The Rivals for Catan Strategy Card Game

Description: Not quite a card game in the traditional sense, Rivals for Catan is more of a board game created and played with cards. Each player begins with a "principality" consisting of resource fields (ore, wool, hills, forest, gold, and grain), settlements (worth victory points and allow you to construct more buildings), and roads (which allow you to build additional settlements) which are organized in a grid-like fashion in front of him or her. Similar to the standard game, a die is rolled to determine which resources are produced at the beginning of each turn; however, an event die is also rolled, incurring brigand attacks, improved harvests, and more. Each player is also allowed an "action phase" to play building & action cards from their hand, which can give long-term and temporary bonuses; and build settlements, roads, and cities. Resources can also be traded to the bank, but not your opponent. The end goal is to have as many victory points as the given scenario calls for through settlements, cities, trade, and strength advantages. Three "themes" are included, each introducing new concepts and adding challenges to the game. Once players have mastered each theme, the scenario "The Duel of the Princes" can be played, incorporating all event cards and extending replayability even further! For 2 players. 45-60 minutes.
