Die Säulen der Erde

About this board game

Die Säulen der Erde (Sonderausgabe) is a 2008 special edition for 2–6 players, with an approximately 150-minute play time. It combines the base game Die Säulen der Erde, also known as The Pillars of the Earth, with two official extensions.

This edition brings together the original game, first published in 2006, and additional content from The Pillars of the Earth: Expansion Set and The Pillars of the Earth: New Craftsmen. Rather than purchasing these releases separately, this special edition presents them together in one package.

For players looking for the complete published collection associated with The Pillars of the Earth, the contents are:

• The base game Die Säulen der Erde / The Pillars of the Earth
• The Pillars of the Earth: Expansion Set
• The Pillars of the Earth: New Craftsmen

With space for up to six players and a listed play time of 150 minutes, Die Säulen der Erde (Sonderausgabe) is suited to a longer group gaming session. Its defining feature is the inclusion of both official extensions alongside the original game.

The special edition preserves the connection to the 2006 release while gathering the officially published expansion material in a single edition. Whether listed under its German title or its English name, The Pillars of the Earth, this 2008 release offers a straightforward way to find the base game and its two official extensions together.
