Bonus German Bankers Scenario per the "For God and the King" variant
      • - Bonus 2, 3, and 4 player scenarios per the "Fur Traders and Buccaneers"
    • Vassal Module functionality
