Cities & Knights of Catan (4th Edition)

Expand the classic Settlers of Catan with knights and new city improvements

This is a brilliant expansion of one of the most successful and popular strategy games of recent times and paved the way for a new generation of board games to emerge from Germany combining skill, chance, originality and balance.

Dark clouds are gathering over the peaceful island of Catan. Wild barbarians, attracted by the wealth of Catan, are sailing to attack the country. Fortunately, warning has given Catan time to meet the danger. The size of the barbarian army corresponds to the number of cities in Catan. Thus, for Catan to fend off the barbarian attack, the players must form a knight force as strong as the barbarians.

In addition to fending off the barbarians, players compete to build the three great metropolises of Catan. Each of these magnificent centres are worth two additional victory points. To build a metropolis, players must invest in city improvements. To acquire these improvements, players must gather the three new types of Trade Cards: Coinage, Paper, and Cloth. These cards can only be gained by building a city next to mountain, forest, or pasture hexes.
