Working on Completion...
« on: September 25, 2019, 03:16:09 PM »
Hello,

I've been a lurker here for a long time, but this is finally my first post. I got into Carcassonne a few years ago, but now that I have moved into a bigger place, I've gotten more focused on completing my collection. So far I think I have almost everything. I am missing a few important items though, and was wondering if anyone had any leads on tracking these down.

Here is what I still need for my collection:
- the 3 Darmstadt tiles
- La Porxada tile
- Wheel of Fortune (English version is preferable, and not the Big Box version)
- First Edition 70-space Scoring Track (I know this is going to be near impossible...)
- Scoring Track Bag (travel version)
- Scoring Track Bag (Russian promo version)

I'm not sure if this is the right place to post, but I've seen so many helpful posts here from previous years when I search for these, so i figured I should finally post and see.

Any help of guidance would be extremely helpful. I'm also making my first trip to Europe in October (I will be traveling to France, and actually visiting Carcassonne!). If anyone knows of ways that this trip might help widen my search options, I would love to find out more.

Thanks!

To make your list one item shorter, there is no printed La Porxada tile. Buy a blank tile and glue on a photocopy and you’ll have what was given away in Spain a decade ago.

Hi edarling,

Congrats for your first post on the forum.

Whaleyland is right. There is no proper La Porxada tile. Even the original ones were stickers on paper.

You can find some background info here:

http://wikicarpedia.com/index.php/La_Porxada_(1st_edition)

As to where to find an image to print it, you can find a version remastered by Jputt927 that contains two versions of the tile (one CCCC and one CCCF).

You can also find a high quality image of the tile as part of the CarcF Advent Calendar 2018 but the link is not available anymore.

Cheers!
