About the game
In this fourth expansion to Caravanserai, wandering peddlers — the chapmen — arrive at the caravanserai, trying to pass off colourful polished glass as precious rubies to the courtyard’s seasoned traders. Resourceful stable boys are quick to turn this opportunity to their advantage, mounting the faux rubies into brooch frames to sell at the market—though the vibrant red stones can ease their work in other clever ways, too. Chapman introduces an exciting asymmetric mode when playing with all four expansions. The Chapman expansion requires the Caravanserai base game, and may also be combined with the Dervish, Opium and Anahita expansions. —description from the publisher
