Asmodee Carcassonne - The Tower (Nordic)

The Tower is the fourth major expansion of the Carcassonne game. Tower segments are added to the game as well as some new actions. Instead of placing a Meeple as usual on their turn, players can now either place a tower segment on a tile with room for a tower, add a tower segment to an already standing tower, or place a Meeple on top of a tower (which "finishes" it).Placing a tower segment allows you to capture other players&apos Meeples as long as they are facing the tower in a right angle direction. If the tower is 1 tile high, they can capture Meeples that are within 1 tile of the tower if the tower is 2 tiles high, they can capture Meeples within 2 tiles of the tower etc. Not only do players lose whatever they may have scored with that Meeple, but they also have to pay 3 victory points if they want to release their Meeple.
