Hi there!

Out of a whim I created this page to simulate the Land Surveyors scoring tiles on your PC, tablet, or phone while playing.

http://wikicarpedia.com/index.php/The_Land_Surveyors_Simulator

Your thoughts are welcome.

Cheers!

Perfect when somebody wants to try if print or not.

Hello,
I'm a newcomer. Sorry if I'm not in the right section ! :'(
Would like to help in the release of Wikicarpedia. However, I can only help for the french section.  :-[
I have the rules for the missing "The Messenger/FR" page. How/where to share to make it be published ?
Thanks a lot for your help !

Hi Gagoune,

Welcome to Carcassonne Central! You are most welcome to enjoy the forum and join the WICA team.

I will send you a PM with some information so you can get started. You are also lucky since there is another very active French member in the team: Black Bear.

In the meantime, just let us know about the type of games you like and what expansions you prefer to use...  ;D

Cheers!

Hi all,

Hope you all have enjoyed a good summer vacation.

It's been a while (June 27th :o:o) since I don't share with you the latest updates to WICA.

Hope you may find interesting a new treat we added, the online Land Surveyor Simulator (available on the Main Page, section Tools), that will allow you to play this expansion without creating the scoring tiles and getting your hands dirty...  ;)

You may also find some additional pages translated into Dutch (by Kiap1969), French (by Black Bear), German (by Murphy013), Romanian (by Carcassonne93).

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!

Last but not least, here you are a summary of the updates you may find in WICA:

Hi Kirk,

Thank you for your kind words. I'm glad to hear you find it useful. We have put a lot of enthusiasm into it. It is a living project and we are always looking for new stuff to add or improve.

For example, although maybe nobody would care at this point, I just updated the rules of The Catapult after finding out that the rules for the Seduction token were mistranslated by RGG (you can actually seduce one of your own meeples not only someone else's) and the HiG original rules and a FAQ by HiG (available online until 8/2017) confirmed that. :o

I know this is a distressing piece of news! Hope you can process it properly ;)

Cheers!

All of a sudden, I have a new interest in The Catapult.
