Product Details
Note: You need a Catan base game in order to play with this expansion.
In this expansion, three new commodities are introduced into the game: paper, cloth, and coins - which are acquired from Forest, Meadow and Mountain spaces, respectively. These commodities allow players to build city improvements that give various advantages and potentially points.
The deck of development cards is replaced by three decks that each correspond to a commodity. These cards are similar to the development cards in the base game, but with a wider range of effects.
Finally, players can also build knights on the island along their network of roads. These knights can be used to claim certain intersections and move the Robber, and are also used to defend the island from periodic barbarian attacks.
