Description
Carcassonne: Die Belagerer is an exciting expansion for the popular board game Carcassonne, designed by Christwart Conrad and Klaus-Jürgen Wrede. Released in 2013, this mini-expansion adds a new layer of strategy to the game, allowing players to lay siege to cities. The rules are easy to learn, making it accessible to new players, while the new mechanics add a fresh twist for experienced players. With its tile placement and area majority mechanics, Carcassonne: Die Belagerer challenges players to think creatively about how to build and defend their cities. In this expansion, a besieged city that is completed yields only one point per tile, instead of the usual two, adding a new level of complexity to the game. However, if the city contains a cathedral, each tile is worth two points instead of their normal value, giving players a chance to earn extra points. The farming peasants also play a crucial role, as each completed besieged city counts twice for them in the endgame scoring. With its medieval theme and territory building mechanics, Carcassonne: Die Belagerer is a great addition to the Carcassonne series, offering a new and exciting way to play the game.
