Amazing job explaining the game. So much easier to follow than the rule book but also great visual cues and just the right amount of banter. Loved the insider tips to keep in mind as well. Really excellent demonstration. Thank you!
I introduced my parents to Catan today, they enjoyed it! Glad I watched this though, as apparently I didn’t use the right rules, and this sounds more fun than how we played
My wife and I just learned from you!! We were puzzled how to play it but now we can play during lock down! Thank you! Just finished playing! You are so good explaining it!
I had played Catan once at my friends' place, and thought of getting one myself. Your video sealed the deal, and halfway through your video, I had placed the order. Waiting to get my hands on it (3-5 working days :P), so that I can play that Monopoly card!!! Amazing description. Lively and engaging. Thanks a lot!
I just watched another video and almost gave the game away (and also lost the will to live), but after watching this im looking forward to starting. Thanks so much!
This is my favourite game board video made by you yet. Probably because (Settlers of) Catan is such a old favourite of mine. And I've done all the stupid stuff you mentioned.
Thank you for this guide! Never played before and got catan for Christmas. Your video was fun and easy to follow, especially as a beginner! Cant wait to give it a go :)
If you have 2 settlements on a hex and the number is rolled, you get 2 cards. If you have 3 settlements, you get 3 cards. If you have 1 settlement and 1 city, you get 3 cards. And so on!
@@NightsAroundaTable thanks a lot for replying, I saw another video that said it was per player regardless of settlements. Thanks for explaining it, this makes a lot more sense
Yes! In turn order, everyone places 1 settlement. Then in reverse turn order, everyone places a second settlement. Your starting hand is made up of the cards matching the tiles that your second settlement touches.
If someone cuts off your road like described at 3:44 , can you continue building your road since it was already established after their settlement? Also, if someone built their settlement before your road was long enough to cut into, can you continue building past their settlement?
1. Yep - if someone interrupts your road, you can keep extending it from either end. 2. Nope - you can't extend roads past someone's settlement or city. Your road development in that direction is effectively blocked by your opponent's structure.
I played this for the first time this weekend, and really enjoyed the game. According to the rules explanation at the 3:08 mark a new settlement must be connected by roads to your other settlements, but the board is not set up this way. All the second settlements aren't connected by roads, or am I missing something?
Ah! Setup is actually the one time you can break that rule. Before the game officially begins, you place two settlements. You can place your second one clear across the island from the first, and it doesn't have to be connected at all. But with each of your first two settlements, you place one road, and each of those roads DO have to be connected to each settlement you place.
Thanks for my review of the game with you Ryan, I’m about to head over to play a game with two of my gamer nephews here in Kingston. Haven’t played in quite awhile and didn’t want to be a complete dolt.
What you _really_ need is a strategy guide so you can whomp 'em! Quick tips: 1. Try not to build on a harbour off the top of the game, unless you can also get frequently-rolling numbers on the resource that harbour needs 2. Avoid building near the desert 3. Always poll the other players for what they might have in their hands before unleashing a monopoly card 4. Remember that sheep/ore/wheat is a great combo that can aid in a development card strategy. There are (i think) four 1-point cards in the development deck, plus two more if you get the Largest Army by using your soldier cards. Add that to the 2 points you begin the game with, and you're most of the way to 10 pts to win!
1) Do you have build a settlement near the harbour (at the ending point) to get resourers..? 2) in my turn play the dice...Can i play more than 2 or more development card at my turn ? Thank you your explanation helped a lot 👍
1) Yes- you need to build all the way out to a harbour and have a city/settlement on that junction to take advantage of its trade ratio. A harbour doesn't give you anything when you roll the dice though. 2) You can only play 1 development card on your turn. If you play a soldier before rolling the dice, you don't get to play another dev card after rolling.
Can’t seem to find a definitive answer. I understand that when someone initially steals the longest road they get those two points plus an additional two for victory points. What happens when someone steals the longest road from the second person that originally stole it? Does the second person keep their two victory points or do they lose all four?
Let me try to clear a few things up: in Catan, you don’t really “gain” points. You HAVE points. At the end of your turn, if the number of points you currently have is 10, you win. But scores don’t “lock in” or ratchet up. The amount of points you have now may increase or decrease later. Let’s say you currently have zero points. (Impossible, i know. But watch.) When you gain the longest road card, you have two points. When you lose the card, you have zero points again. And the person holding the card now has 2 points. If that person loses the card to someone else, now you each have zero points. And the third player who holds the card has 2 points. So the card is like a “hot potato,” except it’s good. Does that make sense?
i feel like there's something missing here. do you get 4 points if you steal the Longest Road Card and Longest Army? also, what if your settlement is not with a harbor but just a sea? what happens then?
