Description
--- Twelve Additional Tiles is a Carcassonne expansion with 12 new tiles, including 2 river variants and unique features like a 4-road cloister and field-only tile. Key mechanics include: - *River tiles* Two special tiles: a spring with attached road and a river between two cities. - *Cloister tile* A cloister surrounded by 4 roads. - *Field-only tile* Contains solely a field; official ruling grants no special abilities, but popular variant awards 1 point bonus per adjacent city at endgame for the winning farmer (pig farm). - *Additional tiles* 10 other previously unseen tiles to expand gameplay variety. Twelve Additional Tiles provides 12 new tiles for the Carcassonne series, comprising 2 river tiles—a spring with an attached road and a river segment between two cities—plus 10 other novel tiles. Highlights include a cloister encircled by 4 roads and a unique field-only tile, which officially has no special abilities but features a popular variant interpreting its pig farm as granting the controlling farmer 1 bonus point per touching city at game end. Published in Games Quarterly magazine, Issue #11 (2006), this set enhances tile-laying strategic depth without altering core rules. ---
