Catan Die Legende der Eroberer

New scenarios for Städte & Ritter

As usual, you want to accumulate victory points and build roads and settlements. For a city next to a commodity hex you now earn a specific trade card for wool, wood or ore for use to develop cities: Paper for wood advances culture, cloth for wool brings economic progress and money for ore enhances political influence, all in the form of action cards that can be a deciding factor in the game. Knights are activated with commodities; knights can block trade routes, keep back foreign knights, chase off robbers and stop the barbarians. These barbarians sail the waters along the coasts of Catan and the city builders muss display enough military power to defend Catan against the Barbarians. A player not sufficiently involved in providing defense risks loss of a city; the player using the most knights receives a victory point.

In Legenden der Eroberer, based on the Städte & Ritter expansion, a powerful empire from the Old World threatens freedom and independence of Catan. All rules of Catan and the Städte & Ritter expansion apply with some changes: There are tracks on Chapter boards for the Barbarian ship - with various events per chapter - and for heroes - for victory points depending on the marker location. Resources are taken after an event is resolved. There are introductory stories and special rules for each chapter. Chapters are played in sequence; at the end of a chapter, you must have achieved requested results for starting the next chapter. After completion of all chapters you win with most legend points.

A special treat for all fans due to highly strategic and challenging in this so far most demanding expansion for Catan.
