You are reading the rules for this tile design. |
| If your tiles have a different design, then choose a game from Spin-offs. |  |
This is a celebratory expansion that serves as a homage to the first 3 major expansions. It does not matter if you don't know them, the gameplay with this mini-expansion is not affected.
General info and comments
Expansion symbol
The 20th Anniversary was released for the New Edition by Hans im Glück in 2021 as part of the 20th Anniversary Edition.
This expansion has cities cluttered with buildings.
This expansion has been developed for the Carcassonne basic game. All the basic game rules still apply in addition to the expansion rules below. You can combine it with other expansions - but at your own risk – that is, there will be no official rules for these combinations.
| Changes to the 20th Anniversary Edition
The rules for the 20th Anniversary Edition stay the same but the roles of some meeples have been updated:
Publishers have followed the new roles provided in the rules by HiG, although some of these changes are not noticeable in other languages. Note: We stick to the classic role convension for the sake of consistency with all the exisiting rules for the time being. HiG may decide to update the rules in the future to follow this new naming convention for new releases and reprints. |
|
Contents
- 15 new land tiles marked with a "20" symbol. These new tiles are divided into 3 groups of 5. Each group has one of the following symbols.
Arrow symbols featured on the expansion tiles
Rules
Preparation
Shuffle the 15 new tiles with the rest of the land tiles.
Gameplay
1. Placing a tile
When you draw a 20th Anniversary Expansion land tile, you place it according to the normal rules. Depending on the direction the arrow symbol arrow is pointing, the following situations may occur:
- If you place a tile with an arrow symbol so that the arrow doesn't point to an adjacent tile, you receive 2 points and your turn continues as usual.
Example 1a: The arrow symbol on the tile just placed does not point to an adjacent tile
- If you place a tile with an arrow symbol so that the arrow points to an adjacent tile, you activate the arrow symbol and the appropriate action can be performed according to its type (see 2. Placing a meeple and 4. Extra turn action).
Example 1b: The arrow symbol on the tile just placed points to an adjacent tile
- If you place any tile (no arrow symbol required) adjacent to a tile with an arrow symbol so that the arrow points to the tile just placed, you activate the arrow symbol and the appropriate action can be performed according to its type (see 2. Placing a meeple and 4. Extra turn action).
Example 1c: The arrow symbol on a tile in the playing area points to the tile just placed
2. Placing a meeple
You may place a meeple on the tile just placed according to the normal rules. However, if you activated an arrow symbol, you may have an additional option depending on the symbol type:
Instead of placing a meeple on the tile just placed, you may add it next to another of your meeples anywhere on the game board, so now there will be two meeples side by side. This means that you have one more meeple on the feature for its scoring and you may be able to secure the points (single-handedly).
Note: You may not use this action to add a third meeple to the two already placed side by side.
Example 2a: Red places a second knight next to their knight in a city elsewhere in the playing area.
Instead of placing your meeple on the tile just placed, you can place it on any unoccupied, incomplete feature (a road, a city, a field, a monastery, or even an abbot on a monastery or garden) anywhere in the playing area - so it doesn't have to be on the tile just placed. [1] Please note that fields completely surrounded are not considered completed, since they are not scored until the end of the game. [2]
Example 2b: Red places a meeple in a city elsewhere in the playing area.
3. Scoring a feature
If you complete a feature with 20th Anniversary Expansion tiles, it is scored according to the normal rules.
Final Scoring
At the end of the game, a feature with 20th Anniversary Expansion tiles is scored according to the normal rules.
4. Extra turn action
If you activated this symbol, you get an extra turn. First, you complete your current turn (the one in which the symbol was activated) according to the usual rules, and then you perform another full turn. Caution: If you activate this symbol again, it will have no effect. You will not get a third consecutive turn without interruption.
You can activate both other symbols in an additional turn. [3]
Summary
- If you place a tile with an arrow symbol so that the symbol is not activated (the arrow is not pointing to an adjacent tile), you get 2 points immediately, otherwise nothing changes.
- You activate an arrow symbol by placing the tile with the arrow pointing to an adjacent tile, or by placing a tile adjacent to another tile in the playing area featuring an arrow symbol pointing to the tile just placed.
- A maximum of 1 symbol can be activated per turn. If you could activate more than one, you may only choose one of them.
- If you place a symbol tile activating a symbol on another tile in the playing area, you score the usual 2 points (because you do not activate the symbol on the tile just placed).
You are allowed to add your meeple next to any of your previously-placed meeples in the playing area, so there will be 2 (there can be a maximum of 2 meeples at a time). [4]
You may place your meeple on any unoccupied, incomplete feature anywhere in the playing area.
You have an extra full turn (maximum of two consecutive turns). [5]
Other expansions
This section contains additional information about the interactions with other Carcassonne expansions.
You can only use the and arrow symbols to deploy a valid meeple to regular features, that is, those features that can be claimed and scored. Other special areas should not be allowed:
- Towers (Exp. 4 - The Tower)
- City of Carcassonne (Exp. 6 - Count, King and Robber)
- Crown of Wheel of Fortune (The Wheel of Fortune)
- City of Leipzig (The Markets of Leipzig)
- Bathhouses (The Barber-Surgeons)
- The Solovei Razboynik tree (Russian Promos)
- The Vodyanoy lake (Russian Promos)
Extra turn and the builder: During a double turn, if you activate a arrow symbol and you get an extra turn, you will finish your double turn in full before executing your extra turn.
Exp. 3 - The Princess & the Dragon
Magic portals: You should not be allowed to use a arrow symbol to place your meeple on a magic portal. This action symbol already acts as a magic portal so the same restrictions should apply.
Acrobat pyramids: You should not be allowed to use a arrow symbol to add a meeple to an acrobat pyramid where you already have a meeple. This action allows you to alter the majority in a feature, but it should not be allowed to be used with features where majority does not apply. An official clarification would be necessary.
Flying Machines: You should not be allowed to use a arrow symbol to place your meeple on a flying machine. This action symbol acts as a magic portal so the same restrictions should apply.
Monasteries in Germany / Monasteries in the Netherlands & Belgium / Japanese Buildings

The ZMG rules include an additional clarification for monasteries and gardens:
"You may place a normal meeple (or abbot) on unoccupied monasteries (or gardens) which have been not yet surrounded by 8 tiles." - ↑
The ZMG rules use a different wording for this sentence and seems mistranslated, since fields are always considered as uncompleted, no matter they are completely surrounded:
"Fields which are not completely surrounded count as not yet completed, since they are not scored until the end of the game." - ↑
This last sentence was included in the rules by Mindok.

This expansion does only allow you to place more than two meeples together this way. Other expansions, such as Mini #1 - The Flier (Flying Machines) or Mini #7 - Crop Circles, do not have this limitation.

You may perform only one extra full turn with this symbol.

The idea of this action is to pay homage to the large meeples in Exp. 1, so the new meeple is added to the feature in order to increase your majority vote for the same scoring. So you should be allowed to add a second meeple placed as a monk if the first one was placed as a monk, or a second meeple placed as an abbot if the first one was placed as an abbot. Mixing meeple positions should not be allowed since they would participate in different scorings and this would defeat the original purpose.

If the special monastery is completed, you should not be allowed to place a meeple as a monk on it since the same restrictions as for magic portals should apply.
