Another item moved from "no interest" to "owns"!  >:D

This never happens! I swear!  >:D

Played right away after opening, and even 20 tiles is still a great game!  This goes everywhere now...

Congrats for this great find! A quick fix anywhere!

Would have been great if this plus Carc für 2 added up to a base game.  Maybe they can publish a 4-tile add-on with CCCC, CRFF, CFFR, and something like RRRF with roads connected…

My whole C2 collection is these little tiles and I like that…

Haven't posted in a while, so a quick update:
I've been expanding my collection of Spanish/Portuguese versions, with a few of these beauties:




Today i've been very lucky with multiple deliveries, such as this magazine:

I've had the tiles for quite a while, but never actually had the magazine  :o

And today i also received this:


And with that, i've completed the set of 9(!) different English language released of the C1 base game:

Is it normal for orders posted from Cundco to sit in a German airport saying they are cleared and awaiting international departure for 2 months? I've place 3 orders between November and mid January and all are sitting awaiting international departure. I've received 3 other small parcels from Deutche Post ordered later and all arrived. I'm not impatient, just hoping to know whether this is worrying or normal?

Excited to be receiving C1 Count, King and Robber in the post today though! :-D

When things are sent via a national postal service, once the item leaves the country it is no longer tracked. Your national postal service may or may not provide tracking once it arrives in your country.

Exactly! This morning i checked my front porch only to find....
Another delivery  ;D

But apart from my very friendly postman, i also had a very special delivery from Halfling, who visited in person for a delivery of new additions to the museum, but also for a nice cup of tea and a good catch up!

...and maybe a game of Carcassonne?!   I hope the museum cafe has plenty of options... :)

Well, since I fancy myself a player and not much of a collector, I decided to buy an 83-percent Belagerer, at less than 50-percent of the price!  It arrived today:

I smiled at the Customs label: "Gift".  If only!

I know this is a pie-crust promise, but my C1 collection is now complete, and I think my profile is actually an accurate reflection of my status.

(One possible exception: At the right price, I would be interested in the very cool Müller Exklusiv edition, mostly for the cool tin box and the complete Belagerer...)

I'm gonna post in the "how do you store your collection" soon, hopefully over the weekend.

In the mean time, eager to further develop my Belagerer variant...  >:D

Carcassonne Safari has arrived, which fills that gap in my spin-off collection and gives the two promo tiles from Markets of Leipzig a box to live in.



Now I need to upgrade this spin-off with a tile draw bag and watering hole draw bag.

My custom stickers also arrived!



And this is what the custom stickers are for:



Now I need to wait for my second ArtBin case to show up so that I can apply the second edition sticker to it.
