Hi all,
It's been a while (May 15th
) since I don't share with you the latest updates to WICA.
Hope you may find interesting new pages such as:
* The official PnP fan expansions
- Easter in Carcassonne for C1
- The City Gates for C1
- The Fortune Teller for C1 and C2
* The Visual Timelines for C1 and C2 created by Murphy013
* The Digital Versions of Carcassonne compiled by Carlium
* The Demo Spiel
* The PnP Demo
You may also find a lot of pages have been translated into Dutch (by Kiap1969), French (by Black Bear), German (by Murphy013), Romanian (by Carcassonne93), Russian (by Levetator) and Spanish (by me - only a few
).
A number of visual improvements have been introduced too: images of box covers, punchboards of mini expansions, general layout of C2 pages,... Murphy013 is working hard to collect images for every published box and mini. Some of the results are already visible in all pages.
Regarding contents, an on-going improvement process is taking place as to wording and the addition of clarifications in text and with examples... The input of the team is being invaluable; while translating, they are also proofreading the C2 pages. You may also see the myriad of questions posted as comments on many pages by Carcassonne93 and some visitors that may point out the need for corrections or additional clarifications. Thank you all for your enthusiasm!
