This pattern is a still a stub.

=== Examples ===
[[Ticket to Ride]]

[[Small World]]

[[Showmanager]]

[[Atlantic Star]]

[[Dominant Species]]

[[Thunderstone]] 

== Using the pattern ==
[[Randomness]]

[[Discard Piles]] may be used as [[Drafting Spreads]] - basic [[Rummy]] uses this in a limited sense (only the last played [[Cards|Card]] can be taken) but a common variant is to use the entire [[Discard Piles|Discard Pile]] as a [[Drafting Spreads|Drafting Spread]].

[[Drafting Spreads]] can cause player imbalances since the first players with access to them is more likely to have good choices than later players. This can be regulated through having an additional cost for accessing elements further ''down'' in the spreads as a [[Balancing Effects|Balancing Effects]]; [[Showmanager]] and [[Small World]] has this through requiring [[Money]] to be spent (and in [[Small World]] this [[Money]] is placed on the skipped races and can be collected in later drafts) while [[Thunderstone]]  imposes "darkness penalties" for attacking [[Enemies]] deeper down in the dungeon.
