Description
--- "Santa Variant from Brettspiel Adventskalender 2015 (Day 1)" boosts wool's strategic value in Catan by allowing players to move Santa via wool payments for gifts, robber removal, and hex protection. Key mechanics include: - *Wool expenditure* Players give Santa wool on their turn to move him to a Catan hex. - *Gift distribution* Santa provides Christmas gifts to settlers upon arriving at a hex. - *Robber displacement* Santa can chase away the robber from the hex. - *Hex protection* Santa may protect the hex from threats. - *Resource revaluation* Elevates wool from the least attractive commodity in the base game. - *Player compatibility* Add-on for up to 6 players and expansions featuring the robber. - *Character variants* Replaces Santa with Easter Bunny, Fenni the Sheep, or 999 Games' Joker using identical rules. Santa Variant from Brettspiel Adventskalender 2015 (Day 1) is a Catan add-on scenario where Santa requires wool for coats, enabling players to relocate him to any island hex by donating wool on their turn. Upon arrival, he bestows Christmas gifts on settlers, potentially expels the robber, and offers hex protection, thereby enhancing wool's strategic importance over its lesser role in the basic game. Designed as a versatile variant for up to 6 players across all robber-inclusive expansions, it maintains core rules while permitting substitutions like the Easter Bunny, Fenni the Sheep, or 999 Games' Joker without alterations. ---
