I hope they don't find out about each other - they might get upset

The mystery of my Oxford packages is finally revealed!



And for those who aren't following the Thirsty Meeples thread, these were hand-delivered to me by danispostman!

Who got a smudge on the tile?

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

Look what I recieved yesterday.  Photo is a bit dark sorry.  Made a silly offer on ebay and won it. everything is still sealed and wrapped inside.  A good find.  Now the question is; should I open it for the phantoms? Or should I keep it as is? Or should I sell it as is?

The meeple inside are equivalent to phantoms. There are only 5 colours and the dye is very slightly different. But there's 40 coloured phantoms inside that box.

No, there are eight sets (minus purple) of the Phantom included, as well as the Festival.  ;)

I wouldn't be too hard on yourself. Technically you're right as the 10-year edition does include The Festival. And whilst the meeples that come with it are translucent and very similar to phantoms, it doesn't claim that they actually are phantoms anywhere to the best of my knowledge.

I'd say the best thing about this edition is the score track. Mine isn't to hand at the moment, but I believe the tiles are slightly thinner than regular Carcassonne tiles too?

I've got a very special delivery yesterday: Udo Schmitz (Carcassonne-on-Tour) brought me these latest expansions that I didn't have in my collection till the moment!
Also yesterday in the airport I said hello to Klaus-Jürgen Wrede, which will be today on the special Carcassonne game night.
