I love my post(wo)man too, every day im waiting on her. Today im looking out of my window every 15 min. :-[
Like, is it me or are a lot of boxes adorned with slightly amorous looking women? Like new And old basegame, winter carcassonne, southseas....
Double doozy today! I got my Halflings from Cundco (along with a second set of 50/100 tiles) and also got kettlefish's special items. She hooked me up with a bunch of things including The Besiegers, the Spiel2014 tile, a very odd sticker signed by Klaus, a postcard, and a special punch-out version of Bohnanza. Very cool. With the Cundco package, I also got a pink Meeple-on-Board sticker as a bonus present from them. All I'm waiting for now is the Darmstadt expansion!
I'm looking forward to using the signed tiles in my next game. Is the standard rule to award a bonus 10 points for playing a signed tile?Yes I think that was my idea and Klaus-Jürgen Wrede liked it too.
I too have had a mis-order from cundco, after numerous perfect ones. They sent me half and half instead of the beleagerers. Never mind I was going to get half and half anyway! Just waiting for my new order to come in the post!
I wonder if they are just really busy at the moment?
Yep, it’s available from cundco.de.Good points.. I ordered the Sheriff from Cundco, and I don't even have the game yet. I'm anxious to play it - nnot sure I can wait until mid-December when Z-Man releases the English version. I'm going to post in Marketplace, see if anyone over in the EU could help. :)
Cundco is great if you’re spending up to 10 Euros, but as soon as you spend more than this the cost of international postage shoots up somewhat dramatically. Unfortunately Gold Rush costs 20 Euros, and postage is a further 23.50. So unless you’re prepared to fork out the extra money for postage (or find several other interested parties who would also like a copy and are willing to split the postage between you) then it may be better to wait for Z-Man to release it locally for you.
The other thing is that if you buy from Cundco you’ll get the German edition (although translated rules are available)...
Where is the translation of that expansion again? Link me!
Here's what the mailman brought to my house today.
And this is what the postie brought me.
South seas
Hunters gatherers
Besiegers
German cloisters
And some carc sweeties!
No, i have the version whit wooden box.Here's what the mailman brought to my house today.
Is that your first copy of the City?
So Hunters and Gatherers box is orange in the netherlands? Crazy, I thought it were green all around the world!999-Games use often other cover colours then the rest of the world.
Yep, it’s available from cundco.de.
Cundco is great if you’re spending up to 10 Euros.......
Nice! I like that version of the Festival too...just because the tile quality is closer to original. They are thicker and of the same texture (less linen relief), than what came in the Anniversary edition.

But unfortunately a different colour green in the fields from almost everything else (except the Plague).
Today the postman delivered to my house 2 copies of "Darmstadt"

It looks like we have another game night next Tuesday, this time with a third player, so we'll definitely play with the Ark then!
How does that work? This game night? I think I missed a lot of these game threads fill me in?

It's a night where real people get together and play games in person, so if you want to fly to Geneva on Tuesday there will be some Carcassonne action waiting for you when you get here. We'll even let you be yellow. :)

you are really crazy... ;D
Wow, great day for you Darwin! I am waiting for a few things in the post, hopefully they'll come soon...Great day :) and I won 4 out of 5 games with The City tonight >:D
Today's delivery from the postman:
{picture of cool stuff}
It almost seems like a race to buy more :)
Good purchases yellow.
They were on sale as well. 10-11 Euro. They are not for me though. Gonna contact the buyers later during the night or tomorrow. :(y)

Ooh, am I one of them? I like it when things are on sale :green-meeple:
It's a standalone game and rather rare. If you don't want it, I am sure a lot of other people her are interested, included meemoji code6]
I love the postman as well!
Thought my present wasn't Carcassone-related, it WAS game-related:

(For those who can't place it, it's a playfield for a '94 Pinball game involving Football (Soccer for us Americans..) - basically a piece of hardwood, with paint and plastic light inserts mounted in.)
I also received a gift from quevy. Grazie amico!
Thank you from me too, quevy! :D
Great Christmas gift! :(y) ^-^
Thank you, Quevy!
This was really something special in my case, for I have been so busy I completely forgot all about it. :(y)

Haha, and keeping all the boxes too!!!
This reminds me. One of the boxes (Catapult) is actually a little crushed on the bottom half's corner. I still have it, but this means my collection is not 100% pure minty. Store sold it to me for 5 Euro.

I can't believe how cheap and readily available everything seems to be in Sweden! If I pop into my local gaming shop I would be hard-pushed to find anything Carcassonne-related for less than around £15/ 20 Euros (with or without damage) or more exotic and hard to find than Inns & Cathedrals. :o

With prices like the ones you're able to take advantage of I'm surprised it's taking you so long to grow your collection! ;)
A good day for me too! Christmas has come early...

I was in awe of your sense of humour when it first arrived as I thought you'd written "Contents: Joy" on the outside of the box! But then my wife pointed out that it actually said "Toy". The fact of the matter is that it contained both...
I also got an early Christmas present in the post today and it was also toy/joy! Thanks Yellow! :meeple:Congratulation! The Castle is the best spin of game in the Car series in my opinion. Enjoy! :D

Dan - I haven't recieved mine yet. :-/
Yesterday, I was about to throw away the packaging from cundco's last shipment , when suddenly another spiel '14 tile dropped out.
I thought they'd only sent me one - looks like my poem was good enough for two :D
Now if I had a camera.....

This is intriguing. I'd like to see the rules too.
I received my package from the Carcassonne Shoppe yesterday, and very quickly I might add. Merry Christmas to me! ;D Thanks Ted!
It was pretty surreal, when it dropped out. I wrote 3 Christmas/Carcassonne haikus :D
Let's hope you don't get any Carcassonne Wrapping paper from http://www.carcassonneshoppe.com/ , you'd definitely lose a few tiles in there!
:D
The postman delivered this now, my collection is complete.

