Carcassonne: Towers & Thieves
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).
What is Carcassonne: Towers & Thieves
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.
Part of the Carcassonne series.

What the community says about Carcassonne: Towers & Thieves
De las expansiones que poseo, es la que más me gusta, porque añade un factor de puteo muy interesante. Te permite capturar prisioneros entre tus contrincantes. Vendido a Max en Mayo 2014, junto a la expansion de Constructores y Comerciantes. Ambos juntos por 12 €, que es colega.
I love to play with the Tower because it adds a cut-throat element at the beginning of the game, but not through the whole game (in our games), because everyone has only so many tower blocks to play. If your looking for a more cut-throat variant for Carcassonne you have to get this.
