How do I set up the game with two tiles?
Quick answer
With 2 players, take 32 Tiles of an unused (third) color and place them face-down on all spaces marked with the yellow hex icon before starting normal setup.
Details
Step 5 of Scotland setup specifies that in a 2‑player game you use a spare, unused color's Tiles (32 of them) purely as "blockers." These are placed face‑down on every space that shows the yellow hex icon on the board, occupying those spaces for the whole game so the smaller player count still fills the board appropriately [p.2 — SETUP].
After placing these neutral blocker Tiles, you continue with the rest of setup as normal: each player takes their own color's Clan Board, Castles, Cathedrals, and Scoring Achievement, then collects their own Tiles, shuffles them, sets aside 2 face-down on their Clan Board (unused this game), and draws 1 starting Tile to their hand [p.2 — SETUP].
Watch out: This "32 neutral Tiles on yellow-hex spaces" rule applies only to the 2-player game. In 3- and 4-player games, no third-color Tiles are used — instead, in a 4-player game each player privately removes 6 Tiles (3 Energy Farm, 3 Food Farm, and one Settlement Tile of each value 2, 3, and 4) from their own supply before playing [p.2 — SETUP]. If your question meant something else (e.g., how many Tiles each player draws, or how blank/spare Tiles are used), let me know and I can clarify further.