I'm really sorry, but for the holiday I came back in Italy to my family... and all my carcassonne stuff and files has remained in Belgium where I live...:D
Seriously, what is going on with those tiles?? They look factory made. Exquisite. Can't wait to know the rules!
Rosco: just what I paid for it: which was £12 + postage. I ordered it from Milestone games, but it looks like they don't have any left. It's pretty steep for the expansion, On the plus side, I don't have to buy a box to post it; just let me know if I can help.
Mr Yellow's Ark of The Covenant arrived! [Round of Applause] Thank you very much :D
!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! What archive did you rob?!
I'm going to have to ask - the two in the middle are from different publishers to those on the outside. Any interesting differences?
Today I got this in the mail:

Maybe a little expensive, but now my collection is complete (except La Porxada which I newer expect to get hold of :'( ).
JungleBoy, does that mean I don't need Cathars because I got Siege?
What's all that? I haven't the foggiest; it's all in German! :))
I was going to say which city. But then I decided a meeple that big could claim all the elements in the tile.

It would be a bit hard to claim the little farm between the two city segments though!
It does not have to be big
It does not have to be expensive
It does not have to be from someone you care very much about
It does not have to be from someone because you earned it
All that matter is the gesture, and if truly worthy a such, you will be surprised
Amazed in awe, smiling grand, I think we both know this was one hell of a nice thing you did
Thank you, Dan!

You're welcome. Have you seen these available to buy elsewhere recently then? These were from meeplesource as part of their Kickstarter. There are some on their site at the moment but they're not the same as far as I'm aware...

http://www.meeplesource.com/proddetail.php?prod=Wheat (http://www.meeplesource.com/proddetail.php?prod=Wheat)I did see these but wasn't sure if they're the same as the ones I got as the design looks much busier on this photo. They're certainly very similar anyway, possibly the same.
http://www.meeplesource.com/proddetail.php?prod=Wine (http://www.meeplesource.com/proddetail.php?prod=Wine) (a little too cute for me!)Saw these too, but I'm not a fan of these either!
None of the tokens I sent to those who reached the knock-out stage of the World Cup are available on meeplesource as far as I can see by scanning through their "Premium Resource Bits" on the site. They were only available, as far as I was aware, via their Kickstarter campaign which they ran in February/ March last year. This is why I was interested to know where MrNumbers had seen these available to buy as I'd happily buy more if I could find any (I bought enough bits for 9 sets and gave 7 away). The barrels were simply their "Barrel" bits (Kickstarter) but I can't find these on the site either.
Thanks danisthirty. These arrived today. The Mega Meeple and sticker sheet are for being the hugest scoring looser. Sorting the highest score in a game that I lost.
Look what I got in the mail today!! :D

THANK YOU! =^_^= I'm happy! :(y)
They definitely still sell red cloth bits and wheat/grain bits. Alas, no barrels--but they do have wine:

They're not the same as the ones I sent out to World Cup participants (these are 3D, like little barrels rather than flat, barrel-shaped tokens), but meeplesource did give me a big bag of these for free and they're pretty neat! :(y)
Yesterday I got some industrial paint on my pants that I know won't come out in the wash. I immediately ordered another pair on-line and received them today. ;D
Though I'm not suppose to judge a book by its cover, the 3rd book has a glittery cover which is totally unlike anything I've ever seen. The photo hardly begins to do it justice. It's spectacular!
Did you notice that Carcassonne City in the background of the J-books has blue roofs!
Seems that the guys over there did some advanced research on the town. XD
And maybe THIS is the reason why we have that problem with Carc II at the moment. :o
Well there are strategies detailed in the book so she might know something we don't :o
Look what I got in the mail today!!!! :D

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
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?

That's Cathars, Cult Siege & Creativity, Crop Circles I, Pink/Purple Robbers & Messengers, and Wind Rosen I
oooohhh!!!
where did you buy cathars and crop circle I?!?
yesterday I received this! directly from Spain where it's still cheap!
oooohhh!!!
where did you buy cathars and crop circle I?!?
I snagged Cathars from the board game geek market; and an ebay seller offered me crop circles after I bought CSS from them. Slightly pricey in total, but not as bad as I was expecting. £18 for a new Cult Siege & Creativity seemed fairly low to say I couldn't see it for sale anywhere else.
Yes it fits.Oh my... Great thing! I need to have it! What about thickness: Is it as thick as our standard tiles? And what does the back look like?

Must admit though that Russian city is niggling at me now.Oh no! The virus caused an epidemic!
Looks what arrived for me today!Hey, congrats! I'm quite fine with your definition of "complete". In my personal opinion "complete" means Belagerer + either Cathars or Siege, since C and S are (nearly) identical, but B is different. But, never ever wood I play with 10 Belagerer tiles, as this would be a point masacre without any fun! So being owner of six Belagerer tiles is absolutely complete (also, because HiG stated that this was the official reprint). ;D

That's a Belagerers (which in terms of the way I view completeness basically counts as a Cathars and a Siege for me too, though I'm sure some of you think that's sacrilege) and a Plague. Fortunately, the latter was shrink-wrapped because just about every token had popped out of the frame, hence you don't see it here.
Very much looking forward to playing with these soon. Thanks, Ted!
Wow, your Plague fleas are all over the place. Mine were nice and centred. I wonder what happened.
oooohhh!!!
where did you buy cathars and crop circle I?!?
I snagged Cathars from the board game geek market; and an ebay seller offered me crop circles after I bought CSS from them. Slightly pricey in total, but not as bad as I was expecting. £18 for a new Cult Siege & Creativity seemed fairly low to say I couldn't see it for sale anywhere else.
And how much for the crops and cathar?
Today I received my pimp package from spielmaterial.I suppose, the castles are these (http://www.spielematerial.de/de/spielmaterial/themenwelten/mittelalter/burg-kastell.html) unpainted? Can you please make photos, how they look like on an actual "4 point city"?
(http://i.imgur.com/sn2drj4l.jpg)
From left to right: sheds, houses & towers; sheep; crops, cloth & wine; castles; Robber Baron & King pieces to mark relevant features.

Dan - how on earth did you persuade him to make them. I was emailing him, trying to get some but he flat out refused. They do look simply amazing. I wonder...

