Catan: Explorers and Pirates



There's a new expansion for Catan: Explorers and Pirates.  Rather than a fundamental extension of the game like Cities and Knights or Seafarers (in a small way),  it appears to be more like Barabarians and Traders: mini-expansions and scenarios.  I am enough of a completist that I feel a pull to add this to the collection but for now I'm holding back because:

  1. I haven't even played through all the Barbarian and Traders variants yet.
  2. I haven't been overwhelmed with the added depth of play in said expansion.
  3. I don't think I have room in my box for another Catan expansion.
(It may or may not surprise you to know the last reason is the most compelling to me.)
