Add the locations “Fruit Orchard”, “Pumpkin Patch”, and “Royal Ovens” to the list of locations.
Add “Cherry”, “Strawberry”, “Blueberry”, “Pumpkin” and “Spiced Pumpkin”, “Medley” and “Grand” to the list of pies.
Add “Input: 1 Empty Pie, Output: 1 Pumpkin Pie”, “Input: 1 Cherry Pie, 1 Blueberry Pie, 1 Strawberry Pie. Output: 1 Medley Pie.”, and “Input: 2 Pumpkin Pies. Output: 1 Spiced Pumpkin Pie” to the list of upgrades.
add the following before the last sentence of the rule “Locations”
If a Baker’s Location is the Fruit Orchard and possess at least one empty pie, when he performs the upgrade action instead of picking an upgrade he may choose to do the following (if he does so, it still counts as having performed the action, so is still ineligible to receive the free empty pie at the end of that day): spend 1 empty pie and roll a DICE3. If the result is a 1, gain a Cherry Pie. If the result is a 2, gain a Blueberry Pie, if the result is a 3, gain a Strawberry Pie.
If a Baker’s Location is the Pumpkin Patch, the upgrades “Input: 1 Empty Pie, Output: 2 Pumpkin Piesâ€, “Input: 2 Empty Pies, Output: 3 Pumpkin Pies†and “Input: 4 Empty Pies, Output: 4 Pumpkin Pies” all become available to that Baker when choosing an upgrade for the upgrade action. .
If a Baker’s Location is the Royal Ovens, the upgrade “Input: 1 Medley Pie, 1 Dutch Apple Pie, 1 Spiced Pumpkin Pie: Output: 1 Grand Pie” becomes available to that Baker when choosing an upgrade for the upgrade action. .
in the rule “Locations” replace
If a Baker’s Location is the Creamatorium, the upgrades “Input: 1 Apple Pie, Output: 2 Cream Pies†and “Input: 1 Dutch Apple Pie, Output: 4 Cream Pies†both become available to that Baker when choosing an upgrade for the upgrade action.

If a Baker’s Location is the Creamatorium, when he performs the upgrade action instead of picking an upgrade he may choose to do the following (if he does so, it still counts as having performed the action, so is still ineligible to receive the free empty pie at the end of that day):
Spend 1 Apple, Pumpkin, Cherry, Strawberry or Blueberry Pie and receive 2 Cream Pies.
Spend 1 Dutch Apple Pie and receive 4 Cream Pies
Spend 1 Spiced Pumpkin Pie and receive 5 Cream Pies
Spend 1 Medley Pie and receive 9 Cream Pies
Spend 1 Grand Pie and receive 20 Cream Pies.
(note that in order to spend these pies, the Baker must possess at least one of the pie he is spending)
In the rule “Pie Quota” replace
Whenever a Baker has more than 10 Pies of a certain flavor, the number of their Pies of that flavor is set to 10.
A Baker cannot have more than 20 Pies in total. If performing some action would result in at least one Baker having more than 20 Pies, that action may not be performed.

Whenever a Baker has more than 10 Pies of a certain flavor, the number of their Pies of that flavor is set to 10. Cream pies are an exception to this rule, a Baker may have up to 20 cream pies. Whenever a Baker has more than 20 cream pies, the number of their Cream Pies is set to 20.
A Baker cannot have more than 20 non Cream Pies in total. If performing some action would result in at least one Baker having more than 20 non Cream Pies, that action may not be performed.
Pumpkin and Apple are designed to be similar but also different. You need more Pumpkin pies to upgrade to Spiced Pumpkin, but you can get Pumpkin pies faster if you have an empty pie stockpile, but also you need two to make a spiced pumpkin pie instead of one.
Fruit pies are designed to encourage trading, as you can’t just got “Get a Blueberry, get a strawberry, get a cherry, medley them”. There is also the mechanic of wanting to encourage friends to say, have one guy picking pumpkins, another apples, another fruit and then trading with each other to help get grand pies.
quotas modified to make it worthwhile to cream a grand pie.
GreyWithAnE:
Lifting the cap on Cream Pies makes me too nervous here, but I like everything else. If my “Just a Little Change” passes then I’m definitely a Yes for this one. But for now I withhold judgment.