They are indeed; grey though, not unpainted. When I was ordering, I was worried that the castles were going to be too small, however it turns out that they're just the right size to fit within the walls of a two tile city and support a follower:
(http://i.imgur.com/dyOJAdjl.jpg) (http://i.imgur.com/AiE310Tl.jpg)
Still, would be nice to have a bit more detail in the design in my opinion.
Without wanting to get too off topic, here are some photos of the others in action if they'll help anyone. I bought the pieces to stand out clearer than the tokens that come in the expansions so that they're more visible when putting together a game of megacarc.
(http://i.imgur.com/q9OEQJxl.jpg)
The Sheep look good with the shepherd.
(http://i.imgur.com/aSQ2CjVl.jpg)
The tower's design could be slightly more in-line with the game's architecture and I probably should have bought a different colour for the houses to distinguish from the sheds; but over all I'm very happy with how these look.
(http://i.imgur.com/NvvCwAJl.jpg)
The trade goods look good sitting in the cities, and match up well with the gold bars from The Goldmines.
BTW, I have a very big bag of invisible phantoms if anyone wants one!What do you meen with "invisible"? Transparent without a color? Could be great for my white set of meeples, I got from CundCo today with some other stuff.
They are certainly awesome, though I'm not sure about accidentally dropping them on the tiles.
Looks to be a great weekend from everyone with a Carcassonne stash!

How many good things have come to you.
Sooner or later we will have to make a gift also to our postmen :)
soooo... finally here it is!!!
http://www.carcassonnecentral.com/community/index.php?action=downloads;sa=view;down=279
:D
First post of many on this thread I hope. ;D
My first order for cundco (Winter Edition on the bottom), on the way for my full collection, three smaller ones already on the way.
Gift bag is always welcome. :(y)
(http://i.imgur.com/84xn9AN.jpg?1)
The idea of this is tacking the WOF parts for my collection and donate the rest to my nephew and nieces to try and boost three new Carcassonne player. O:-)
They were really into it after testing Junior Carcassonne.
Been quite a Carc-heavy week for you in the mail, chooselife!Indeed but I had even more surprises on opening the mail box.
From sheepgames.beOoh a phantom! I'm so jealous, I've been trying to get one myself. Congrats, looks like your collection's coming along quite nicely!

But you just gave me the idea of taking the vineyards tiles on the river III out and put my older similar river I tiles in >:D >:DI thought, River I with River III won't mix. Aren't the rear sides of the tiles different?

Look what Russian postman brought me today! :D
I have that Russian Carcassonne set too but have not got round to photographing it yet...

Man, you just buy everything in sight, don't you? :) But since you hate the Count, and the main purpose of this Russian set seems to be the single Count tile, was that why you bought it or was there another reason?
Here are a bunch of extra tiles as well, but I have to figure out which one are part of WoF and which are not. :) Quick question, those tiles with the small ring on, like a ready sliced pizza, are they part of WoF? :) Some tiles have them, and some don't. Also, where can I find the rules, (preferably Finnish, or English) not the rules in Carc big book, but those "classic sheet rules" that looks like those that comes with the games in the box? :)
Teehee Arthur's awesome! Maybe we need to start a Carcassonne Pet forum post :)
Ouh yeah, it's coming tommorow O0I really hope for mine also! then i can test it directly!

Looks like the base game and the Wheel of Fortune "expansion" from the last BigBox. The tiles with the wheel watermark are the expansion, without watermark are base game. If you play without the WoF ignore the wheels on the tiles.
For the rules in english look here: http://zmangames.com/product-details.php?id=1662

OK, so if I want to include WoF to my basegame, I add not only the tiles with a big fat number on them, but also the "pizza slice" tiles with no numbers? :)
Thank you for the rule thingy!! ^-^ A bit big, but I can print only parts of it, with the WoF stuff on them. :) :(y)
Fresh from ebay:
(http://i.imgur.com/FU6uePb.jpg)
The Plague is still available from Spielbox (http://www.nostheide.de/webshop3/product_info.php?products_id=154), for what it's worth.
I translated the descriptions of the castles over on the castles thread along with the rules. Check it out - it's a great read.

Are the English translated rules a cool sheet like the German one, or just plain text on the forum? :)
I would love to print out a "sheet" like the ones that comes with the tiles. =^_^= But English, of course.
My collection is complete once more (until the next expansion comes out!)Wow, this looks great together. I need that plate too! ;D

Wow. It wasn't that big when I sent it! :o
Interesting that you'd consider your collection incomplete without the 12-in-1 Count tile. Or did you not have the normal Count tiles before this?

I did have The Count before and I wouldn't consider the big tile an essential part of a complete collection. I have just personally wanted that tile since the moment I saw it!

I know what you mean. I've had to start blindfolding myself before visiting here as it can get too expensive otherwise...
....
This is probably the wrong post for this chat though; so no doubt it will carry on on the Castle's thread!
^ooo nice I've got to get my catapult out soon. I play with altered rules. When the carnival tile is drawn, roll the die from the Flying mini-expansion and receive that many tower pieces. At end of the game, take turns trying to catapult tower pieces into a five point cup (if you have remaining meeples in your supply, place on top of tower piece and launch them away for a better chance).
At some point I want to create a three-ringed scoring target, with the innermost ring being 10 points and outermost being 1.
Also those meeples look great danisthirsty =P I can imagine taking things a bit more personally if someone ate one of my own meeples with the dragon though!
That sounds like a very interesting and creative alternative way of using the Catapult Meep; thanks for the suggestion!
Welcome to the forums too by the way :) :(y)
Ohh those do sound like interesting variety rules meep! May give that a go soon!
Got my copy of Castles in Germany today. Unfortunately I won't be playing it for a little while, but they look awesome!
I managed to secure a second-hand Hunters & Gatherers this week, it's now at my house in Australia. Quite happy about that =)
You're missing The City! Well, and the smaller games—Cardcassonne, Carcassonne Travel Edition, and Carcassonne Dice Game.
Hey kettlefish, your gift arrived today in excellent condition. Quick delivery time! I'll save the tiles for rare games with more than eight players as I don't plan to use Klaus's tile at all. Thanks!
Wow! May I ask, was it expensive ?
Recently I have seen it going for over £50
Cheaper than some - I have stopped bidding at 35.
Great, I'm very curious, what's inside. 8)Some danisthirty meeples ?
Great, I'm very curious, what's inside. 8)Some danisthirty meeples ?
I'm looking really forward to have a game with them, these are really special tiles, both having rather rare configurations, and especially the I&C an extra option not possible with any other tile of that configuration, not regarding the expansion typical feature.
Have also to think up a rule for the Tea Baron or whoever that might be. :D
I've got my mail from the UK also today, and can't wait to play with my new tiles :D
I on purpose left my description of the tiles rather vague, to keep the surprise for everybody, who was not made happy by the postman yet. Dan on the other hand did not keep the secret, who made the tiles, so you got my merit for them already and sure will get some more for that great work. Graphic-wise they are gorgeous looking, the finishing of the surface is a little different, but this does not matter at all in my opinion. The edges are highly professional made, that's really hard to achieve as well I think.
I haven't received mine yet and I'm going away for a month tomorrow so I won't see them until I get back. So once everyone else has received theirs, please feel free to discuss them and post photos - don't wait for me.I am very sorry that you have to wait all this time before you see your package.
Hi quevy and danisthirty,
thank you very much for the nice surprising package.
Greetings
kettlefish

