Description

Catan Scenarios: Helpers of Catan is a mini-expansion for the base game Catan. Chances are you’re here because you love Catan. It might be over 25 years old, but it’s still going strong! These Helpers of Catan provide an extra direction to proceedings.

This mini-expansion is also compatible with Catan: Seafarers. Likewise, Catan Scenarios: Helpers of Catan also works with the Catan: 5-6 Player Extension, and Catan: Seafarers – 5-6 Player Extension.

These Helpers take the form of 10 cards, each of which is a different character. Each character has a unique special ability, such as ‘Forced Trade’ or ‘Move A Road’. The owner of this card can use this action once or twice – the decision is yours. If you use them once, you flip the tile to their ‘B’ side as a reminder. You can trade them in for one of the unclaimed Helpers. You can opt to keep them to use a second time, but then you must trade it for another Helper. As a result, you’ll always have one Helper.

The Helper called Vincent, for example, has an ability called ‘Swords to Plowshares’. Vincent lets you return a Knight card (either in your hand, or already-played) and you can build at a discount. You could either build a settlement for 1 lumber and 1 brick (so you don’t need sheep or wheat!). Or, you could upgrade a settlement to a city for 2 ore and 1 grain. (Again, a two-card discount!)

The strategy comes with deciding when and how to best utilise the Helper. Remember, there might be a more appealing Helper out there. But at the same time, the other players might be eyeing up the Helper you’re about to return to the supply! Catan Scenarios: Helpers of Catan is a fun little expansion that adds a neat extra addition of strategy into the mix.
