This is my version of Settlers of Catan. It is completely finished and features new additions to the base game, including weather events; optional ports; and a class system (among other things). I hope you enjoy it.

Settlers of Catan

This is my version of 'Settlers of Catan'. The game is completely finished and plays best on a screen 1920x1080 as that enables status screens to be visible if 3-4 players are playing.

A shortcut key has been implemented for cancellation of actions. Hold ALT_C when the Catan Board has focus, and this will enable an OptionPane to appear that allows for cancellation.

And as for game additions I wanted to talk about, I have implemented a class system to the game that makes it more difficult (it is optional; choose the settler class if you want the standard game) as well as optional cataclysm events that can affect player resources at a 5% chance. As well, ports are optional as I've heard some people say they are too exploitable. Again, these three things are optional.

Additionally, I have added two custom modes: Democracy & Random. Random randomizes all tiles and their numbers every turn; Democracy allows players to elect a leader every turn cycle (and they can't vote themselves) that can choose how they roll on their turn. Also, there is now a 'Desertification' feature, giving each tile a 0.1% chance of morphing into a desert every turn. And, if a player uses the 'Arsonist' class, fires now have a 1% chance of spreading to adjacent tiles (if the 'Wildfire' option is enabled). As with the previous paragraph, these features are optional.

And finally, all the image files used in this game are not my own. They are all sourced from Google Images (non-copyrighted, as far as I can tell).
