Merlin: Arthur Expansion

About this expansion

Merlin: Arthur Expansion is an expansion for 2–4 players that adds King Arthur, new action spaces, and additional rewards to the Merlin base game. A game lasts approximately 75 minutes, and the expansion was released in 2018.

King Arthur joins the search for a worthy successor to his throne. Using his tactics, he helps knights gain more points and rewards throughout the game, bringing his own presence and abilities to the existing experience.

The expansion introduces a brand-new rondell that fits over the top of the Merlin base game rondell. King Arthur has his own internal track, and only he can move around it, either clockwise or anti-clockwise.

• King Arthur joins the search for a successor.
• A new rondell fits over the base game’s rondell.
• Arthur’s internal track moves clockwise or anti-clockwise.
• Additional action spaces and rewards expand the base game.
• The expansion adds the Picts and King Arthur’s ring.

These additions open up more opportunities during play while keeping the expansion connected to the rondell structure of Merlin. The new elements provide further ways for King Arthur and the knights to interact with the search for the next ruler.

For players who already own Merlin, Merlin: Arthur Expansion adds King Arthur himself alongside a dedicated track, extra spaces, rewards, the Picts, and Arthur’s ring.
