Title: WTB: D̶a̶r̶m̶s̶t̶a̶d̶t̶, Black Teacher, Purple Teacher
Post by: djunjuppeke on June 18, 2017, 11:09:14 AM
Hey since I discovered Carcassonne 2 years ago, I have been collecting every expansion in the old style. Up until now i only need the D̶a̶r̶m̶s̶t̶a̶d̶t̶ ̶t̶i̶l̶e̶s̶, the black and purple teachers and the Solovei Razboynik Russian Tile.

Is there anyone willing to sell one of these? Unfortunatly i don't have much to trade except 2 copies of the Windroses II (2013).

When you can help me complete my collection, please contact me!

Thanks in advance

 ;D

Im also looking for the Red - Blue - Green - Yellow - Black - (Grey) Abbot. Is there anyone willing to sell them? (I just don't want even half a new style tile in my house :D).

Seems unlikely you'll find someone who bought the new edition of Carcassonne who is willing to sell the meeple that were designed to be used with the new edition.  [Unless it was for a good cause: Dan ;) ]

It doesn't make sense to collect the new style meeple and not the tiles.
That is unless you're going to modify the 5-10 tiles with gardens on them.

Given the effort, just buy the new edition - if you're serious about acquiring the rarities you listed, getting a new base-game isn't too hard!

But who knows - Good luck!

I intend to use them for the Dutch, Belgian & German Monasteries  ;)

Yep, I have considered that too. Having one monk-only follower that can bail from a cloister is certainly a benefit, even without any gardens. But, I'm also thinking about (a) making my own classic-art garden tiles or (b) letting my abbots1 deploy to vineyards as though they were gardens.

1. I bought Carcassonne II for cheap from Walmart specifically for (only) the abbots. The rest of the contents are up for sale. No rush; I'm not in any danger of the new art turning into a collection for me (now that I own a little of it, I like it even less than before). But there's no sense having all those tiles go to waste in my closet.

I'm doing the same, to keep the Monastaries from becoming too powerfull. So we have a house rule that you can clame it with a normal meeple as a cloister, or with the abbot as a monastarie.
Maybe you can find some abbot meeples in the extra colours (grey etc) and paint them? I think Cundco and Boardgameextras have them in several colours

As just another possibility, before I bit the bullet and bought a C-II, I considered ordering these "temples" from spielematerial.de (https://www.spielematerial.de/en/tempel.html) to use as proxy-abbots:
