Die Siedler von Catan: Renaissance in der Steiermark & Burgbau auf Chaffenberch

Description

--- The Österreichische Spiele Museum presents two Settlers of Catan scenarios at Essen 2007: Renaissance in der Steiermark for inter-city trading and Burgbau auf Chaffenberch for castle prestige via knight tournaments. Key mechanics include: - *Renaissance in der Steiermark* Players trade resources and money between the cities of Augsburg, Vienna, Budapest, and Venice. - *Burgbau auf Chaffenberch* Players build on a castle to gain prestige; knights participate in tournaments where the starter receives resources and the winner earns victory points; game ends when a player reaches 13 points on their turn. The Österreichische Spiele Museum introduces two new scenarios for Settlers of Catan at Essen 2007. "Renaissance in der Steiermark," designed by Stefan Risthaus, enables players to engage in trading of resources and money across the historic cities of Augsburg, Vienna, Budapest, and Venice, expanding the base game's economic interactions. In contrast, "Burgbau auf Chaffenberch" focuses on castle construction to accumulate prestige, where players deploy knights in tournaments: the player initiating the tournament gains resources, while the victorious knight's owner secures victory points. The scenario concludes immediately when any player achieves 13 victory points at the start of their turn, emphasizing strategic timing and competition in prestige-building. ---
