General info and comments
The Bets was originally released by Hans im Glück in 2022.
This expansion has cities with clipped 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.
Contents
- 10 bookmaker tiles
- 36 betting chips
Rules
Preparation
Each player receives 6 betting chips in their color and places them face down in front of them. Shuffle the 10 bookmaker tiles of this expansion together with the other land tiles.
Gameplay
If you draw a tile with a betting office depicted, carry out all three actions according to the usual rules 1. Place a tile, 2. Place a meeple and possibly also 3. Score points.
Next, everyone may choose one of their own betting chips from their supply and place it face down on the betting office on the tile. Stack the chips of all players onto the betting office. You may always look at the face down chips in front of you.
If all roads and cities are already finished after placing the bookmaker tile, no betting chips are placed.
Attention: All chips already lying on tiles stay face down until the scoring. You may not look at those chips!
3. Score points
Settling a bet
When scoring a road or city with segments on one or more bookmaker tiles with betting chips on it, those betting chips must be scored after the usual scoring. To do so, flip them over.
- If the number on your chip matches the number of tiles in the completed road or city, you score points.
- If your number does not match the number of points, you do not score bonus points.
Take your betting chips back into your supply after you have scored them. You may use them on new bookmaker tiles.
Betting chips
Most betting chips depict 2 numbers. Hence, they offer 2 possibilities to bet on the right number. If you are right, you score the respective points depicted on the chip.
The betting chip depicting only the number 4, requires the road or city to consist of 4 tiles exactly. In return you score double the points depicted (8 points). | |
The plus sign after the numbers means that more than 7 or 8 tiles can be part of the feature to win the bet. You still only score 7 or 8 points. |
Final scoring
If the last tile to be placed depicts a betting office, no more chips are to be placed. Score all remaining betting chips on tiles at the beginning of the final scoring. For the scoring, the number of tiles placed until this point applies. Before flipping over the betting chips you decide which city or road you want to score. Afterwards, you proceed with the final scoring as usual.
Other expansions
- The tile count considered when settling a bet is not modified by any expansions. You always consider the original number of tiles.
- One or two triangular tiles in one square space are counted as one tile.
- Each half of a double-sized tile is counted as a separate tile.
- Edge case: The long road segment on a Markets of Leipzig tile is counted as one single road segment even if it runs across the two halves of the double-sized tile.
- A 2x2 tile is counted as 4 separate tiles.
- German cathedrals connected several tiles to the same road do not affect the number of tiles to be considered when settling a bet on the road.
- The Highway scoring tile does not affect the number of tiles to be considered when settling a bet on a road.
- The Bad Neighborhood scoring tile does not affect the number of tiles to be considered when settling a bet on a city.
