REAL TIME CATAN

This is a tool for playing Catan in real time. The concept is simple:

• There are no turns, the dice are rolled automatically
• Players can build and trade at any time, including ports
• The game ends immediately when someone reaches 10 points

To begin, roll a real die for settlement placement order, then use the Player Order selector.

• The Robber rotates based on this starting player order
• On a 7, the game pauses; hit start again after the steal
• You still can lose half your cards. Trade fast!

You can also buy and use development cards as normal.

• Pause the game as needed, e.g. knights or monopoly
• Each person can only play one development card per roll
• Further, only one knight can be played (by anybody) per roll

The timer is based on both the Turn Time and Time Modifier.

• I strongly recommend a 30s turn time
• To avoid hitting "Next" a lot in the slow early game, use modifier
• It adds time to the timer based on x * log(turn count)
• For this I strongly recommend 10s turn time and a modifier of 5
