Status

Status is one of the three primary resources, Gold and Research being the other two.

Sources of Status
The main sources of Status are Campaign and Secret tokens, and to a lesser degree Encounter tokens (because they are usually less frequent). Treasure Hunt tokens also grant a small amount of Status. Research tokens can be upgraded to generate Status with Suh Min-Jeongs campfire card, as can Collect tokens with Harrys. Discoverys can be upgraded to grant Status with Suh Min-Jeongs captain perk as well, when purchasing Diplomat helpers.

Uses of Status
The main use of Status is aquiring Entourage in halls on the world map.

Status Expeditions
Viking Landing and Hungary are heavily focused on Campaign and Secret tokens.
