Could someone who is able to read Russian write down the saying from Bogatyr's stone in Cyrillic script, please?

I already posted the translation on this particular stone, which is slightly different from the original picture.

Decar and MrNumbers, thank you for the nice links! The only problem is that I would like to have it in Cyrillic script.

I tried to figure out the letters on my own, but it is too difficult for me.

Do you mean this?

Nalevo poydyosh

Napravo poydyosh

Or this:

«Направо пойдешь — жену найдёшь, налево — коня потеряешь, прямо — сам пропадёшь»

....

This is different

If you go to the right - you'll find a wife.
If you go to the left - you'll loose your horse.
If you go straight - you'll find death.

There are very many variations of this stone, every time something is different.

Bingo!

But is this what is written on the stone of the Russian landscape tile, too?

No. On that stone is written:

Налево пойдёшь -
смерть найдёшь.
Направо пойдёшь -
коня потеряешь.
Прямо пойдёшь -
жить будешь да
себя позабудешь.

Ah, yes. There is a little difference. Thank you MrNumbers!

Sorry to resurrect this thread, but I was reviewing the state of my completionism and I wanted to check something.

Way back in this thread aenima said that there are two versions of the Bogatyr tile:

Quote from: aenima on April 14, 2015, 03:15:55 AM

there are 2 version of The Choice of Bogatyr with or without the write.

And over on another thread, Decar talked about a series of "completionist" items including "Both versions of the Russian Tiles from HobbyWorld":

Quote from: Decar on January 01, 2016, 03:42:02 PM

If you're a completionist have you got:

> All three print runs of Corn Circles?
> Two sets of Teacher Meeple Essen/Cundco are slighty different
> Both versions of the Russian Tiles from HobbyWorld
> All 3 versions of the Cult
> A first edition of Brazilian Carcassonne / the 2nd
> Both versions of the Gingerbread expansion
> A misprinted King tile?

However, I don't think that there actually were two versions of this tile and can't find any pictures of the one with writing on it.

As far as I can tell, that image is actually just a coaster that was given out to some tournament participants, which can now be purchased here: http://en.hobbygames.ru/cork-coaster-carcassonne

Does anyone (aenima? Decar?) have any more information on this? Was there ever actually an official Bogatyr tile printed with the writing on it?

There aren't two versions of the tiles!

There's two versions of the score bag that was released with them!

There were two batches, the scorebags from both versions come with different drawstring!

Don't get me started on the-school-drawstrings!

JT Atomico · « **Reply #88 on:** March 01, 2016, 08:08:10 AM »

Ahh, phew

Wow, I thought it was bad that I finally gave in to worrying about watermarks but worrying about drawstrings of tile bags is a whole new level! I think I'm ok with just the version that I have... for now at least!
