Settlers of Catan Two Player DETAILED Description

[@michaelpeters3617]

My wife and I played a variety of different variations of 2 player Catan games. This is our favorite variation by far. It allows for strategy and a complexity not addressed in other variations. We definitely recommend this version.

[@tyturner1365]

My wife and I use almost the exact same rules except if you build a settlement next to a water tile and you have a hidden victory point in your hand like a library, chapel, market, palace, or university, you can lay it down exposing that development card and flip over the water tile to turn it into the resource hex tile which you would have the advantage to build on at that point, while losing the secrecy of a hidden victory point in your hand

This is awesome- thank you!! I bought this game for me and my partner, not realising it’s a 3-4 player game until we had unboxed it. We tried the more common version of the modified 2 player rules, but it seemed a bit too easy / simple. Really looking forward to giving this a go!

This is the best 2 player version imo. It's less faffing each turn compared to the full board 2 player versions where you move other cities and roads as well. And islands give a nice challenge to the boards

My partner and I just played this twice. Game play felt just the same as 3-4 players; I think I actually prefer playing 2 player now. Two things we had to do: -When we had a tie on victory points, the person that rolled the 7 would move the robber. If there was no tie, then we played like you said (lower victory point holder would move the "Robin Hood". -We have the new board, where the harbor pieces are a border (not tiles). If the "water tiles" blocked the harbor, we just didn't have access to it. It didn't have a negative effect on our games.

You can flip the news board border upside down and you'll get full ocean

Link to the Document please!

[@AndrewTarrFanClub]

This video says "more about lakes later" but then never says anything else about the lakes. Can you please point me to additional info on the lakes and any special rules regarding them? Thanks!

[@dubiouslycrisp]

I want to hear more about the volcanoes and earthquakes. You mentioned that you had rules about them, so tell us please! That sounds interesting.

[@MrForgetmenot1978]

where is your word.doc ? i dont see it.

[@SimonScarfe]

re: 5:24 - isn't the hex you do choose excluded by the corn port for the same reason? Or am I misunderstanding what constitutes half-ports / ocean facing ports?

[@florisvanimpe929]

I had the same idea, but it is one street further away though

[@CaptainKlepton]

Watched your video and typed out the 2 player rules in Dutch. Going to try them out tomorrow. The 2 player rules that come with the merchants and barbarian expansion just don't cut it for me.

[@daphneblake7889]

Where is the "word document" you say you provided?

[@Chubtoaster]

I want to know more about lake trading

[@pockets8548]

So do you start with one of each resource?

[@darkestraven]

Great new rules for two players at 10 I really enjoyed this game with the new rules. I'm interested in the new lake and volcano rules that sounds really cool please let us know when you have that available.

still waiting 7 year for an answer dorm thisnfuf

[@trisix99]

Wow great rules

[@itswilsonlee]

What about if they have a knight card before the Robin Hood enters the game????

[@adamlendowski9376]

This came up in my game. We defaulted back to the rules on the Knight card.

[@saeedahmedmahin1593]

Nice idea thanks liked

[@shhhirloq6388]

!!! I must know about the earthquakes

[@if1397]

Hey man really di it

[@zpeng7]

Cool!

[@WildBill99x]

Didn't like the rule where the player with fewer points controls the robber. It's like welfare for the poor. Bad idea. Had a big effect on the game, too big.
