Agricola: Farmers of the Moor is the first big expansion for Agricola.
This expansion replaces the minor improvements and the occupations of the base game with a large set of new improvements, and adds a number of new features. Horses are introduced as a new type of animal, and your family members now cost fuel in addition to food. You can get this fuel by chopping down the forests on your farmyard, or by harvesting peat.
Farmers of the Moor Expansion Overview
Even last century, cutting peat was a way to warm your home and expand the available area for farming. Forests filled a similar niche. With “Agricola - Farmers of the Moor,” players start the game with Moor and Forest tiles on their farmyard. They must use Special actions to remove them to give greater space for their fields and pastures. Removing the tiles provides Wood and other Fuel, which they need to heat their home. The Special actions give the game a different dynamic. These are additional actions, which players can take without placing one of their People. The game “Agricola” is required to play this expansion.
