Carcassonne: The Markets of Leipzig

About this expansion

Carcassonne: The Markets of Leipzig is a small 2017 expansion for Carcassonne, designed for 2–6 players. It adds four double-landscape tiles depicting marketplaces to the Carcassonne II edition of the series.

The expansion’s rules affect the many small farmhouses shown on tiles from all Carcassonne II expansions. This gives the marketplace tiles a connection to the wider landscape tile collection while preserving their role as an addition to the existing Carcassonne experience.

• Four double-landscape tiles featuring marketplaces
• Rules involving the small farmhouses shown on Carcassonne II expansion tiles
• Two double-landscape tiles for Carcassonne: Amazonas
• Available in the Carcassonne II design

Carcassonne: The Markets of Leipzig was first released as a limited edition of 600 copies. The first 300 were offered at modell hobby spiel in Leipzig from 29 September to 1 October 2017, followed by another 300 at Spiel’17 in Essen from 26 to 29 October 2017.

The limited edition was signed by Klaus-Jürgen Wrede and the CEO of Leipzig’s trade fair center, Messe Leipzig. It also contained 13 Followers/Meeples. A more general version is available as well, making this compact expansion part of the broader Carcassonne series.
