Carcassonne: Expansion 4 - The Tower
The Tower is the fourth major expansion for the Carcassonne game. Tower segments are added to the game; as well as some new actions. Instead of placing a Meeple as usual on their turns; players can now either place a tower segment on a tile with a space for a tower; add a tower segment to a tower already standing; or place a Meeple on top of a tower (which finishes it).
Placing a tower segment allows you to capture other players' Meeples; so long as they are in view of the tower in an orthogonal direction. If the tower is 1 piece high; they can capture Meeples that are within 1 tile of the tower; if the tower is 2 pieces high; they can capture Meeples within 2 tiles of the tower; etc. Not only do players lose whatever they may have scored with that Meeple; but they also have to pay 3 victory points if they want to free their Meeple.
NOTE: This is NOT A STAND ALONE GAME and requires the Carcassonne 2nd Edition base game to play.
