Catan: Traders & Barbarians Board Game Expansion

Description

This expansion is not a standalone game. Requires the CATAN base gameto play.

While expansion is the hallmark of Seafarers and Cities & Knightsstands out because of its intricacy, Traders & Barbarians is characterizedby variation.

Well-tried variants such as CATAN Event Cards, Harbormaster, and Catan forTwo offer alternatives for customizing the game to your own needs. In addition,the 2-player variant allows you to play the Base Game as well as all scenariosof this expansion against only one opponent.

Over the course of a campaign with five scenarios, the story is told of howthings develop on Catan after the first settlements and cities are built.

As the Fishermen of Catan we experience how fishing not only adds to the menubut also opens up completely new tactical possibilities.

In the second scenario, The Rivers of Catan, the rivers prove to be truelifelines. If you build roads and settlements adjacent to the rivers, you caneasily make a fortune. If you arrive too late, you may well become a poorsettler and have a hard time trying to get rid of this disadvantage.

In the third scenario, nomads have settled in the oasis. Since they arelacking wool and grain, they send out caravans to barter for the covetedresources. Of course, everybody wants to profit from the Caravans, but sendingthe caravans to one’s own settlements isn't all that easy.

Catan’s wealth doesn’t go unnoticed. And thus it doesn’t take longuntil the Barbarian Attack descends upon Catan’s coasts. Now it is imperativethat the Catanians close ranks and train knights. The knights rally forbattle – not altogether selflessly, because each captured barbarian is worthhalf a victory point.

The last scenario is titled Traders & Barbarians. The barbarians havebeen driven off, and now it’s time to repair the damage. Soon,Catan’s roads and paths are bustling with baggage trains – marble andglass must be delivered to the castle, sand to the glassworks, and tools to themarble quarry. Successfully carrying out a delivery is awarded with a victorypoint and gold. Unfortunately, some scattered barbarians interrupt the smoothflow of the transports…
