Gameplay

Feature Crop Circles C2.png

When you draw a tile with a crop circle, perform a standard turn, following the normal order of 1. Place a Tile, 2. Place a Meeple, and 3. Score a Feature. Then, perform the new action: 4. Crop Circle Action.

Note: The crop circles separate roads and fields. Meeples cannot occupy crop circles.

4. Crop Circle Action

After you place a tile with a crop circle on it, you must choose one of the following actions:

A) Based on the crop circle, you may [2] deploy a meeple from your supply next to one your meeples already on a tile. [3]
OR
B) Based on the crop circle, you must remove one of your meeples from a feature and return it to your supply.

Then, all players (starting with the player to your left and proceeding clockwise) must perform the action you chose, and then you perform that action.

Additional rules

  • The type of meeples that are added or removed is determined by the crop circle you placed:
Crop Circles C2 Feature Crop Rake.png
Rake Crop Circle
This affects farmers (in a field).
Crop Circles C2 Feature Crop Club.png
Club Crop Circle
This affects highwaymen (on a road).
Crop Circles C2 Feature Crop Shield.png
Shield Crop Circle
This affects knights (in a city).
  • If A was chosen, you may only place the meeple in a feature where at least one of your indicated meeples is already present (farmer to farmer, highwayman to highwayman, knight to knight). [4]
  • If you do not have any meeples of the indicated type in play, but you placed the tile, you must still choose A or B.
  • If you do not have any meeples of the indicated type in play [5], you do not perform the chosen action.
  • Once all players have performed the chosen action, play resumes, starting with the player on your left. [6]
Example for A)
  1. You place a tile with the Shield crop circle and place one of your meeples on it as a knight. You choose action A. Each player may place a knight next to one of their knights. [7]
  2. The green player adds another knight.
  3. The blue player has no knights in play, and does nothing.
  4. You place another knight next to the one you placed earlier in the turn. You could not have chosen the city on the upper-left side of the tile, because you did not already have a knight there. (You could also have deployed the knight next to your knight in the upper left corner). [8]
Example for B)
  1. The green player places a tile with the Rake crop circle, and places a meeple on it as a knight. This completes the city, awarding green with 4 points. Then, the green player chooses action B.
  2. The blue player removes a farmer.
  3. You remove a farmer.
  4. The green player has no farmers, and does nothing.

  1. Oficjalne wyjaśnienia od wydawcy Crop fields (the yellow areas) are distinct features and thus separate road segments and field segments. (1/2013)
  2. Notoryczne różnice w zasadach między wydaniami lub wydawcami The ZMG rules consider that placing the meeple is mandatory unless not possible for a player. This discrepancy can be the result of a mistranslation.
  3. Notoryczne różnice w zasadach między wydaniami lub wydawcami The ZMG rules indicate that you add the meeple to "a feature where you already have a meeple", that is, the meeple can be placed on any tile of a feature with another meeple belonging to the player. This discrepancy can be the result of a mistranslation.
    This discrepancy has clear implications, for example, in the interactions with Rozszerzenie 3. - Księżniczka i Smok Rozszerzenie 3. - Księżniczka i Smok and Rozszerzenie 4. - Wieża Rozszerzenie 4. - Wieża, since the ZMG rules allow players to place additional meeples on a different tile than the meeple previously present in a feature. This would allow players to increment their odds against the dragon or the tower.
  4. Oficjalne wyjaśnienia od wydawcy Any meeple that can be put on a road is considered a highwayman. Any meeple that can be put in a city is considered to be a knight.
  5. Notoryczne różnice w zasadach między wydaniami lub wydawcami The ZMG rules added the condition "and did not place the tile" here, that is unnecessary and may be misleading as the sentence can be interpreted as if the active player is forced to execute the action always, even if he or she does not have any meeples of the indicated type in play.
  6. Oficjalne wyjaśnienia od wydawcy After the crop circle action, the active player should continue with any actions pending as part of their turn, such as removing a knight from a sieged city through a monastery (see Oblężnicy - Katarzy - Oblężenie Oblężnicy - Katarzy - Oblężenie) or performing the second part of a double turn (see Rozszerzenie 2. - Kupcy i Budowniczowie Rozszerzenie 2. - Kupcy i Budowniczowie). After all pending actions are performed, the next player's turn can proceed.
  7. Notoryczne różnice w zasadach między wydaniami lub wydawcami The ZMG rules omitted this last sentence.
  8. Notoryczne różnice w zasadach między wydaniami lub wydawcami The ZMG rules omitted this clarification.
