Pay attention to the following: - At the start of the game you should make sure you have enough mining rights tiles. Alternatively you can make sure you have enough gold via clever buying and selling. - Jewelry is worth valuable victory points, but buying it too soon can make it difficult to get enough mining rights tiles and thus difficult to replace the spent gems. On the other hand, there are not many high-value cards coming into the game during its later stages. - If you buy an artifact then you should try to make good use of its benefit. - An Emeromobile is only useful if you are planning to buy (4) gemstones often enough. You will of course need enough gold for that, which is usually more likely when a gemstone has a relatively low current price – which itself is usually more likely when many of that gemstone type have been mined. - An early Gnomunculus purchase lets you carry out an extra action over the course of the entire game. If, however, you end up using that extra action to take 4 gold most of the time, then buying something else (an Alchemister, for example) may make more sense.