I got the nice surprise from Italy. Many thanks Quevy and Dan!! It's brilliant. :)
I also had a very unexpected present from Dan today - it was a double bonus because Dan was also the postman. But just to be clear: I'm not saying I love Dan.
Sorry Dan.
I'll need to buy some more shirts!
today I received in my house an envelope that looked much ilusion¡¡¡¡
my first tile carcassonne¡¡¡¡
corresponding to the league .

jajajaajaj

Alohaaa!!! I got a package in the mail today!!! ;D
But I'm a bit confused, because I'm not in the abbey and mayor league.. So this might be an error? :-[ Should I send it back to someone? :)
But so cool with custom meeple!! Looks just like Dan's avatar!! :D
Oh and the feet is Arhtur's... He is very curious. ;D
How come no one talks about the small premium?You mean that cute barrel? ;) It is very nice :))
MrNumbers you are the owner of the trophy until the next T & B League.I will fight hard to keep it by myself during the next T&B League >:D
Since no one will receive it you can add a photo if you want.
Are you saying a letter can travel around the world quicker than it can travel between two towns within the same Country. Shows how the world is being made smaller these days.
Hello, glad you received the tile OK! (I've removed the photo as not everyone has theirs yet and I didn't want it to spoil the surprise ;))
Your tile is from the Inns & Cathedrals league (it says on it) which you did take part in. Nothing has gone out for the Abbey & Mayor league yet as it is still ongoing. So, no need to send anything on to anyone!
Glad you liked the meeple too! :) :(y)

Oh, so this is for the ins and cathedrals league? :) OK! ;D But, didn't I get my surprises already? ??? The cool meeple bags, the tile and sticker? :) So this is like an extra surprise? ??? COOOL!!! ;D :(y)
I will use the Dan meeple as the teacher. :) Like, in the mini expansion school and the mega many roads to the school. ^-^
I can't be 100% certain (just 99.9%) but I'm pretty sure you've taken part in two of our online competitions. The two listed below:
- World Cup of Carcassonne Central (http://www.carcassonnecentral.com/community/index.php?topic=829.msg10432#msg10432)
- Inns & Cathedrals (http://www.carcassonnecentral.com/community/index.php?topic=1521.msg19590#msg19590)
Hi Paul
nice purchase,
how many tiles in total do you have now?
Wow! What do you plan to do with all of those tiles?
Wow, that's a lot of tiles! You must be able to fill a whole room with a game now!
I will use the Dan meeple as the teacher. :) Like, in the mini expansion school and the mega many roads to the school. ^-^
It included the trophy for winning the 2nd expansion league (Inns & Cathedrals), two new tiles, a little barrel piece, and a Dan meeple.
Wow! What do you plan to do with all of those tiles?
Hopefully set a world record. I'm pretty sure I got the highest tile cound as a private owner by now. This is part of the 10 000 tiles game I'm working on.
-Wow, that's a lot of tiles! You must be able to fill a whole room with a game now!
We'll see. Next month I'll be having the house for myself so the living room will be a good opportunity to do something with all of this then. :)
My idea is to use it as Smart Bob (Dan) the Meeple (https://boardgamegeek.com/thread/645003/carcassonne-smart-bob-meeple-fan-expansion). Hopefully Dan doesn't mind living in small huts on farms. ;)Read this variant, and it sounds interesting. However, I think they left out one very important point in the rules: if you are allowed to move wood twice in a double turn with extra secret tile or not.

You should post pictures of your giant game when you set it up
Finally I love the postman. My package arrived today - I love all parts of said package. Quevy - you are an artist. Dan I still can't believe how much Dan is meeple looks like you.
quevy thanks , did not know what was his design .:)
congratulations
I've just received, this morning, De Kloosters from Jéré. And, now, I have the Carcassonne Central.com business card ! Thank you Jéré.
These people have received awards in the league,
Hounk, B1nder, Kettlefish, Jeré, Decar, Paul, aenima, jma03, SRBO, BabyGamer, MrNumbers, Zone2, Andrew the Ambo, Rosco,
but me and Dan, who is missing?
There's also me :)
MrNumbers you are the owner of the trophy until the next T & B League.
Since no one will receive it you can add a photo if you want.
I got my 2-tilesized monastery last Friday. Thank you Dan! :(y)

ufff I'd really like to have a tile with the autograph... :'(Me too. But the problem is.. I'd want to play it. And then that risks damaging the autograph! Conundrums! :)

I wonder what you would give for a personalised bridges castles and bazaar s box?
I recently received a Brazilian copy of Carcassonne. Unfortunately, this is a 2nd edition - the has a different box and is out of print.
A merit to the first person who notices what's wrong with this picture:
(http://www.tehill.net/carcassonne/postman/20150719_213817.jpg)
That's a difference, but it's not what's wrong! Look even closer :(y)
It does not say 2001 but 2006 or maybe 2008 on the red prize logo?
The year it won the SdJ ? I can't see very well but it seems the year is wrong...
*gives Jéré high-five and buys him a beer* O0

These are great, Decar! And they look so professionally made!
These are great, Decar! And they look so professionally made!
They were professionally made :) I designed them and had them printed from the game crafter. I made some with my name, my husband's name, and my father-in-law's name (all in our favorite colors).
Yesterday I received a lovely gift from Chooselife - the scout tiles from king and scout. I don't have the base game yet but it is in transit so it is much a appreciated. Thanks Chooselife
Great photo! I'd like to use these bags for my meeples too. If I put all the meeples of one colour in the bag, how much space is there left for future expansions?Not really much! ???
(http://www.dan.tehill.net/Stuff_from_Tom2.jpg)
(a few tile-draw bags from Artscow)
This arrived in the mail today. They are so cute! The v2 demo version. The meeples are also smaller. I put a cloister tile for comparison in the picture.What I have to do to have this? :(
Thank you kettlefish and the Carcassonne team!!
Nice. I'm jealous! >:D