Yes - those cards are each worth 2 points to whoever holds them. If you overtake someone with roads or soldiers, you take the card, and the points balance shifts! If you're on a corner with no harbour, it generally means you've placed poorly, because your settlement is only served by 2 hexagonal tiles, and you don't get any harbour trading bonuses. You generally only want to build on a corner like that strategically, and usually towards the end of the game just to get your score up. A settlement is worth 1 point (and a city is worth 2) no matter where they're built.
@@NightsAroundaTable thank you so much for the help! 😁 I just want to clarify this one thing though. The rule books says, Longest Road: If you hold the “Longest Road” card and another player builds a longer road, they immediately take your “Longest Road” card. They also acquire the 2 bonus victory points. (Since you also lose 2 victory points, it is a 4 point swing!) What does that mean? It’s a 4 point swing?
@@MartinTabanag Let's say you and another player are tied at 6 points. You get the longest road card, so now you have 8 points. There's a 2 point difference between you and the other player (8-6). Now, the other player overtakes your road length and grabs the card from you. That player goes up 2 points from 6 to 8, and you go down 2 points from 8 to 6. Even though there's still just a 2 point difference between you (6-8), the total, or absolute, number of points that was either lost or gained in that single instance is 4. You lost 2, and your opponent gained 2. The direction of the points (up or down) doesn't matter - the score has "swung," or changed, by 4 points. Does that help?
@@NightsAroundaTable this is a very big help! Thank you very much! We actually thought it’s a 4 point additional 😅 I lose all the time because of this hahaha Thank you so much for clarifying! I am now at peace! And ready to win hahaha 🤗 Love your videos by the way!
@@NightsAroundaTable It's obvious you put a lot of work into this video, so, thank you. I played this game when I was an exchange student in Germany back in the 90s, forgot what it was called (settlers in German), re-discovered it as 'catan' and are finally ready to play! I think it's a great family game, I much prefer it over monopoly for example. I love the ability to create different maps with the tiles. Cheers!
@@jwbeaton You're right - it beats Monopoly pretty handily. If your family takes to it, there's a whole world of modern board games out there for you to discover! Just check my channel. i have a growing list of games i think are great for families. ruclips.net/video/E5j6b2qjeCU/видео.html
..can we build more than 1 in a turn, example build road, settlement? and what is the harbor with "?" mark? does it mean we can trade two different cards for 1 resource on the bank?..
Yes! You can build as much as you can afford on your turn. The regular bank trade is 4:1, the ? harbours are 3:1, and the specified harbours are 2:1. All of the cards you trade in have to be the same. But if you're trading with other players, you can get creative with your trade terms.
@@NightsAroundaTable ..thank you, it is very clear to me, I do lot of questions, again, thank you for your immediate reply, very much appreicated, gonna review our previous play..
..here's my new question about development card, on my turn, and I trade for it, and I got Library, do I need to reveal it immediately to inform them that I got another VP?.. ..what is the term "forking" and not doubling back (not sure if that is the right words), on granting longest road, I thought it should be 5 roads with no settlement/city in between on it..
No - you keep it hidden. That way, you can surprise your opponents when you reach 10 points and win the game. And just to be sure you’re playing correctly: you can only buy development cards. You can’t trade for them with other players.
@@NightsAroundaTable ..got it, again, thank you, then what about granting the "longest road", does it needs 5 all roads consecutively or it is okay if there is a settlement/city on it?..
The knight cards go out in front of you. The green progress cards go back in the box. The orange secret points cards go face-down until someone (perhaps you) wins the game.
Awesome video! Quick question on the robber, does the one card that gets stolen go back to the bank? Or does the player who rolled 7 keep the one card?
nice video, very helpful to get started quickly! just a quick question, playing a knight also makes players with more than 7 cards discard half of their hand?
You said just flip up the development cards to win but you can only do 1 per turn so if you have 2 or 3 vp points on development cards faced down you have to to wait 2 or 3 turns to play all of them
It's true that you can only play one development card on your turn, but cards with victory points on them are a special case. You can declare victory on your turn and reveal them all at once - no need to wait successive turns to flip them one by one.
It can, but like a lot of games, it's not optimal at 2 - especially because of trading. Even a 3-player game of Catan is a little lacking. If you're looking for a game like this, at a similar price, that plays well with 2 people, consider The Castles of Burgundy. Here's my video for it: ruclips.net/video/5hHJ1a7UByU/видео.html
Just bought an expansion and an the extension.. Unknowingly without having 1st bought the original game... Disappointing lol! Though it seems like a fun game to learn n play with the fam during these trying times. Ill be sure to pick it up tomorrow!

At 1:30 because theres 2 settlements from orange next to the hex you gave 2 cards but isn't it meant to be 1 resource per player, not settlement?

Do the victory point cards still count being in your hand, when you roll a 7?
Only resource cards are considered when the robber comes calling (wood, sheep, brick, ore, and wheat). Any other card type is safe.
