Yay!! Thank you so much, Yellow!!!! =^_^= They look great!! You cheered up my day!!  :D *hugzees*  :red-meeple: :meeple: :green-meeple: :blue-meeple: :(y)



Lol! Not sure if you or me is more cheering that it arrived. Had me worried there!  :@

Glad they arrived safely and that the postmen did not play Carcassone in the sauna all week!  ^-^

Yeah I was worried too... :( Over one week for a 1st class letter from Sweden to arrive in Finland... CRAZY!!!  :o

Our post is seriously slow... And someone at the post office is still holding on to my Halloween SailorMoon costume from China...  >:( That one never arrived, so indeed I was worried about Darmstadt tiles..  :-\

A relief and happy joy feeling that they arrived!! =^_^=

THANK YOU YELLOW!!  ;D :(y) :(y) :(y) Merit for you!

Hi

Today i had 2 parcels - one was a very special one from Yellow - Some catapult tiles which i needed after i was soreley disappointed after i bought the catapult expansion and it was missing most of the tiles.  Yellow kindly offer some that he had and I recieved them today - thanks yellow!

The other parcel was an ebay bargain - 2 sets of phantoms, 1 set of river 1, and a set of windroses(still vac packed) - very very cheap

Unfortunately the pic wont load so you will have to take my word for it that they are all awesome!!

Thanks again yellow

Just lay the damn tile!

Anytime! Glad they finally arrived.

Seems the Swedish post offering a 3 day delivery worldwide is utter bull. Or maybe it's just available to United Kingdom and USA. Those are known to get their stuff within 3-5 days, even packages.

But, as long as they arrive we shall rejoice!  :))

It's very pretty.  Rather than clutter this thread, I've written a preliminary review over here:

Basically Wooden Big Box

I need to get some tiles in it now!   ;D

Not exactly about the postman, but still I want to share my new purchase.
This was the last copy in our local board game shop and it's been there for a while, so the box was a little bit scratched from one side (everything is untouched inside), but I received a discount for this, so together for a lot of wood I paid 18.80 EUR.

Good deal! So is this exactly the same inside as the version that comes in the wooden box?

I don't know what comes in the wooden box, but it seems it is the same as quevy received recently.

I'm not really into expensive gadgets as such (hence no iPhone/ iPad etc), but Jere was so keen to play me on the Carcassonne iOS app that he sold me his old iPod Touch:  :)



I'm up and running with it now, as - yep, you've guessed it - danisthirty. I haven't bought any of the expansions yet but I'm open to friend requests/ challenges and the like!  :blue-meeple: :(y)

I own both versions and the content is the same.
A knight is sworn to valour.
His heart knows only virtue.
His blade defends the helpless.
His might upholds the weak.
His word speaks only truth.
His wrath undoes the wicked.
