Description
--- "De Specialisten van Catan" (Catan's Specialists) is an expansion for The Settlers of Catan requiring Seafarers, emphasizing limited island resources and specialization bonuses. Key mechanics include: - *Island village building* Players construct villages on small islands with limited resources; starting islands lack sheep. - *Specialist trade ports* These ports become crucial for trading. - *Resource specialization* Players specialize in one or more resources, earning extra victory points and free resource cards each turn. - *Expansion dependency* Requires both The Settlers of Catan base game and CATAN: Seafarers. "De Specialisten van Catan" (Catan's Specialists) is a standalone expansion for The Settlers of Catan that necessitates the CATAN: Seafarers expansion. Players develop villages across small islands featuring constrained resource availability, with no sheep on initial islands, elevating the role of specialist trade ports. Players can further specialize in specific resources, securing additional victory points alongside complimentary resource cards every turn, introducing layers of strategic resource management and specialization within the Catan framework. ---
