Wingspan European Expansion

£24.99

Superb boardgame with simple rules, but the more you play it, the more you see the depth of the game and the tactics you can employ to win. One of our favourite games at Lost Ark Games!

Carcassonne is a tile-placement game in which the players draw and place a tile with a piece of southern French landscape on it. The tile might feature a city, a road, a cloister, grassland or some combination thereof, and it must be placed adjacent to tiles that have already been played, in such a way that cities are connected to cities, roads to roads, etcetera. Having placed a tile, the player can then decide to place one of their meeples on one of the areas on it: on the city as a knight, on the road as a robber, on a cloister as a monk, or on the grass as a farmer. When that area is complete, that meeple scores points for its owner.

During a game of Carcassonne, players are faced with decisions like: “Is it really worth putting my last meeple there?” or “Should I use this tile to expand my city, or should I place it near my opponent instead, giving him a hard time to complete their project and score points?” Since players place only one tile and have the option to place one meeple on it, turns proceed quickly even if it is a game full of options and possibilities.

What could be even better than playing Wingspan as a Wingspan fan based in the UK? Or Germany? Or Spain? Well, when the birds you play are also the ones you get to see outside your own window, of course!  

In this first expansion to Wingspan, 81 new regal, beautiful, and varied birds from across Europe flock to nest in the habitats on your personal player boards. With a variety of exciting abilities, including repeating teal powers that trigger at the end of each round, abilities that increase direct interaction between players, and birds that can be acquired in new and unique ways, this expansion extends the game play without needing to learn any complex rules.  

Also included in the box are a host of new bonus cards and round end goals (not to mention solo Automa cards) which add more dimensions to your strategy each game. And these, together with the beautifully illustrated birds, are designed to be integrated seamlessly with the base game (and future expansions). Wingspan is already an almost infinitely replayable game. But this expansion takes the variety of cards, bonuses, and powers you see every time it comes to the table to another level.  

The European Expansion also includes an additional tray for storing the growing collection of birds (past, present, and future), as well as 15 gorgeous purple eggs, extra food tokens, and a colourful new scorepad designed for both multi-player and single-player scoring. 

This expansion brings more of what you already love about Wingspan to your gaming experience whilst preserving the balance and core mechanics of the base game.
