Today I got this in the mail:



These are for sale. So far none has claimed, understandable as I haven't had time to update the Ark-availability thread yet. Haven't mapped out total cost yet, but if you are willing to pay 40 Euro for it you have a rough value of the total. It will not be above that for European Union members, that's for sure.

And yes, this is 40 Euro INCLUDING shipping. Eat that Ebay sellers!  :P

it's hard to navigate in carcassonne, because the map change constantly.

In the last few weeks was the postman more than once at my door.

Here you can see what was inside the packages:

Thanks to danisthirty, quevy, violet, Udo.

Dan's postman came to visit me today too - I received a very cool tera-meeple! How many standard meeples is it worth in a standard game?

Thanks Dan - I love it!
Just lay the damn tile!

Today I got a nice surprise from America. 









It looks like a fun game and the quality is fantastic. I look forward to playing!

This arrived on Christmas evening as a little present to myself.  :D
Got I through BGG for £34.75 including postage. Maybe a little expensive, but now my collection is complete (except La Porxada which I newer expect to get hold of :'( ).

EDIT: - Sorry, but I've removed the attachment from this post as HiG don't allow us to make official Carcassonne expansions freely available  C:-)

Sorry :o I thought that the low resolution of the scan made it ok.

Yesterday I received the new artwork version of Carcassonne. In the next few days I should receive Gold Rush as well.

Last week I received the City on the Zwin expansion for Bruges, which I've integrated into the box from the base game.

Dig Down Dwarf should be coming soon for me as well. I pledged for the fancy tin box version.

Congratulations on your complete collection! Luckily for me, I have made my own definition of what is 'complete', and my own view is that if you have Crop Circles II, you don't need Crop Circles I. That makes it easier!

Well done! :(y) 

JungleBoy, does that mean I don't need Cathars because I got Siege?

I also pledged Dig Down Dwarf. 5 copies actually to give as Christmas presents. They arrived the day after Christmas. The good news is we had our Christmas on the 26th anyway due to family traveling in. So it worked out just fine. We have logged many many plays and are enjoying it. You have to follow on BGG to get some of the rules clarifications but other than that we're enjoying it.

Hopefully Scott can post up some pics of the tin!
I just drew the perfect tile for my MonKnighThieFarmer!

Only you can decide that for yourself :)

Personally I think they are different enough so that yes, you still 'need' Cathars. The artwork is different and the Cathars expansion is legendary. But for CCI & II, the artwork is the same - just the tile configuration is different.

Meanwhile, you don't need the postman when you're in German-speaking lands!

This was my view at DracheNäscht in Bern today:

Well there's a game for you then. Try to figure out what everything is based on colours and word association and your knowledge of the boxes, without using a dictionary :)
