I'm in. Very pleased to add this beautiful tile as the seal on my Carcassonne collection.

Picked up a Tower, my precious new edition labyrinths and a couple of other minis that I don't really need and will probably sell on at cost to cover the delivery.

That's kind of logical imo.
They said it would be available during Spiel. Spiel would last from 22nd to the 25th.

Maybe they waited with removal until the American 25th was over or they removed it when they were at work.
I hope the best for you, for all the people who didnt get it.
Good luck with getting it at the advent sale, otherwise Ebay isn't a fun place to go for youre wallet.

Glad I got mine in time. I don't own any of the previous years' special tiles since they're very expensive and not a single one of them has an unique design, but this year's does. No other tile has that configuration.

But other do have a unique configuration (not all of them but, some). Though I agree that this one seems special.

Drodo · « **Reply #83 on:** October 26, 2020, 02:19:08 PM »

2014 to 2017 all have a very generic tile configuration.

The 2018 one is a 4 roads with no intersection tile, it exists in the expansion 7 (Catapult) and a similar one with 3 roads in expansion 5.

The 2019 one exists in expansion 9, except it has a bridge but it's just decorative, it does not connect the 2 city segments, no gates are shown. If it was meant to connect, the artwork for it was poorly done then. Also connecting them would take away everything that is special about this tile. Its design is meant to be 2 separate cities in one tile that can later be combined at the top, it's great for stealing cities.

I'm sorry if I burst your bubble of bliss. The HiG representatives at Essen'19 told Murphy013 the bridge was connecting both city segments. Nothing but a nice tile in my humble opinion, since it is actually a regular CCCR tile with no extra tactical possibilities. It was reported here:
http://www.carcassonnecentral.com/community/index.php?topic=4398.msg64970#msg64970

However. the Spiel 20 promo tile allows your city to be potentially connected to two different fields... This is so nice

This tile shows a road passing under a city overpass. The overpass connects the city segment at the top with the road segment and the field at the bottom, so the city touches both fields. There are two field segments spanning under the overpass. The scenes featured are just decorative and have no special rules. i have a dubt,how many field there are in this spiel?i read the rule,but maybe understand that there are only 2 field to put farmer?or 4 field?

There are two field segments, one on each side of the road running from left to right:

The field segments continue under the city overpass in a similar way to what happens with the large bridge on this River II tile:

This large bridge does not split the field segments. There are two fields - one eastward and one westward.

I missed out on getting the tile. But I see that it's supposed to be available in November. Any idea when?

Thank you,

Kirk

Usually late November/ early December although stock doesn't last for very long.

There will be an announcement nearer the time and others here will be keen to get hold of it too, so stay tuned!