I think Carcassonne on tour!
it actually comes with the mini-expansion the sheriff!
The publisher of the Dutch versions of Carcassonne (999 Games) celebrates its 25th anniversary this year, as of last weekend everyone who buys one of their games receives a gift box with a couple of nice small games and demo games — including the Carc v2.0 demo! Very nice surprise.
Would it be at all possible for you to type out the Dutch Sheriff rules or a photo of that section from the rules? It would be greatly appreciated.
And finally, what goodies are in the surprise box? I heard there's also a catan expansion?
Would it be at all possible for you to type out the Dutch Sheriff rules or a photo of that section from the rules? It would be greatly appreciated.
Sure, I've attached them :gray-meeple:.
Between yesterday and today I received an order of material spielmaterial.de and a package from Aenima containing the bags custom school colors missing, has done an outstanding job, thank you very much :)

Just as a “heads up” to everyone who took part in the Abbey & Mayor expansion league, keep a close eye on your letter box over the next week! Sorry it’s taken so long to get these out, and huge thanks to quevy for helping with the postage (and for doing the majority of the work with the actual surprising as well of course). :)
Feel free to post here when you receive yours, but please don’t spoil the surprise for anyone still waiting for theirs by posting any photos until they’ve all reached their intended recipients... C:-)

Much appreciated to all involved.
I also have received the package from Quevy. The content is amazing! Besides, I received the lottery (http://www.carcassonnecentral.com/community/index.php?topic=1927.msg26806#msg26806) prize - wood pieces for fan-expansion The fence and stolen goods (http://www.carcassonnecentral.com/community/index.php?topic=1825.0).
Thank you very much, Quevy! :(y)
quevy and Dan,
I've just received my package. It is awesome as usual, full of surprises (including my prize for winning one of the Carcassonne-mastermind contests). :(y)
Thank you!
I also got my A&M League present today. Thanks a lot and merit! Was a real nice surprise. Great idea, and the bag is also cute.
I've got also my present for the A&M league - thank you so much.
And I've got some surprisings for Udo and KJW. I will forward these to them in around 10 days.
My A&M "prizes" have arrived. They just keep getting better each competition.
Thanks guys.
I still have not received it
:-\
Paul - how many tiles?
Paul...I find your number of tiles disturbing... >:D
World Record Goal: 10 000 tiles. Current: 4300+ draw tiles.
I’m sure he’ll get round to that in good time. He needs to count them and bath with them all first...a tile bath - great - but please Paul - take a photo from this tile bath... ^-^

And please tell us how much time do you need to unwrap all these new tiles.
Perhaps you can take some photos during this work.

these new tiles - are they all from the base game?
Zombie Dan in the next kickstarter?
the scoreboard?yes
I'm going to be so gutted this evening when I get home and find out the Postman DID have a package for me and I DIDNT wait for him :(
the scoreboard?yes
Just received the Carcassonne Winter edition :) - it looks great and I can't wait to play it!
I'm a little bit disappointed though that the version I got didn't include the gingerbread man (despite the website saying it was included), so I will probably order it from cundco along with the new crop circles once it comes out.
don't be disappointed - any excuse to order more from cundco is a good one :)

I've got 10 of each and will only keep 8 so make sure you're at the UK Carcassonne Central meetup this Saturday if you'd like some of my spares! :)
I got some meeples in some exciting new colours today:
I like those colors! Where'd they come from?
From my second-favourite website: meeplesource (http://www.meeplesource.com/products.php?cat=13)! :)
They look great! It's a pity that they don't sell complete sets with builder, mayor, pig, barn, etc. (unless I missed something).
Not yet they don't, and the sets they did sell never included the Robber or the other scoretrack meeple from The Messengers. With any luck cundco will get in on the action before long...
Blimey, that second one looks like it would survive a house fire!
Where did you get the first one, this looks like the sort of thing I need for another game - what the the tray heights?
How'd you get the Winter Edition Crop Circles?
How'd you get the Winter Edition Crop Circles?
Gotcha. I was worried that I missed the tiles on Cundco or something.How'd you get the Winter Edition Crop Circles?
Some guys on BGG are selling some mini expansions from the calendar on the marketplace. I waited until the one from Carcassonne appeared :)
Christmas is coming, and the goose is getting fat indeed! My birthday is also two weeks before Christmas. I do the Christmas/gift shopping for our family, especially after my wife's first birthday gift to me was soap... :o
I got a little silly with my game purchases this month, all of which are Christmas gifts for one person or another in my immediate family (and some for myself!). The list includes:
Twilight Struggle, The Grizzled, Between Two Cities, Machi Koro Deluxe, Ticket to Ride Map Collection #5 (which on the PA side of the map is the little town of 3000 people that I grew up in; very exciting!), 6 Nimmt, Codenames, Dixit: Memories, Sushi Go, Loopin' Chewie, Ghost Blaster, Animal Upon Animal, Zooloretto, Pie Face, and also several little expansions or promos for several different games from BGG and Cundco. Some of these games have arrived already. I expect the rest to arrive soon. I also expect (through very careful and strategically limited Christmas wishlists) to possibly get Tzolk'in and Istanbul before the season is over. I fully admit that I am more excited about all these games than I should be.
I also won Sheriff of Nottingham in a raffle at game night tonight. :blue-meeple:
Very excited about today's delivery!
Where did you Find The City?
Snow circles? Where I can Find them?
Great Stuff, ooh_jim! Unfortunately I can't find out which of these cities is the russian one. BTW: Could you take another/better photo of the phantom meeples? They look great!

Cundco sent to you the small winter expansion?
My first Carcassone expansion! (Well, other than The River that came with my original game.)
This is the picture I texted my wife to announce its arrival. :)
This was a very quick delivery by Amazon, (about one week).

What?! Where's mine? The tracking thing says it's still on the way, and estimates the 22nd December. I'm a bit confused as to how this can have happened since I ordered mine the day before you and am also in the UK! :o
I continue to wait for my Cundco order placed on Oct. 16th and yet to arrive! (Order is supposedly on its way.)That actually gives me some comfort. I ordered mine on the 23rd, I think, and it's been on its way since November 13rd or so.

