## Description
Carcassonne: 4 Seasons – The Autumn is an expansion that brings the charm of harvest season to the classic tile-laying game. With 12 new thematic tiles, you can mix them with the base game to expand the playing field or use them as a standalone mini-expansion. Autumn in Carcassonne is time to tend farms and stables - whenever you place an autumn tile, you score 2 points for each adjacent rural property. And there's more: each season in the series includes a special statue tile that lets you place two meeples in different areas when adjacent. A simple yet strategic addition that makes your countryside moves even more valuable!

## FAQ
### Do I need other expansions to play this?
No, it works perfectly with just the base Carcassonne game.

### How many players can participate?
2 to 5, just like the original game - the expansion doesn't change player count.

### Are the new rules complicated?
They're super simple! Basically, you score extra points for farms next to autumn tiles.

### Is it worth it if I already have other expansions?
Yes, it's compatible with all of them and adds a unique rural area mechanic.

### Can I play with just the new tiles?
Technically yes, but it's very limited - best to mix with the base game.
