82 game cards

8 harbor cards

With the Pirates expansion, Bohnanza goes to sea. With basic Bohnanza, when players harvested

beans they immediately sold them for gold coins. With Pirates, players may load their harvested

beans onto ships which will deliver them to other markets for higher profits. However, there are

pirates on the sea and they lie in wait in their pirate ships to capture the cargoes of merchant ships

carrying beans.

Pirates must be played with the Bohnanza basic game as this has the components necessary for up to

seven players. Except for changes to the rules described herein, the game is played the same as basic

Bohnanza.

Before combining the bean cards from the basic game and Pirates, remove the cards shown below

based on the number of players in the game.

Each player takes a merchant ship and a harbor card of the same color

and places these in her play area (the space before her on the table).

The harbor cards are the storage places for the gold coins the players

earn during the game.

For each player, place the second merchant ship in her color, the pirate

ship in her color (the flag on the mast), and a 3rd bean field to the side

on the table. Place all other merchant ships, pirate ships, and 3rd bean

fields back in the box.

Page 3 To go on a raid, the player tells her opponent which merchant ship she is attacking and where. Her opponent may choose to immediately sell the beans on the attacked ship, thus avoiding the raid. If she does not choose to do so, the attacking player takes one bean card from the attacked ship, placing it on her pirate ship, ending the raid.
Page 4 THE BEAN DUEL Pirates for two players For the Bean Duel, the following special rules apply. During preparation, both players take 5 bean cards as starting hands. The four phases of the game are changed as follows: 1st phase: plant bean cards Before or after planting a bean card on a bean field, a player may discard any one card from her hand.

They wrestle through thick, overgrown bean vines and must fulfill difficult tasks.
Page 6 The Vine task cards have tasks which the players must fulfill. Some cards have tasks that can only be fulfilled in a specific phase, for example, “In Phase 1, any player plays a Stink bean.” (see also example 1). Players can fulfill other cards by planting or harvesting, for example, “You harvest a bean field worth exactly 2 gold coins.”...
Page 7 Example of fulfilling tasks It is possible to fulfill several tasks in one turn (including paying tribute). Example 1: the yellow (active) player has two green beans at the front of her hand. She plants them both on one of her bean fields which already has green beans.
