Description Edit | History

This is an expansion for The Settlers of Catan. Players can build shipping lanes, which are very similar to roads. Additionally, the game comes with many different water-hex-heavy variant setups. The American version (Mayfair) should only be used with the American base game, instead of the German one (Kosmos), because of matching components and for the same reason, the Kosmos German version should only be used with the German base game. Additionally, several different editions exist; 4th edition is the most recent. Editions should only be used with same edition, otherwise the purchase of adapter kit is required.

Part of the Catan Series.
This game requires The Settlers of Catan. Ideally, using the same publisher and edition of the game.

If these are printed on glossy photo paper they don't look too bad, just cut to size along the dark line and just above the top of shield and at right angles to the dark lines on the bottom. Makes everything the same size.
