CATAN is born - a beautiful island with mountains, pastures, hills, fields, and forests, surrounded by the sea.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan class=\"shortcutted center\"\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/www.catan.com\/files\/pageimages\/dye_catan_150407_0564.jpg\" alt=\"The Settlers of Catan - Game Board\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEach of us places two small houses on spaces where three terrain hexes meet. They are our starting settlements.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAnd so it begins. I roll two dice. An “11”! Each terrain hex is marked with a die roll number. Each player who owns a settlement adjacent to a terrain hex marked with the number rolled receives a resource produced by this hex. Hills produce brick, forests produce lumber, mountains produce ore, fields produce grain, and pastures produce wool.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWe use these resources to expand across CATAN: we build roads and new settlements, or we upgrade our existing settlements to cities. For example, a road costs 1 brick and 1 lumber. If we do not have the necessary resources, we can acquire them by trading with our opponents.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEach settlement is worth 1 victory point and each city is worth 2 victory points. If you expand cleverly, you may be the first player to reach 10 victory points and thus win the game!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Asmodee","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49361272471775,"sku":"29877030712","price":89.99,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0677\/1192\/6495\/files\/The-Game-Store_1_1024x_9abffe24-f088-4886-968e-58d125d66a28.webp?v=1779513734","url":"https:\/\/www.cardmerchantsilverdale.co.nz\/products\/catan-trade-build-settle","provider":"Card Merchant Silverdale","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
