How frustrating!

Seems an odd choice to have set packages when most of the people seeking out the cundco website will be the long term Carcassonne players after bits - the ones that might already have a number of components from the packages! What happened to the nice way of going about it from previous years? One day I hope they will do what other publishers/bgg geek store do and just have it available to buy (would also stop silly prices on eBay) ...

Aww, poor Catapult is greyed out in the expansions list. :-(

I also note that Wheel of Fortune, Mayflower/New World, Discovery, Castle, and City are all missing. I guess they're all dead now. Strange, even Hunters & Gatherers is not listed and that just was re-released.

Greyed-out but still present!

I wonder if they intend to produce another Catapult expanion, albeit completely redesigned?

It's a shame it looks like they still don't include a cloth bag when it includes Traders & Builders!

I'm at the point where despite being in the old edition camp, I *may* buy into the new, though only when they create a Big Box with more new expansions (such as Under the Big Top). That way I can justify it to my Wife  ;D

I won't be purchasing it, so I'm on the 'Not interested and not buying it' poll option.

In an ideal super completionist world, I'd probably pick it up if it was within a new edition Big Box, however I don't think I could justify it when 1) I don't think I want to get Carcassonne and all it's expansions again 2) The theme seems to be 'jumping the shark' to me so it's a turn-off (at least the terrible Catapult was at least somewhat medieval-themed!) and finally 3) my Wife will kill me if I get duplicate (in her eyes) Carcassonne-based board games, taking up even more shelf space! :p

I kinda feel like I've completed my (1st edition) collection  so I'm happy without. Having said that, in a few years time, if I see a 2nd edition big box featuring multiple completely new expansions for a very cheap price................maybe.

I well be getting it. Just waiting for the Spiel tie to be listed as well.
Do you want me to order 2 of The Watchtower, one for you?

This is my exact thoughts too - just waiting for that 'kill two birds with one stone' opportunity :D

Bah, I was very much happy with my original art edition collection and had no desire to get the new art, but the Carcassonne completionist in me doesn't agree :(

I just had a look and the Winter Crop Circle and Watchtower tiles are on there!

Unfortunately upon going to check out, I hit a brick wall in the form of a 403 page  :P

@SRBO - please see the attached image of the 5 unmarked tiles. If they are of use to you and Halfling is happy with the setup, I can send those to you.

@Halfling - sounds good to me. If you're happy split up those tiles (if they are the ones SRBO is after) and still would like to proceed, let me know what delivery you'd like (Standard 1st class is £3.35, however you may want 2nd class or confirmed, etc -http://www.royalmail.com/sites/default/files/RoyalMail_2016_Prices.pdf) and we can take it from there :)

The Marketplace / WTS [Dutch] Wheel of Fortune (partially completed)
« on: September 28, 2016, 09:49:46 PM »
Hi all,

I've got a spare Dutch version of Wheel of Fortune to sell. It's partially complete - missing 9 WoF tiles (63 out of 72) and 1 black meeple.

Apart from those missing items, it also includes:

* 11 River tiles (no watermark) - though its missing 1 tile, it still has a river source and end tile.

* 1x blue tile bag (not normally included with WoF!)

* 5x Misc tiles (presumably from the non-watermarked Dutch I&C)

Apart from the missing tiles and odd additions (I bought this previously under a bit a rather misleading advert - 'new & sealed' apparently! :P), the condition is good.

Would be handy for spares or if you can source the missing tiles, another copy of WoF.

I am happy to look at whatever offers you feel are fair!

Hey Halfling,

I reckon £10 + delivery, though I'm happy to negotiate  ^-^.

I'm going to post in a new WTS thread just for ease, where I'll also stick a photo too.

Slim pickings, post-wise for me this week!

...However, as a recent owner of the Dutch Wheel of Fortune version, it's a handy item that Mr. Postman left for me this morning!

Yay - I finally have a new, sealed Wheel of Fortune! It's taken awhile, but I got there  :))

It's the Dutch version, however I asked Z-Man games nicely a couple of weeks ago (I had an incomplete WoF prior)if they have any spare parts, with the language-free WoF board in mind and if I could pay for it, however they rather kindly just put it in the post for me, so I look forward to that arriving!

Now I have a spare newish, incomplete Dutch WoF (everything is good as new)if anyone's interested  :)). It is missing 9 WoF tiles, however it comes with an watermark free River, a few watermark-free I&C tiles and a tiles bag (I believe these are from the Dutch I&C expansion just called 'The expansion''. I guess I'll stick it on its own WTS thread/throw it on ebay when I'm back from work!

Anything Else / Re: I love the local store...
« on: September 21, 2016, 08:56:27 AM »
Yep. I even went as far as planning a kickstarter to make them print 1000 set of many of the old expansions. x_x

Plan was to sell them to people that still wanted them, cheap and keep the rest. 100.000 tiles next game...
I would back that  :D ;D

In the meantime I'll be in London from 14 to 15 next month, is there any local store worth visiting? Preferably in the Wimbledon area.

There's a small games store called 'Orc's Nest' not far from Covent Garden which has a surprisingly large amount of games considering its size (though 'London' prices :P). Probably a little far if you're not straying away from Wimbledon, though I thought I'd suggest it in case :)

Wow, they're pretty regular with the content on the iOS one aren't they? Though I know that the Android version is made by different guys, I wish it had as much love as this one!