I saw you were deciding between new and old art. Did you go with the old art then? I prefer old style much more, but it's so expensive, and no expansions reprinted in the old style. How did you choose?
Im wondering.. will a topic ever be full? lol..
I've got from HiG / CundCo this - a Merry Christmas card postcards and 1st + 2nd expansion for the CC IIWe 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've got from HiG / CundCo this - a Merry Christmas card postcards and 1st + 2nd expansion for the CC IIWe all knew you'd end up with those expansions someday.

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!

My winter edition crop circles arrived today, just in time for a game this afternoon...
Wow I love the postman sooo much!!
(http://images.tapatalk-cdn.com/15/12/22/ea71e964813c238424d509c000a20be0.jpg)
I am still interested in a copy when they arrive.Noted. Once I get the package, I'll figure out what domestic New Zealand prices should be based on what I paid. I won't charge you any more than what the converted price should be + shipping. The other three I'll probably try to sell on TradeMe for a tinsy profit.
@whaleyland - you should ask for a copy of Crop Circles, if they didn't specify ;) Glad to hear it's on target.Funny you say that, because I totally asked for the Winter-Edition Crop Circles. I did not, however, ask for Crop Circles I because I actually nabbed that back when the Müller Edition was still circulating. I think the six tiles cost me somewhere around €20.00, which is cheaper than what I paid for Kathars (€26.00). Granted, now I have a second Kathars from when Spielbox "found" a missing box of them, but I digress.
We received a lovely fan expansion from Decar a few days ago (I didn't want to post a screenshot too soon just in case others hadn't received theirs yet). This is a slightly tweaked version of The Astronomers fan expansion that he brought to the UK meet up in Rugby, presented in a lovely bag. The quality of the tile printing is really impressive - you'd think that it was professionally done! Thanks very much Decar. In fact we liked it so much that Lukey-Dukey and I had a game that day (and added a couple of other mini expansions into the mix).
Today the postman brought me Alhambra!
Thanks for your thoughts whaleyland. I'm beginning to get the feeling that I want to like Alhambra more than I will actually like it, but we'll see :)It is definitely a take it or leave it game. My partner loved it when she first played it, but I was more so-so. Over time, I think I began to like it much more than her...probably because I kept beating her. ^-^
This arrived as a Christmas present.
Wow I wasn't disappointed at all. Really liked the artwork, and the variation in the rules.
I need to play it some more for sure, but already this is up there with Hunter & Gatherers as my favorite variants.
Starting a new collection Paul? :D looks great!

I'm wondering about that small expansion. Is it worth it?
The Plague has received its fair share of criticism, so certainly there are quite a few people who don't like it. Although I must say that I'm not one of them: I think it's pretty cool. Reading the Plague thread (http://www.carcassonnecentral.com/community/index.php?topic=1527) in the Element of the Week series should give you a better idea of whether you think you'll like it.
Thanks Jungleboy, the theme itself speaks to me, so I just ordered it anyway. I like a bit of chaos >:D and I'm always positive when looking at mixed reviews.
Photos or it doesn't count :)
That GQ expansion. Is it still easy to find or will I have to pay 'top dollar'?
incredible paul¡¡¡¡¡
You need a giant mansion to store your big collection.
are all the same or different expannsiones??????
I broke into Paul's house at the weekend, and took this photo of his loft:
(http://www.dan.tehill.net/400.jpg)
How many copies of "Ark of the Covenant" does Paul own? He mentioned once, they are quite a lot.
EDIT: Ouppsy. Picture of Pauls photo had not been loaded before.
Downside is, these are the Scandinavian edition, but the rules are available in English online which is a comfort.

Perhaps we should splitt this with the score of the tiles from one expansion.
I like to know what all the other expansions could get points if playing only this expansion without base game or without another expansion...

Perhaps we could ask farin to allow us playing JCloisterZone without the base game (leaving only the starting tile). I assume that wouldn't be so difficult to develop.
Then we could announce further solo contests (http://www.carcassonnecentral.com/community/index.php?topic=1976.0) for the expansions.

Something learned again: happy bunny is a new phrase for me, it's "Glückspilz" in german (which literally translates into luck mushroom).
A bit ashamed but it was the last one I needed from the basic expansions. :) :red-meeple:

The three games are all by the same designer, and at least one of them is quite difficult to come by. The designer himself gives a discount if you buy two of them in combination, so I did that and added a third game just for fun :)

Last valentine my girlfriend asked here on this forum, right under my nose, to get help for creating her own meeples and tiles: http://www.carcassonnecentral.com/community/index.php?topic=2381.0
Funny 'cause I was considering to reply on that post without knowing it was her.
With special thanks to Decar who made this possible, I recieved personalized followers based on a picture of us.
It took a while before all the stickers were on the meeples, but I'm very glad with the outcome,
I think they look really cool too. BGE - board game extras? I looked briefly and couldn't find them. Interesting how they gave you an extra wheat and silk but not an extra barrel. It also would have been better if the silk was red to match the depiction on the tiles, but overall these are very cool and a definite upgrade over not only the tokens but also the other sets I've seen.http://www.boardgameextras.co.uk/index.php?cat=314&category=Realistic+Resource+Tokens#.VssOkPnhDIU

Whether the back of the box shows one is no indicator of whether it actually includes one. I think this box includes the old-style (grey) 50-point score track. Still a great find, and can't fault the price. Nice find! :(y)
Oh my goodness, this was hard to track down! About on par with finding a black teacher. I have contacted so many sellers (UK and international) on BoardGameGeek, Amazon, eBay, etc. (including the eBay listing that Dan sniped ;)).
In your secret forum do you talk about how useless this scoreboard actually is? >:D

While I was away though he did bring me Carcassonne: Die Burg...
Glad to here you've been getting packages! We always like seeing a photo though ;) If for no other reason we can check your decor out and sometime we see accidental variations that those pesky completionists need :(

I am unfamiliar with B-Sieged so I will have to check out the reviews.
So pleased to see this becoming the first post at Carcassonne Central to receive more than 1000 replies! I hadn’t intended it to become what it quickly turned into after I posted my image of Gold Rush and Carc 2.0 back in October 2014. But I’m so glad that it has done as it’s included so many fantastic photos of bits and pieces that have been delivered to members all over the world, and has provided so many of us with the opportunity to share, show off and get excited about our latest arrivals!
Great work guys; now let’s push for 2000! :) :(y)

Well the postman will be bringing me a Carcassonne: South Seas soon, I know this because I just shipped a 10kg box of stuff to myself from Ireland and that was in it.... Beats carrying around 2 airports and paying for the hold baggage :)
You should alter that image so no one knows how to break the copy protect!!! C:-) C:-) C:-) C:-) Jumble the tiles up!!!

