Game 2 - Cities & Knights with fish


This was a four player game of Cities and Knights with the Fishermen of Catan scenario added on. Jason, Tom, Jennifer and JB participated in this game. The fish were out in force, with Tom collecting the majority of the fish for most of the game. These fish fueled his empire, as he was constantly trading fish for commodities and resources. Tom played as gray.

Despite Tom's fish empire, Jason, who played as green, was the winner of this scenario. Jason used the longest road, a metropolis, and his brutal understanding of mathmatics to push past the thirteen points he needed to win, despite holding the boot. The boot, a component of the Fishermen of Catan varient, requires a player to get one extra point to win.

A special nod to Jennifer's suave move of stealing a mighty knight from me (JB who played in red). Jennifer played as blue.

Cities and Knights is drastically different from the basic Settlers of Catan game, as you develop structures within your cities and have to collectively fight off the barbarian hordes with knights. You can read about Cities and Knights at Wikipedia.
