Preamble
The Lords of Carcassonne reside at their Castles for as long as can be remembered. Their status does not only become apparent by the scale of their houses, but also by the length of their Castle roads. The longer a Castle road, the more status for the Lord.

Contents
- 4 new land tiles depicting Castle on road.
New land tiles
The new Land tiles are played like those in the base game.
Castle on road: Castle on road: The Castle is part of the road. A Follower can be placed only on the Field or on the Castle as a Lord. |
Rules
Preparation
Shuffle the Castle Lords tiles together with the land tiles of the basic game.
Gameplay
1. Placing a tile
When a player draws a Castle Lord tile, that player places that tile as per normal rules.
2. Placing a meeple
After placing a Castle Lord tile, you can place your meeple
- on the field as Farmer
or - on the Castle as Lord.[1].
Example 1: Red places his follower on the Castle. The road leading to the castle is now a Castle Road and thus occupied by Red. |
Note 1: Placement to road is not allowed, because road is part of Castle road. Note 2: Rules for meeple placement for Castle road as same as for regular Road. Only difference is that meeple placed as Lord occupies also Castle road.
3. Scoring a feature
Castle is completed when its Castle road is completed.
Lord scores Castle by its Castle road 1 point for each tile itself. Each joining tile of Castle road scores the player 1 point more than the previous tile based on length of road. Lords and Highwaymen share majority on Castle road. Player with multiple Lords on same Castle road scores Castle only once. When not have majority on Castle road, player scores 0 points. Highwayman shared majority on Castle road scores road by standard rules of Road - 1 point for each tile.

Uncompleted Castle roads are scored as per normal rules of Road at the end of the game by schering majority for Lords and Highwaymen on Castle road.