Since all the cool kids are getting these at the moment I guess I probably should do too. If they're still available could you PM me about them Valheru? I'll be your best friend forever and call you Val-Hero for a month if you do. Those are my conditions.

Nothing overly special about it the printing. The box is the most interesting bit. I especially like the Blue Carcassonne Logo, I've never see this before.
The inside is just like a regular Carcassonne box, except it's much bigger. I've not looked at all the tiles, but they look regular. The Inns and Cathedrals CRCr tile is without bushes.
The rules are all distributed as separate sheets dated 2000, 2002 and 2003. Inns and Cathedrals is listed as 'The Expansion'. I'll need to check which edition of the base game rules are printed, but shows tall meeple.
Look, who's come by...
I've seen Walnut Grove, I was quite intrigued by it but couldn't find it cheap. Did you order form publisher?
Let us know how good it is :)
I ordered Das Fest and the German Castles from Cundco.de. They sent me "the River" with the castles :-[Whah-whaaaaah...
Look, who's come by...
I'd seen that somewhere :)

Sadly not all "echt" tiles - but a very well-made Porxada. Since it's for use "in game" and not completionism that's fine by me.
Left is new artwork, right old?
Mine just arrived as well, I won't bother adding pictures as lots of us will be getting them.Left is new artwork, right old?
I actually think it's the other way round! Left (with the houses) is the old art, right is the new art. I had to compare them to the other tiles in the games to be sure.
Left with the houses is Doris Matthäus's design. The Right with no houses Anne Pätzke's.
No Post Today :(
Came today!Mine too!

Someone shared this photo on twitter last week - I'm not sure where it originally came from. But in certain lighting conditions, they can look similar.
All this artwork banter does make me think I should start playing micropul (https://boardgamegeek.com/boardgame/10660/micropul)!
Nice. You got the promo card. They were already sold out online when I tried to get it. It is currently the only 7 Wonders-related promo I don't have.
There are some on BGG for $$$ - The shop I ordered from, gave a copy with every purchase of the game. It looks like the German Edition (there are apparently too), from Essen. It says 'Messe' not 'The Messe'. You could ask if you can order the card separately?That's what is out of stock. The company sells the expansion separately, just not currently. They'll get it back in, though. They have all the other expansion cards available.
Today the postman brought me the most anticipated gift of the year so far: the Falcon Expansion for Carcassonne: the Castle!!!
I am so excited to have it and so grateful to quevy for making it. The quality of all the components is absolutely superb! Thank you quevy!!!

Edit from Whaleyland: Sorry about that! I must have replied on my phone and I sometimes hit the "Modify" button instead. The results look identical!
I am going to measure later and maybe buy some dividers from basically wooden. I have no idea what they charge to ship to the States, but dividers are necessary.
I am going to measure later and maybe buy some dividers from basically wooden. I have no idea what they charge to ship to the States, but dividers are necessary.
I don't think that will work. Basically Wooden dividers are specifically made to fit the notches that are in the Basically Wooden trays, and your trays don't have notches. As an alternative, some people here have designed divider cards to be printed on cardboard (maybe JT Atomico?) that look quite good.
German Cathedrals arrived today at my house :)
I received the Kathedralen in Deutschland, Man Friday and Sheriff expansions today. Thank you Cundco.
I think I really am at the point now that there are no more rare bits that I want to find! I'm not sure if that is a good thing or a bad thing :green-meeple:
I've been looking for some replacement catapult tokens as cundco told me they had none. where did you find yours if you don't mind me asking?
Postman came yesterday. And, for once, I've remembered to take a photo!
The postman was kind enough to bring me my pieces to scale up for ten players. German Castles, more tower pieces, bridges, castle tokens, abbeys, catapult tokens and more meeples; white, orange, and the additional pieces for my purple and pink sets. Also, I didn't realise that they are including Abbots in the full meeple sets. Which means I have two orange and two white Abbots, but there we go.
He also brought me Cathedrals! And they are quite lovely. Beautiful artwork and an expansion for roads, it must be my birthday. Two sets, because a quiet (but apparently influential) part of my brain pointed out that I have twelve monasteries so should have twelve Cathedrals.
I also got a lovely meeple sticker, just for fun!
Postman came yesterday. And, for once, I've remembered to take a photo!
The postman was kind enough to bring me my pieces to scale up for ten players. German Castles, more tower pieces, bridges, castle tokens, abbeys, catapult tokens and more meeples; white, orange, and the additional pieces for my purple and pink sets. Also, I didn't realise that they are including Abbots in the full meeple sets. Which means I have two orange and two white Abbots, but there we go.

I would like to order extra castle tokens, bridges, and abbots in purple/orange/white/brown/natural (gray would be nice too but I don't think they make them). I couldn't figure out how to buy them on the cundco.de site though. How did you order them?
Nice haul. I've been looking for some replacement catapult tokens as cundco told me they had none. where did you find yours if you don't mind me asking?
Also, I love that cundco throw in those fun little freebies! Such a nice touch.
They do make a grey abbot, but I believe it comes in Carcassonne II: Inns and Cathedrals, so they probably won't give it to you spare.

Sorry have to nip this one in the bud. They are not producing geey abbots. There are no grey meeple in carcassonne 2.0. The 6th player colour is pink in inns and cathedrals. Please dont rush to order spare grey abbots. I tried it in my last order and got a written note saying i wouls have to paint it myself.
Merit to you for sharing your photo and fibrous carpet! :(y) :(y) Still no post for me :(
I finally received one of my packages. Woo hooHow (where) can you bought these two mini expansions separately (from big box)?

It's probably another good reason to buy Carcassonne II before they see the error of their ways and replace them with :gray-meeple: :gray-meeple: :gray-meeple: :gray-meeple: :gray-meeple:
+1 for this :) You caved in !!
Nice haul Decar. I'm excited for the cacao expansion, but holding off on a UK release for now!
In summary, I'm very happy to have received the game but very annoyed at the fees.
I am loving the postman today.
Where did you get the Splendor tiles, where they from Cundco too?
My order from Cundco has been sent, it seems. Hopefully, it worked what I ordered because I might have cheated a bit O0 (not as in 'not paying for something, just to be clear!)

