General info and comments

Tile sheet

Easter in Carcassonne was released by HiG in 2014. It was the 1st official PnP expansion.
Original design by Fritz_Spinne.

This is a Carcassonne fan-expansion to make yourself. This expansion is not for sale and may not be used for commercial purposes. Together with the diligent idea creator, HiG made this download version available to all who have fun with self-made expansion.


The tiles and rules files published by HiG are available here:

Easter Nest symbol
  
Easter Bunny symbol
  • 22 new landscape tiles (10 with an Easter Nest and 12 with an Easter Bunny)
Easter Nest tile
Easter Bunny tile
  • 1 Easter bunny figure [1]
  • Numerous Easter eggs, preferably made of chocolate (we recommend at least 2 packets of smaller, sweeter, Easter eggs) [2]
  • 1 special die marked 1, 1, 2, 2, 3, 3 (e.g. from Mini #1 - The Flier (Flying Machines)) [3]

Rules

Preparation

Shuffle the new landscape tiles with the other land tiles. Place the Easter bunny, the Easter eggs and the die aside within easy reach of all players.

Gameplay

1. Placing a tile

The tiles are placed according to normal Carcassonne rules.
As soon as a player places an Easter Bunny tile, the player immediately places the Easter bunny figure on it. It does not matter where the player places the bunny, but he may not block any feature.

2. Placing a follower

After placing the bunny, the player may place a follower on the tile just placed according to the usual rules. [4]

3. Scoring a feature

If one or more regular features (e.g. a road, a city, a monastery...) are completed by the placement of a tile, they are scored according to the usual rules.

Logo EasterCarcassonneNest C1.png Easter Nest: If a player completely surrounds the Easter Nest by placing a tile, a scoring for that Easter Nest follows the Scoring Phase. [5] Surrounding means here the same as for a monastery, so the Easter Nest must be surrounded by 8 tiles.
No title defined

No rules defined.

Logo EasterCarcassonneBunny C1.png Easter Bunny: After the turn in which an Easter Bunny tile is placed, the game is briefly interrupted for an Easter Bunny phase. After this phase, it is the turn of the next player in clockwise order as usual.
No title defined

No rules defined.

Rules adaptation

If no die from the expansion Mini #1 - The Flier (Flying Machines) is available, a regular six-sided die can also be used. In this case, the Easter bunny figure moves 1 tile for rolls 1-2, 2 tiles for 3-4 and 3 tiles for 5-6.

Final scoring

In the final scoring, no Easter eggs will be awarded to the followers of an unfinished Easter Nest area. The Easter bunny figure will not play a role in the final scoring either.

The player with the most Easter eggs gets 10 points. The player with the second most Easter eggs gets 5 points. In the event of a tie, all players receive the corresponding points.

CAUTION!!!!: Only the Easter eggs that have not yet been eaten count. After the final scoring all Easter eggs should be eaten at your own risk...

Other expansions

Exp. 1 - Inns & Cathedrals:

The big follower only gets one Easter egg.


Exp. 2 - Traders & Builders:

The special figures Builder and Pig go away empty-handed when the eggs are distributed.


Exp. 3 - The Princess & the Dragon:

The dragon eats the Easter bunny figure (a dragon can't miss that). [6] The bunny can be on the same tile as the fairy. [7] If an Easter Nest is completed with a dragon tile, the movement of the bunny takes place after the dragon has been moved, if it is still on the tile.


Exp. 4 - The Tower:

The tower does not capture the Easter bunny figure. A follower on the tower also gets an egg as a gift.


Exp. 5 - Abbey & Mayor:

The wagon and the mayor receive an egg, but the barn does not.


Exp. 6 - Count, King & Robber:

No follower from the city of Carcassonne can be deployed when scoring a completed Easter Nest. Even a heretic at a place of cult receives an egg.


Exp. 7 - The Catapult:

If an Easter Nest is completed with a catapult tile, the scoring of the Easter Nest takes place after the catapult round.


Exp. 8 - Bridges, Castles & Bazaars:

A follower on a bridge receives an Easter egg. Completing an Easter Nest does not trigger the scoring of a castle. The bazaar round is carried out after the scoring of Easter Nests.


Exp. 9 - Hills & Sheep:

Even the shepherd receives an Easter egg, although it is not a follower! The hills and vineyards do not affect the distribution of the eggs.


Mini #4 - The Goldmines:

The completion of an Easter Nest does not cause the distribution of gold pieces.


Mini #5 - Mage & Witch:

The Mage and the Witch do not affect the distribution of the Easter eggs, the Easter bunny figure can be on the same tile with any of them.
