I'm more concerned the artwork is missing watermarks - except one tile were it's totally in the wrong place  :o :o


No i lie - I'm not concerned at all, I'd play it any which way it comes tbh.

What do you mean Decar? The picture i have shows a watermark on the tiles, and 1 tile with the mark only half on the tile  :o

In Finland the title is going to be "Teltta ja Tirehtööri", which translates to "Tent and the Ringmaster / Circus Director". Why not simply plain Sirkus...

That is the worst yet.  How does one pronounce "Tirehtoori"?  Tire+Tory?

Kudos to the Dutch for getting it right.   :(y) Too bad I can't merit a nation.

Leven, that is perfectly correct! Nice to know somebody knows something about Finland  ;D The only exception is if there are letters NG in the middle of a word, then it is pronounced slightly different. Everything else, just like it is written.

Oh... , thodekey, and I thought it was Swiss chocolate...  :o
Ok, I looked it up: It is Swiss chocolate . ... Yep, definitely. ;P

Well, at least Frenchmen were clever and took something good. Germans weren't that lucky and only got a certain WWII Dictator...

--

Indeed the Finnish name it is my favourite, because it follows the tradition of naming the expansions in the format "A & B" or "A, B & C" according to what it contains.

However, I'd have preferred something like "Troubadour & Jester". Circuses are just so NOT medieval. I truly believe that there would have been plenty of potential in Jesters, Minstrels and Troubadours, acrobats, jugglers, conjurers, feasts and fairs. Wouldn't it have been lovely to see our princess playing with her jester and troubadours trying to appease the dragon?

ZMan's news says, "The Circus is Coming to Carcassonne" and then the box says "Under the Big Top".  I think some of the people there agree that the expansion should be "The Circus".

Thanks!  Now I know what to say if I meet anyone from Finland who asks me what I do for a living.   :))

While I was in Brussels, I acquired a taste for mayonnaise on my belgian fries.  When I do that here, my fellow Americans look at me with disdain.  The other discovery I made was escargot I purchased from a street vendor :(y).  That was much better than the broodje haring I had in the Netherlands :(n)
