Carcassonne: The Robbers

Hey folks! Ready to spice up your Carcassonne game a bit? The 'The Robbers' expansion introduces eight brand-new tiles featuring a robber symbol. When you draw one of these, besides placing it as usual, you position your special robber meeple (yes, an extra meeple is included!) on the score track, targeting any opponent. The twist is that whenever an opponent's score marker, accompanied by a robber, moves, the robber's owner advances their own score marker half that distance (rounded up) and removes the pesky robber. It's a neat twist that adds an extra layer of interaction and a touch of 'eye for an eye' to the competition. Imagine the satisfaction of seeing your opponent score points while you hitch a ride, gaining some extra points at their expense! Of course, if multiple score markers are on the same space with a robber, you get to choose who to 'rob' next. This mini-expansion, part of the series of smaller Carcassonne expansions, is perfect for those who enjoy the base game and want a bit more flavor without overcomplicating the rules. It's a fun way to add controlled chaos and ensure no one gets too comfortable in the lead. If you love Carcassonne and want a dash of cunning, this one's for you!
