This expansion, Merry Men, brings five brand-new modules you can mix and match to make the game even more chaotic and hilarious. Want to play with more people? No problem, you can now invite another friend to complete the group of six players! The modules are a show in themselves. There are the 'Deputies,' who come into play in six-player games, sharing the Sheriff's job (and money!). If they disagree, the trouble is individual! The 'Merry Men' are illegal goods that, if smuggled successfully, activate special abilities that can turn the game around. The 'Black Market' adds bonus cards for those who are clever and smuggle the right items. And it doesn't stop there! The 'Laws' change the game's rules each round, forcing the Sheriff to think twice before acting. And the 'Special Orders' give you an extra objective: smuggle a specific combination of legal and illegal goods to earn bonus gold. That's a lot of new stuff to mess with your head (and your friends'!). This expansion is perfect for those who want more variety and twists in the base game, maintaining that negotiation and bluffing vibe everyone loves. ## FAQ ### Do I need the base Sheriff of Nottingham game to play Merry Men?
