Just wondering if anyone knows more specifically what's in the Scenario's and Variants Box Set?   THere's so much already on the net, I'm wondering if it's worth the $25.   Anyone have this or know someone who does? 

Here's what the advertisements say:
Here you will find a 192 page book, featuring 15 new scenarios for the basic Settlers of Catan and the Seafarers of Catan expansion. You will also find 19 new variations on the game that will create entirely new experiences with the game. You will also find tips and tricks for improving your game, a discussion of the history of the game, and even some suggestions and tactics for the Settlers of Catan Card Game. Contained in this set is a box full of new playing pieces that will enable you to play these scenarios. Ten sheets of high-quality (die-cut) card-board counters and tiles that you can use in a variety of ways to enhance your Settlers of Catan experience. Featuring more than 450 new pieces for use with your Settlers of Catan and Seafarers of Catan games. Also included are 12 plastic bags and labels to help you organize you new pieces, and 24 plastic stands.

Thanks!

Hi Bobbr,

Firstly let me congratulate you on being the first member of the general public to sign-up to the site, welcome aboard.

As for your question, I hadn't heard of this expansion pack before so I did a little digging.  It appears to be a fairly broad expansion that looks good,  the only downside that I can see is that it appears to be written in German.  Both sites I looked at for information said that it was written this way, however only one said that they included a translation.  There is a suggestion that some of the additional cards are in german as well.

So saying, if you can read german no problems, otherwise you might need to find one that comes with a translated book.

Happy Playing,
Admin  :)
