so the only difference is that the game area is divided in N end S instead of N, S, E, W?

Yes, only two halves instead of four quadrants.

Isn't there a difference in the colour of farms as well?
Having seen pictures of the Spielbox edition, the green of the farms seems quite similar to the green of the original game (while the HIG windrose tiles have a different, darker shade of green). Could someone confirm this please?

Here is a scan of the tiles.

Thanks, kettlefish.
I think the difference is quite spectacular.
This is a strange thing since the dark green farm colour was rather a Spielbox-characteristic so far (e.g. the tiles of The Plague).

It's quite disappointing when original tiles come out and are looking worse than some of the fan-made ones.
I think it is terrible when the colours differ so much from expansion to expansion.

Yes, I agree. It's a shame because these colour differences can completely destroy the uniform look of the game area.

Carcatronn has the English Spielbox rules.

I sure do! I will try to scan them or type them up tomorrow. There is not much difference from the HiG version, aside from the quadrants.

Didn't have time today to scan these. I will do my best tomorrow night as it has been a busy week...

I was thinking... if we combine windrose (HIG) and windrosen (spielbox) with the two way to make point, is better put one or two blue windrose tile?

It does not matter much. It will just be one among many other tiles. Personally I would use both, but it is your game and you play it the way you want.

Hello. I'm totally confused. After reading in this forums I can understand that are four versions of Wind Rose.
one distributed with Spielbox german NSOW
another distributed with Spielbox english NS
another distributed on Carcassonne on Tour, has different rules and is in what language? is this the HiG version spoken about in previous posts?

to clarify, I don't want an O on the tile, I prefer an E instead or nothing. what to buy and from where? I live in Europe.

Fritz_Spinne · « **Reply #72 on:** October 31, 2013, 04:06:36 AM »

Hello danielbrie, I suggest to buy the spielbox version (only N and S on the tiles) and to play either with the carcassonne on tour - rules (4 quadrants) or the spielbox rules (2 halves). You can buy it on the spielbox homepage http://www.spielbox.de/ .

aenima · « **Reply #73 on:** October 31, 2013, 05:01:35 AM »

nono, they are only 2... one from spielbox (N, S) with german or english rules and one from HIG (N, S, W, O) originally released in 2012 and in few days avaible on cundco.de too
