Abundant August

We begin a new month of Catan and it is a Special Rule Month. This month is “Abundant August” as a most of the rules give you resources. Albeit sometimes at the expense of the others. Will are also experimenting with a different board as we will have some games with 7 participants. Should make for an interesting month.


Rules for this Month

If you roll 1-1-1 (value of 1 and 2 ) you get to call your rule.

40 : LOVE – You have to win by 2 victory points. (You are able to win on a special build)

And the winner is... - player grabs a card from the random resource pile

From the Jaws of Defeat – you can build a settlement or a city, only one, for 1 less resource

High Five! – all players get a card of their choice

I Feel Sorry For You – Subtract your point total from that of the leader. Collect that many resource cards from the bank. If you are tied with, or are the leader, collect 1 card.

Ore-afice – All players turn their ore into the bank.

Road Reconstruction – Player can move any road they have to a different legal place. Optional

Scare Crow – Everyone gives the roller one wheat if they have one.

The Drunken Sailor – Cap’n Hazelwood has rendered all trade ports useless due to negligence. No 2:1 or 3:1 port trades allowed for 1 round.

The Joker and the Thief – players moves robber and gets a card from all players adjacent to that tile. (City and Settlement are equal value, but if you have 2...sorry!)

We’ve Struck Oil – Deserts produce Oil (choice of card) for settlements and cities on the deserts on this turn and all 7’s rolled for 1 round.

Welfare – The player with the most points must give a resource card to the player with the least points
