This is not a stand alone game, you require The Settlers of Catan (core game) to play.Dark clouds are gathering over the peaceful island of Catan. Wild barbarians, attracted by the wealth of Catan, sailed 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 barbarian force.In addition to fending off the barbarians, players compete to build the three great metropolises of Catan. Each of these magnificent centers are worth two additional victory points. To build a metropolis, players must invest in city improvements. To acquire these improvements, players must acquire 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.Game Info:* 2 to 4 players* recommended for ages 10 and up* 60 to 90 minutes estimated time to playGame Contents:* 36 commodity cards inlcuding coin, paper and cloth* 54 progress cards, including trade, politics and science* 6 victory point cards* 3 wooden metropolis pieces* 3 metropolis tokens* 1 wooden merchant figure* 1 custom event die* 1 wooden barbarian ship* 24 wooden knights and 2 mighty knights for each of the four player colours* 12 city walls* 4 development flip charts for keeping track of city improvements* 1 sea frame piece with spaces for moving the barbarian fleet* Colour rules and almanacPlease note: not recommended for children under 5 years of age as small parts may be inhaled or swallowed.
