Carcassonne: 4 Seasons – The Autumn

Description

--- **<TLDR>** Autumn is a Carcassonne mini-expansion with 12 tiles focused on farms/stables scoring and a statue enabling double meeple placement on adjacent tiles. (18 words) **Key mechanics include:** - *Tile integration* Mix 12 Autumn tiles with base game; place per standard rules and add meeples normally. - *Harvest scoring* Gain 2 points immediately per farm or stable vertically, horizontally, or diagonally adjacent to placed Autumn tile. - *Statue bonus* On any tile adjacent (8 directions) to a season's statue tile, place 2 meeples in two different areas (applies to all 4 statues). The Autumn expansion, part of the illustrated 4 Seasons tile series, serves as a playing field expander or mini-expansion emphasizing Carcassonne's farms and stables during harvest. It includes 12 land tiles to shuffle into the base game deck. Upon drawing and placing an Autumn tile following usual rules—with optional meeple placement—players instantly score 2 points for each vertically, horizontally, or diagonally adjacent farm or stable. Each season features one Statue tile; when placing a tile adjacent (in any of eight directions) to any statue, the player may deploy two meeples onto that newly placed tile across two distinct areas. ---
