Players collect and trade these resources – Dilithium, Tritanium, food, oxygen and water – in order to build Starships that connect regions in the galaxy, establish more Outposts  and Starbases (upgraded Outposts) at new intersection points in order to increase resource acquisition, and acquire Development Cards that provide Victory Points (VPs) or special abilities.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eOn a dice roll of 7, a Klingon ship swoops in to prevent resource production on one planet, while taxing spacegoers who hold too many resources.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe one new element in \u003cem\u003eStar Trek: Catan\u003c\/em\u003e compared to the \u003cem\u003eSettlers\u003c\/em\u003e version is a set of \"Support Cards\", each featuring one of Kirk, Spock, McCoy, Sulu, Scott, Uhura, Chekov, Chapel, Rand or Sarek.

Each can be used either once or twice by a player before being returned to the \"Support Card Pile\" and replaced with another Support Card of the player's choice.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMicrobadges:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cimg src=\"http:\/\/geekdo-images.com\/images\/geekmbs\/mb_23216_0.png\" alt=\"http:\/\/geekdo-images.com\/images\/geekmbs\/mb_23216_0.png\" title=\"http:\/\/geekdo-images.com\/images\/geekmbs\/mb_23216_0.png\"\u003e \u003ca rel=\"nofollow\" href=\"http:\/\/www.boardgamegeek.com\/browse\/microbadge\/23216\" onclick=\"window.open(this.href, '_blank'); return false;\"\u003eStar Trek Catan fan - Catan Style Hex of Game Box\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cimg src=\"http:\/\/geekdo-images.com\/images\/geekmbs\/mb_23243_0.png\" alt=\"http:\/\/geekdo-images.com\/images\/geekmbs\/mb_23243_0.png\" title=\"http:\/\/geekdo-images.com\/images\/geekmbs\/mb_23243_0.png\"\u003e \u003ca rel=\"nofollow\" href=\"http:\/\/www.boardgamegeek.com\/browse\/microbadge\/23243\" onclick=\"window.open(this.href, '_blank'); return false;\"\u003eStar Trek Catan fan - Dilithium\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cimg src=\"http:\/\/geekdo-images.com\/images\/geekmbs\/mb_23262_0.png\" alt=\"http:\/\/geekdo-images.com\/images\/geekmbs\/mb_23262_0.png\" title=\"http:\/\/geekdo-images.com\/images\/geekmbs\/mb_23262_0.png\"\u003e \u003ca rel=\"nofollow\" href=\"http:\/\/www.boardgamegeek.com\/browse\/microbadge\/23262\" onclick=\"window.open(this.href, '_blank'); return false;\"\u003eStar Trek Catan fan\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eComponents:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cul\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e19 hexagonal \"Sector Tiles\"\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e6 Frame Pieces\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e60 Starships (15 each in 4 colors)\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e28 Outposts (7 each in 4 colors)\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e16 Starbase Expansions (4 Habitat Rings each in 4 colors)\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e1 Klingon ship\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e89 Stands for the Ships \u0026amp; Outposts\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e95 Resource Cards (19 each of Dilithium, Tritanium, Oxygen, Food \u0026amp; Water)\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e25 Development Cards (14 \"Starfleet Intervenes\", 6 Progress Cards \u0026amp; 5 \"Victory Point\" Cards)\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e10 Support Cards (Kirk, Spock, McCoy, Sulu, Chekov, Uhura, Scotty, Chapel, Rand \u0026amp; Sarek)\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e4 \"Building Costs\" Cards\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e2 Special Cards (\"Longest Supply Run\" and \"Largest Starfleet\")\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e18 Number Tokens\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e2 Dice\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eRules Sheet\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eAlmanac\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Catan Studio","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":39689830629562,"sku":"","price":59.99,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0567\/4178\/9882\/products\/117985.jpg?v=1620712548","url":"https:\/\/houseofcards.ca\/products\/star-trek-catan","provider":"House of Cards ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
