Title: Carcassonne: How it SHOULD be played

IMPORTANT!

We've all been getting the rules VERY wrong for the better part of two decades!

Moritz Brunnhofer just explained this video during the Coffee and Cake event.

He thought it was a most enjoyable video!

Ha ha ha - I love that it's gone to the top of HiG already! :))

Z-Man Games linked to it on Facebook, and their comment was something along the lines of "looks like we got the rules wrong..." so I was immediately interested. However, I got distracted by one of the comments underneath it which I took offence to and didn't actually watch the video until some time later.

Looks like a fun alternative anyway, and the fact that you only use two thirds of the tiles will help prevent tile counting (not that this will make any difference anyway).

I especially like when the carcasses get sucked into the nightmarish grey hellscape! and the water slide. My river will now be referred to as a water slide. :))
