Barbarians & Traders

• Treasure Fleet - Can I conquer my game partner’s Treasure Fleet by means of a Pirate Fleet?

  No. Your Pirate Fleet always sends a Fleet of your game partner to the discard pile – not to you.

  Note: The Pirate Fleets belong to the theme sets "Knights & Merchant" and "Science & Progress", which are part of the Catan Card Game – Expansion Set.

• Triumphal Arch - Can I play the Arsonist to burn down the Triumphal Arch if a Witch is placed on it?

  No.

  Note: The Witches belong to the theme set "Wizards & Dragons", which is part of the Catan Card Game – Expansion Set.

• Triumphal Arch - How many victory points is the Triumphal Arch worth when it is built?

  None.

• Wizards Alliance - Can Action Cards that require 2 Wizards be played with 1 Wizard and 1 Wizards Alliance or with 2 Wizards Alliances?

  Yes.

• Wizards Alliance - Can I build a Wizards Alliance without having my own Citadel?

  No.

• Wizards Alliance - Can I link a Wizards Alliance to a Wizards Alliance of my game partner instead of linking it to one of his Wizards?

  No.

• Wizards Alliance - Does a single Wizards Alliance also increase the value of a Citadel to 2 victory points?

  Yes.

• Wizards Alliance - Does my Wizards Alliance continue to work if the “linked” Wizard of my opponent is removed?

  Yes.

• Wizards Alliance - How does the Wizards Alliance work?

  The Wizards’ Alliance is almost like a normal Wizard. It can, therefore, do everything your Wizards can do. It differs from your other Wizards because of the fact that it is “multiple” – that is, up to 4 Wizards’ Alliances can be placed – and that it starts without Magic Power.

  Note: To use the Wizards’ Alliance, you need the theme set "Wizards & Dragons", which is part of the Catan Card Game – Expansion Set.

• Wizards Alliance - If I play the Expanded Basic Game with Wizards and Dragons, can I add the two Wizards Alliances from Barbarians and Traders?

  The Wizards’ Alliances are primarily meant to be used in the Tournament Game. But if your game partner agrees, you can also use the cards in the Expanded Basic Game with Wizards & Dragons.

Trade & Change

• Calm Sea - Do I also get a resource for my opponent’s Fleets that I make use of with the help of a Trade League?

  No.

• Great Tournament - Can I distribute the 3 gold over 2 gold fields?

  No.

• Great Tournament - If the Great Tournament is rolled, do I also receive the resource of my choice I get when the dice roll event “Tournament” occurs?

  No.

• Horse Farm - Can I switch the positions of two Knights?

  No. You only can move 1 Knight to 1 empty building site.

• Horse Farm - Can I use the Horse Farm to move Flavo the Fool?

  No. Flavo is not a Knight.

  Note: Flavo the Fool belongs to the theme sets "Barbarian & Traders", which is part of the Catan Card Game – Expansion Set.
