Finally received my Cundco order placed on Oct. 16th, almost 2 months to the day! When I reached them by email (about a month ago) they were apologetic and blamed the problems on the website change over.

It contained the Star Wars edition, Start tableau and a few odds and ends. Sadly no little extras for the trouble that others received.

Wanna play Carc? Can we add just one more expansion?

I don't believe it! >:( Amazon.com have delivered this almost a week earlier than expected, but they've completely mucked up the delivery address! As is obvious from the picture above, they've clearly delivered it to quevy by mistake! ::)

Some early Christmas presents from my parents (including a very injured & discounted box of San Juan 2nd edition).

My little one and two year old daughters love playing with The Phantom case/meeples. :)

Great picture @stalcupojoy - Thanks for sharing with us. Goldmines and Ferries are probably my favourite minis, hope you enjoy them  :(y)

My Christmas gift from Rosco arrived a few days ago.  A fantastic suprize and high level of workmanship. Thanks you very much!

12 is my house number, if anyone was wondering.  Now my postman will know exactly what to do with any meeple shaped packages :D

I have posted a link to a photo (with another of my wife's owls) in case others have not received theirs yet and want to keep the worthwhile suprize!

Merry Christmas Rosco & family! May you always draw fortuitous cloisters :)

My Christmas project is somewhat delayed, hopefully it'll be out of the door early next week; but probably a little late for Christmas morning now :(

I haven't sent them to everyone I planned to but I will try to make some more soon.  I have a limited supply of slate and the slate is re - purposed roof slates from the quarries in the Lake District.

The ones sent so far are from a 300 year old house.  The slates will be only about half that age though.
Just lay the damn tile!

If I place it carefully hopefully it will still be here in 150yrs :)

That 300yr house must have had a damp top floor if it took them that long to put roof tiles on it :D  :@ :@

Very nice card kettle.  This gives me an idea: perhaps we could have a small game to make Christmas pictures with coloured meeple.

We all knew you'd end up with those expansions someday. You can't get away from Carc2.0. It is your...destiny...

Yes - I've got the two expansions because I did the correction reading for the German rules. I still haven't the base game CC II.
I need the rule books - for the clarification of rules. The wooden figures will land into my supply of Carcassonne figures - sorted by colours.
The tiles: I need more "blanc" tiles - that means I remove the graphics from the new edition - and then I have 42 new blanc tiles.

This is awesome. About as vindictive as you can be without actually burning a copy. Love it!

Can your postman dig a hole through the Earth to make Cundco shipping cheaper?
