my search-fu fails me tonight and so i bring my question here. so i have noticed that the city tiles have differing symbols in the 4 locations on them, so when we gather support should we go by whatever is pictured on the tile itself, or by what the rule book says should be in that area?
City tile question
The rulebook has pictures of the "mis-printed" city tiles. If you're using the replacement city tiles, then you're using the correct tiles. Just follow the icons on those tiles, and not the icons on the tiles in the rulebook. The rules for the cities in the rulebook are correct.

As mentioned, use the non-misprinted City tiles. The rulebook's image actually unfortunately shows the misprinted version. I'd have to look at my City tile to be sure of the order, but the four symbols are:
- Neutral recruting. This will be a featureless circle, rectangle, or triangle with a number in it. This allows you to recruit Neutrals of the specified type and number. (Note that one of the Circle's has a 0 in it; this is just saying you cannot recruit neutrals here)
- Tactics cards. The symbol is a picture of a tactics card back, with a number; you could choose to draw that many tactics cards
- Influence. The symbol looks like an Influence token, with a number. You could choose to draw that much influence.
- Quest. The symbol looks like the back of the Quest cards. You could draw the number of quest cards listed, and make sure you discard down to 3 quests.
thankyou all for the help!!
Some of my city tiles have the back of hero cards printed in the 3rd position (normally influence). Should I take this to be a mis-print and just use influence insteador should players receive 3 hero's from these special cities?

No, that means you are using the wrong set of city tiles. The correct set not only has the correct icon, but the numbers are different as well.
Your game should have come with a cardboard sheet with a replacement Latari Elves faction sheet (it's the same as the "misprint", except the starting Food is 2 and starting Wood is 3, to match their home realm) and 7 replacement City tokens.

There should be 7 (I think) cities in total. If you have something like 14 cities floating around it means you forgot to throw out the misprinted ones. To help you sort them, each city picture is unique - you should not have any two cities with the same picture. Just make sure you keep the one that has the right symbols around the edges. =)
