The third major expansion to Catan. Merchants & Barbarians contains 4 variants on Catan and 5 new challenging scenarios, which can be combined to a greater or lesser extent with each other and with The Mariners and Cities and Knights. This expansion set can only be combined with the latest edition of the base game (the 2012 edition with the plastic parts). For example, we find a harbor master who rewards players with settlements at harbor locations with points. Or a friendly highwayman who, à la Robin Hood, only robs the rich. For those who are less lucky, there is the 'Events on Catan' variant, in which the dice are replaced by a balanced pack of cards. At the request of players all over the world, there is also a variant where you can play the basic game with two players. However, the bulk of the manual consists of describing five completely new scenarios, sorted by difficulty. From the simple 'Fishermen of Catan', via 'The Trek' to the final scenario 'Merchants & Barbarians', which in terms of level is not inferior to the spicy 'Cities & Knights'. Merchants & Barbarians offers a collection of new elements to make Catan a completely new gaming experience.

That makes you an emperor, which gives you the right to your own chair, and you can name a salad after yourself. It's not easy being emperor. The day starts early when you light the sacred fire, after which you have to meet for hours to find out why the sacred fire keeps going out.
