A Carcassonne Central expansion by Novelty and jputt927

based on the original ideas by Jabberwocky

In the days gone by, the empire of Rome held sway over what is now Carcassonne and its environs.
The Romans brought many advances to the region – good roads, improved agricultural methods, a
new language that eventually became French and their places of worship.

ADDITIONAL RULES

Preparation

Shuffle the tiles with the rest of the other tiles.

1. Place a tile

The tiles are placed in the normal way.

The Roman Road is a special type of road. Most normal Carcassonne rules that apply to roads also
apply to the Roman Road with the following exceptions. When the Roman Road is played, a
follower may be deployed to the tile normally. However, during subsequent turns, when a tile with
a road is drawn, it must be placed such that it extends the Roman Road where possible

1

, unless that

tile would end the road. If the tile would end the road, it is the player's choice whether to extend
the Roman Road or not.

2. Deploy a follower

Any player who extends the Roman Road may deploy a thief

2

to the road segment of the tile just played, even if the

road as a whole already has a thief on it. This is to represent that the Roman Road is a free highway and is popularly
used by all.

3. Score the completed King’s Road

The player with the most thieves on the Roman Road scores in the normal way (i.e. one point per tile of the
completed road. Inns along the road add and extra point per tile in the usual way, etc.).

1

It may not be possible to extend to the Roman Road with the tile just drawn due to other adjacent tiles.

2

Or a builder, or any follower that may be deployed normally to roads. The other usual rules of Carcassonne still apply to

the road, e.g. the builder can only be deployed to the road if thereÊs already a thief of the same colour on the road.

The Roman Temple is a special type of Cathedral. As the Cathedral is to the cloister, so is the
Roman Temple to the shrine (or cult place). No player may play a follower to the Roman Temple
when it is played

3

. When a city with a Roman Temple is completed, each tile and pennent in the

completed city scores one additional point. However, if the completed city also contains a
Cathedral in addition to the Roman Temple, then the effects of both the Cathedral and the Roman

Temple cancels each other out and neither the Cathedral nor the Temple adds one additional point to the tiles and
pennants of the completed city when the city is scored.

End of Game

If an Inn appears along the Roman Road, the Roman Road scores partial points at the end of the game even if it is
not completed (the player with the most thieves on the Roman Road scores one point per tile).

If a city with a Roman Temple

4

has not been completed at the end of the game, it scores no points during the final

scoring.

3

Unless playing with the fan-made Missionary expansion rules, in which case, the Roman Temple is considered to be the

same as a Cathedral. However, it is possible to play a follower (or the builder) to the city part of the Roman Temple tile,
provided that this is permissible according to the normal Carcassonne rules.

4

It does not matter if the incomplete city with the Roman Temple also contains a Cathedral. Any incomplete city with a

Roman Temple scores no points.
