However, they are completely worthless at the end of most games, as they aren't worth any Influence Points and are only used to resolve ties. To make matters worse, the ''Kraken'' ExpansionPack introduces Nebulis, which are ''worse'' than worthless at that point -- they cost you an IP each at the end of the game, and an additional 5 if you have the most of them!
* Downplayed in ''TabletopGame/SevenWonders'' and its two-player spinoff ''7 Wonders Duel''. Having a comfortable stack of cash is useful during the game to pay for coin costs and resources you don't have enough of. However, they are much better spent than kept, because at the end of the game they are worth very little in terms of victory points (unless you have an effect that grants extra VP for them).
