The 3rd expansion to the base Catan game that offers a lot more diversity with a campaign consisting of five scenarios, which build in complexity, and four variations.

The campaign begins with the 'Fishermen of Catan' – where fishing adds to the menu and offers new tactical possibilities – and ends with 'Traders & Barbarians' where barbarians from the previous 'Barbarian Attack' scenario have been driven off, damage repaired and Catan’s roads begin to bustle with goods trains - marble and glass must be delivered to the castle, sand to the glassworks, and tools to the marble quarry – watch out some remaining barbarians can interrupt your deliveries.

Variations including 'The friendly robber' provide gameplay diversity and the Catan for two 2-player variant allows you to play the Base Game as well as all scenarios of this expansion against only one opponent.

Traders and barbarians provides more ways to play Catan with it's new scenarios and variations but if you are looking for more strategy try the Catan Cities and Knights expansion.
