Is spyglasses like build token(need to combine with something before active), or it will open next land of my choise but with no option to open with gold first?
You don't have a choice like the building tokens It's automatic in that sense U won't have a gold using option
You'll get the first lands you attempt to unlock for free... That way you cant save them and use smartly on more expensive lands.
It's actually very clever, it helps somewhat to bridge the gap between hfbc and hlbc players, providing they plan accordingly they can save (like myself) the prices of last 3 hf, that's like what, 2t?
