What expansions do you own, but have yet to play with?
« on: May 14, 2015, 07:19:12 PM »
As far as expansions with unique features goes, I own everything except Crop Circles 1 (the new Castles is on the way).  I don't really count Cathars because I own siege and the tiles are the same.  The different iterations of Windroses, and Cult Places fall into the same category for me.  That being said, I still have not had an opportunity to play with all of them.  Below is the list that I own and have not yet played.  What's on your list?

Bridges, Castles, and Bazars (I have only played with the bridges)
Windroses
Plague
Crop Circles
Festival
Little Houses
The new Klosters/Kloosters

Good question! I own all the ones below.

Princess and Dragon – wife won’t like it – at all
Messengers – doesn’t sound appealing to me
The Count – seems cumbersome
Catapult – not practical imo
Robbers – not that interested in the mechanics
The Tower – the one I would most want to play but our game is too long already, (we don’t separate our pieces – only play a mega game). If we want a shorter game we play a spin off or iPad).
Franks

Wanna play Carc? Can we add just one more expansion?

I'v had several expansions that took a while before trying, but the only one I have now that I didn't try, is the plague.

I've played every expansion at least twice except Darmstadt and Castles. And the only reason I've only played those two once each is because those were the last two games I've played of Carcassonne and I haven't had time for more plays!

On a related note, my review of Castles should be out tomorrow sometime...if I remember to do it, that is.  ;)

Expansions I own that I've never played are:

Little Buildings
Windroses
School
Goldmines (although I played it on JCZ last week)
Robbers
Messages
Catapult
Festival
Wheel of Fortune

Hopefully once I get my storage box next weekend it will make everything I own more accessible and I'll get around to playing all of these (except Catapult of course).

My partner and I like the Plague so we've played it a few times. Most people don't seem to like it though.

For me, it's been two. I got them mainly just to have the tiles.  :))

The Plague and
Catapault

Everything else we've played the rules with, at least once. :)

I'm quite hesitant to play with The Plague, as it's the 'middle child' of Dragon, Tower and Crop Circles. Any suggestions? I was thinking that we shouldn't mix it with too many expansions and rules but don't know how others may have gotten around this. Also, we are yet to play with The Catapult and The Houses, but those we quite look forward to!
If only I had another Halfling.....

Personally, I like the Plague. It's not really designed to be played with a lot of other expansions, but there are some good ideas of what expansions you can use with it in this thread.

I have all the major expansions and a few of the the smaller ones, plus all the spin-offs. Only ones never played:
Catapult - Probably no surprise there!
Bridges Castles and Bazaars
Count King And Robber - Have played Count in mini format.
I also have Wheel of Fortune and not played.

Bridges and Castles are pretty fun to do.
the only thing i dont like is that a farm continues under the bridge, creating insane big farms.

For me, it's the Plague. Possibly the only expansion that my Wife doesn't want to play!

Do you own expansions you never play yet still rush out to buy new ones?
