General info and comments
Originally released by CundCo in 2018 during Essen Spiel.
With this mini-expansion, you'll send your Meeples to the barber surgeon's. A bathhouse had several purposes during the Middle Ages. You could take a bath sharing the latest gossip as well as you could enjoy a highly professional medical treatment. Of course, your Meeple will be enjoying his time in the bathhouse, so he won't be able to help you. To get him back there are various possibilities...
Contents
- 6 new Land tiles with bathhouses.
Rules
Preparation
Shuffle the 6 Bathouses tiles and take as many as needed according to the number of players.
Now shuffle the right number of Bathhouse tiles with the rest of the Land tiles. Put the unneeded Bathhouses tiles back into the box. This expansion has been developed for the Carcassonne basic game. All of the rules remain the same.
On the one hand, you can score more points when scoring cities or roads with bathhouses. On the other hand, Meeples can be attracted by bathouses forcing them to stay there.
Getting a bathhouse points
1. Placing a tile
When you draw a Bathhouse tile, you place it according to the normal rules.
Placing a meeple
Initiate scoring with bathhouse
Visiting a bathouse after scoring
1. Placing a tile
When you draw a Bathhouse tile, you place it according to the normal rules.
Placing a meeple
Meeple placement is not affected in this scenario.
Scoring a feature
If there is only one single Meeple involved in a scoring and if there is at least one free bathhouse, you have to place your Meeple sideways in one of the free bathhouse (or in the only free bathhouse) immediately after the scoring. You score as usual.
Respect the following rules:
- A bathhouse is free if there is no Meeple in it.
- If there are several free bathhouses, you can choose in which one you want to place your Meeple.
- If there are several Meeples involved in the scoring, you get all Meeples back (even if all Meeples belong to one player).
- If there is no free bathhouse, you get your Meeple back.
- If there are several scoring caused by one single Land tile you have to look at one scoring at a time. The player who has placed the Land tile decides in which order the scoring are carried out.
Leaving bathouse
You have two possibilities to get back your Meeple who has been placed in the bathhouse.
1. Placing a tile
Getting back a Meeple from the bathhouse for free.
If a player places the last Land tile surrounding a bathhouse (the same way you complete monasteries), the Meeple placed in the bathhouse can be taken back immediately and for free.
Note!
- If you place a Meeple in a bathhouse which is already surrounded by 8 Land tiles, you cannot get him back for free.
- If you realize that there is still a Meeple in a bathhouse which has already been completely surrounded in a preceding round, you are not allowed to take him back for free anymore.
Placing a meeple
To get back your Meeple you can also pay with points. Move back your Meeple on the scoring board. The number of points you lose depends on the number shown on the respective bathhouse (2,3 or 4). You are allowed to have less than 0 points.
You can rebuy a Meeple after having placed a land tile. You are allowed to place this Meeple in the same round.
Scoring a feature
Scoring is not affected in this scenario.
If a Meeple leaves the bathhouse, it is free again and ready to welcome antother Meeple.
