Item #79950 Carcassonne: The Tower (Expansion #4)

Carcassonne: The Tower (Expansion #4)

Z-Man Games. Tile Game. New. Item #79950

With this expansion, players can capture each other's Followers! There are 18 new tiles with Tower Foundations, and there are 30 Tower Floors that players can add to a foundation or a growing tower. With each new floor, the influence of the tower grows, until someone places a Follower on top; that Follower holds the tower in the name of its player, and, depending on the number of Floors, can capture the Followers of other players on orthogonally adjacent tiles. So, if I place a Follower on the second Floor of a Tower, I can capture your Follower two tiles away! Captured Followers can be ransomed for 3 VP; otherwise, they are simply out of play and cannot be placed again or used to score victory points. That said - the Follower atop the Tower cannot be captured - and cannot be moved or removed unless eaten by a Dragon. So, there is a more than a little strategy involved in choosing when to claim a Tower! This expansion also includes a tile dispenser in the shape of a Tower; using this to draw tiles during a game cuts down on wear and tear to the tiles. Base game required for play. Best for 2-6 players aged 8 and up.
