Ahhh those images bring me back to childhood, when I would visit my grandparents. It seemed like every electronic except the coffee maker toaster had plastic coverings or crocheted covers, lol.

Damn, was about to order but I was trying to calculate how many of those sleeves I would need for CI / CII / All spinoff ...

well, it's about 720 + 640 + ca. 13*80 soooo 2400 sleeves ....

I'm not sure I'm gonna be able to sleeve all that :)

Could somebody please share a photo with a tile in the sleeve so that I can have an idea what this is?
Thank you!  :)

And question:
I imagine that you remove the sleeves when you play with the tiles?

Here's a picture of a few sleeved tiles, including some halflings:


It increases the space in between the tiles slightly.
I don't think anyone would remove the sleeves before playing, as they are not really meant to be reusable. I cut my sleeves down slightly for every tile, not just halflings, so it would be a big waste to have to do that over and over again after every game

The purpose of the sleeves is to protect the tiles WHILE people are touching them, so if sleeving is important to you, it's especially important during gameplay rather than while in storage.

(I'm personally not into sleeving, with the exception of my Dominion cards.)

Ah thanks a lot @Willem for the photos, now I can see better  :D
And thanks to both of you for the explanations.
So they are adhesive but you CAN take them off without harming the tile, correct?

I was wondering if this could be something I am interested in, but I am not sure.
I like touching the tiles while playing but I can see that tiles get used and scratched and roughened.
I just bought a new (unused) C1 base game because our tiles show white sign of being worn.
This is why this threat caused my attention, but I cannot imagine playing with sleeves, I guess.
I have to think about it  :)

But thanks for the quick reply  :(y)

Yes, if you want, you can take them off.
I would agree with Scott that it defeats the purpose a bit, but of course it's up to you.
And the sleeves are not great at being reused, so they will probably not like it
