Title: CarcII Expansions Made Into CarcI Artwork?
Post by: ARabidMeerkat on May 30, 2020, 08:58:39 AM
Does anyone know if some expansions that have only been released in the new artwork (Gardens, Watchtowers and Under The Big Top) are being recreated by some artist back into the original artwork (of course, this wouldn't be an official release)?

2. Garden tiles for Abbot in C1 design for replace tiles without gardens in Basic Game, River I, Expansion 1, Expansion 2, Expansion 3, Expansion 4, Expansion 5 and Expansion 6. I'm not sure if they eplace all of them.

I am not interested in the gardens at all, but if anyone is going to go to the trouble of making old art tiles for "Under the Big Top", Watchtowers, Toll Collectors, Barber/Surgeons, or the Fruit Trees, I would like a copy as well.  I will gladly pay for all of the blank tiles (yours and mine) and shipping from Cundco to you as well as shipping of my copy to me. 

It wouldn't be fair for anyone to make money on these tiles, but I do believe it is fair to help someone cover their costs.  Plus I already own all of these expansions, except the toll collectors, in the new art.  I plan to buy the toll collectors in the fall when something new is released. 

I tried to make my own tiles in March and ended up throwing my color printer in the garbage after making a huge mess.  :-[

Anyway, I played Toll keepers last week for first time.
Very interesting expansion with a lot of fun and scoring points ;-)

Thank you all for your replies! I am one of those players who is stuck in CarC 1. My wife and I got into the game about 2015 and have loved playing it since but we refuse to buy the new artwork versions since we have all of the expansions already (including a £40 eBay purchase of The Plague).

We did buy some abbots from Cundco to use in the monasteries and are a little bit worried that some amazing game changes may come which would tempt people (like us) to buy CarC 2

Worth noting that The Plague plays very well when included with the new art tiles.  The fleas trying to reach the Abbots before the player takes them back from unfinished gardens or monasteries.

Sorry to majorly necro. I tried to open those links but after registering there, I got a "You are not authorised to read this forum." error. Does anyone have these files, specifically the Abbot files?

The download section of that forum becomes accessible once your post count reaches a certain threshold. I forget the number.

It should be more than 16. (That is the number of my posts, but that is still not enough to get authorization to the download section.  :( )
