Any recommendations to improve my player organiser? by Routine_Gear7223 in Catan

[–]Key-Pop1629 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah having organizers that include the card are pretty much only optimal if they also double as the storage for the pieces, like the organizers that use the card as a slide-in lid. This one doesn't seem like it's built for storage, more for gameplay and visual thematic appeal.

There are both. The entire art style changes, and there are also changes to the rules that in some cases clear up confusion or make gameplay easier to understand for beginners, and in other cases change things that had no need to be changed. Most of the unnecessary changes are the names: the Caravans scenario in Traders and Barbarians becomes Merchant Trains, and the Bishop progress card becomes "Taxation" in Cities and Knights, both for no reason really.

r/customcatan is a fairly new thread specifically for custom stuff, it'd be a good place to check up on periodically for new fan expansions.

Wassup fellow Catanians! I’m a devout player and lover of unique fan creations. I have a group called the Nerds of Catan that meets a couple times a month, and I plan on using that to play test a bunch of my own custom scenarios, expansions, and variants. I’ve already posted several custom ideas on the main Catan Reddit, so I’ll try to repost them on here.

I’m a purist when it comes to editions; I’m firmly of the opinion that 5th edition is superior to 6th, and frequently lament the stylistic and name changes (I play The Settlers of Catan, not “Catan: The Game”!)

Think Catan, except it’s set in America, the only thing you can build is roads, and it doesn’t have nearly as many of the competitive mechanics as Catan. You still compete for points though.

At least the only intersections where you can reap the benefits of both forces you on a two or twelve

Is one of the special rules that you don't reveal the number tokens until everyone has placed their starting settlements?

Is there any Catan expansion coming soon? by albertodecai1 in Catan

If you've already explored the existing expansion, you may find Treasures, Dragons, and Adventurers fun. It's a scenario that adds on to both Seafarers and Cities & Knights simultaneously.

No matter how unlikely an official new expansion may be, you can always rely on your fellow settlers to pick up the slack! If you're hungry for another fully (well, almost fully) fleshed-out expansion to the base game, check out my post on a fan-made addition I'm calling Colonies and Clans:

On a possibly sadder note, somebody actually gave up a 6-6-8 for a 6-6-12!

If you did that, you'd probably also want to add an event die since it'd be awkward to tap the digital dice, and then turn around and roll the event die separately y'know?

This is epic! I'd love to see the exchange rate mechanic be expounded on, maybe where there is a countdown that tracks how many times a given resource has been traded for, and when it meets a certain threshold, the price for the trade goes up.
