Place Initials Settlement For Free

The first player places one of his settlements at an intersection, where three terrain hexes meet, the adjoining hexes are the resources he will earn if the number on that hex is rolled (so choose wisely!). Next, he places one of his roads on one of the three possible places next to his first settlement.

The starting player places a settlement on an open intersection of his choice. He places a road adjacent to this settlement. The other players then follow clockwise. Everyone places 1 settlement and 1 adjoining road.

The highest roller goes first. If you have played Catan: Rise of the Inkas several times, we recommend that players place their starting settlements ing to the rules for starting settlements in Set-Up Phase (Initial Placement) in the Almanac. You must roll the 2 dice to determine which hex(es) produce this turn.

A much more ideal setup would be an 8-5-10 placement, with a secondary placement of 6-9-4. Red started out with 8-5-10 here with easy access to a port and the ore on his right. The wool-brick-wheat 6-9-4 combination on his west would be an ideal target for his next placement.

During the setup phase, the start player places a settlement on any empty intersection of the hexagons. They also place a road on one of the paths next to it. Placement continues clockwise until all players have placed one settlement and road.

You can place your starting settlements pretty much anywhere you want.

We all agree that it suffices to add the number of dots and use this to determine if one spot is better than another. First takes 10/5/8 (Brick/Ore/Sheep) = 12 dots. Second takes 6/9/3 (Wood/Sheep/Ore) = 11 dots. ... Third takes 8/10/4 (Wheat/Sheep/Wood) = 11 dots. ... Fourth takes 9/5/10 = 11 dots. Fourth takes 6/5/11 = 11 dots.
