Just a few weeks after the first expansion ("Inns & Cathedrals"), we are happy to introduce the second expansion for Carcassonne: Traders & Builders.
This expansion adds 24 new tiles to the base game, and three new rules:
1. The Pig is a new piece you can place on a field where you already have a meeple. It gives you +1 per city scored whith this field (but does not count for majorities).
2. The Builder is another new piece you can place on a city/road where you already have a meeple. When you extend a city/road with a builder on it, you get an extra turn. Note that builders do not count for majorities.
3. Some city tiles have one good (wine/cloth/wheat) on them. When you place a tile to finish a city, you earn the goods displayed on the city (even if you don't own any meeple on this city). At the end of the game, for each type of good, the player(s) with the most goods of that type get an additional +10 points.
We'd like to thank again all Carcassonne players here on BGA who have contributed to make this Carcassonne adaptation such a great success, allowing us to introduce this new expansion. If you continue to play here, we will very likely be able to add more expansions in the future!
Enjoy!
