So far, so good on the minis
« on: April 07, 2013, 10:53:36 AM »
OK, so now, as part of our "re-learn" sessions (http://www.carcassonnecentral.com/community/index.php?topic=212.0) we've been adding the minis to Base + Inns. So far we've loaded in Goldmines, Ferries, and Crop Circles.  We've played about five times, twice with those three included, and have thoroughly enjoyed it.  And what has been really fascinating is that, even with a group that really tries to avoid playing aggressively (ie rarely playing something to block someone's else's feature), we've come to enjoy it.  And the result so far?

My mother, who is still trying to get comfortable with using farms and playing defensively, has won 4 of 5.  Her farms are huge.

And since HiG seems to go with "Corn Circles", we've decided the above expansions are actually Cheese and Butter, respectively. (They really do look like golden cheese blocks and soft butter sticks.)

So I think next will be to add Cathars and see how far this aggressiveness goes....

Thanks for the review. I've been looking into getting these myself. Glad to hear that you are enjoying them. Anyone else have any thoughts on the Minis?
