Home / Thirty changes
The whole book on one page
Reserve any of the thirty changes to the house shape, sorted by what they cost
Thirty changes, each one a part of the house shape taken out and replaced. The mark beside every figure says how far that change takes you from the shape, and the words beside the mark say it too. Reserve any of the thirty changes to the house shape from this page.
Every figure is a starting amount for two sharing, and it stops being a starting amount only when the supplier puts a confirmed one in writing.
Two parts of the shape can usually be changed together, three begins to cost more than either change is worth, and the office will say which case you are in.