Hopefully, it worked what I ordered because I might have cheated a bit O0 (not as in 'not paying for something, just to be clear!)When looking at the document for ordering spare tiles, I noticed that Corn Circles I wasn't crossed out while other rare mini-expansions were. I tried my luck and ordered it completely, considering it was a mistake on their behalf. But apparently it wasn't! I actually received them today and couldn't be more happy with them, especially considering the prices they go for on ebay and all... Anyone else of you ordered them this way?
Anyway, so for any of you still looking for Corn Circles I, you could try it directly via Cundco..

I really want to do this, but for some reason I can't get the spare parts form on cundco to work (it keeps telling me to fill out both fields even though I already have). I really don't want to miss out on Corn Circles 1 again.
Is there someone who could order this for me and I could pay them back (and maybe a bit extra)?

the spare parts section at CundCo shop is for spare parts and not for the whole sets or whole expansions.
Valheru - it was not you why I said this it was about this question:the spare parts section at CundCo shop is for spare parts and not for the whole sets or whole expansions.
I know, Kettlefish, that's why I said I 'cheated' a bit. If they didn't want to send me those tiles because it was a complete expansion, they should have said so in a mail or something. I know I made a bit of over-use of the current spare-tiles system but seriously, can you blame me for trying? We're talking about Corn Circles I here.. :) An expansion that is nearly untrackable and way overprized (although open for debate, I know..)

Apparently, Cundco changed their document. Corn Circles I isn't available anymore. I must have been VERY lucky..

wamboyil,
the CundCo shop has this information at their homepage:QuoteBrand new mini-expansion "Kathedralen in Deutschland", just available during the easter action (21.03.-03.04.), regularly again from October..

Let's just be clear here - your argument is because Cundco keep a static PDF that said some tiles were available you should be entitled to order an infinite number of tiles because the PDF said they were available?
Cundco are kind enough to offer a service to share spare tiles with their customers. Some of you noticed that some tiles were available and ordered them; subsequently, after everyone here and on Carc-F and that Czech site realized they were available I suspect Cundco's inbox looks like this:
No doubt Cundco will process the orders as they received them, and when the tiles are no longer available they will inform you and as kettlefish has said refund the money. But either way, 6-tiles for 1.20Euro doesn't seem too much to get angry about.

I definitely understand that- I did say "hopefully"
I have a feeling I've put you girls and guys and/or Cundco in a difficult situation. :o
I have a feeling I've put you girls and guys and/or Cundco in a difficult situation. :o
Yes, perhaps you did :)
I'll have no problem at all if they tell me that they won't send me the CCI tiles. In fact, I expect that. My order is apparently in progress, so perhaps I'll hear from them soon if they don't want to send me the tiles.
My problem is with my German Cathedrals order, which still hasn't been processed yet.
Got a message they partly refunded my order of Korn.
But it seems 1 is still on its way. So, I'm waiting.
My order has shipped as well.
I also noticed that Cundco has now made their English spare-tile ordering statement a lot more explicit:
Please use the link to "Liste" below. We do not deliver complete sets but only REPLACEMENT tiles!!! RED CROSSED tiles are NOT available.
Before it was only in German and google didn't provide the best translation for it.
I didn't get a message but on the site it says my order has been shipped. So who knows if I will get CCI or not?

Its not about the moment its placed. Its about the moment its payed I guess. But cundco can do it different ofcourse

Kinda sucks for me. Waited several years and then I bought the Tunnel for a high price and barely a month later, they issue a resale for it. Really bummed.I always say - don't buy at ebay for an expensive prise. Wait until the publisher (HiG/CundCo and spielbox) will sell again such mini-expansions for a human small prise...

It's certainly not predictable. I'm glad spielbox has decided to print some more things. But will a 70point score track be released, will Cult Seige and Creative be rereleased? Theres plenty of unavailable stuff and it seems unpredictable. Given the introduction of the new art work I think publishers will spend time supporting this, I suspect to be waiting a while for expansions in the old artwork if I've not got them already!Cult, Siege & Creativity was never released by Hans im Glück, only Rio Grande Games, which no longer has the license. So no, it won't ever be released again. Neither will the Games Quarterly Expansion or the unproduced Tunnels, Crop Circles & Plague expansion. Z-Man may be able to release its own version, but I'm not sure if that's allowed in their contract.
Had I waited for Crop Circles I, I still would be waiting today. With the new artwork their primary focus, I don't see the reprinting of long out-of-print expansions something that is going to happen unless they find spare boxes of old sets, as Spielbox seems to have done a few times.Kinda sucks for me.

While the spring cleaning in March in our warehouse we found some copies of issue 6/2009 (incl. the tunnel for Carcassonne) and 6/2010 (incl. the plague for Carcassonne).
This is too much aggravation for what is supposed to be a nice, friendly hobby.
Over three weeks now (March 21) since I placed my order for German Cathedrals, Dynasties, and some Corn Circle I tiles, and the order STILL says "not processed yet" at the cundco.de site. I'm just about done with cundco, hiG, and Carcassonne in general if they can't get their shit together. This is too much aggravation for what is supposed to be a nice, friendly hobby. Why advertise on your website that you have things available to order if it is going to be nearly impossible for you to actually fulfill an order?
when I clicked on the "pay with PayPal" option, it would not let me do that (something about their website not being able to accept PayPal from other countries?). I changed my payment method to "bank transfer", and the order seemed to go through, but I have no idea how I am supposed to make the payment to them. I never received an order confirmation e-mail from them, and my e-mail to them has not been answered yet, after 5 days.
If there are problems with the PayPal-form, you can send your payment alternatively to: service@cundco.de
Possibly my favourite mini-expansion; not because of the mechanics, but the spacial boundaries it broke, it feels very different to any other expansion and generally simple to implement. I always thought the Blue Rose should have been the start tile.
Packages shipped today, shipping cost over 60 Euro. It's really insane how high the shipping cost can be when you're not sending one or two packages. ;)

Tell me about it! I've regularly spent £15 - £20 on postage alone when sending stuff out to CarcC member for competition or tournament prizes/ mementos...
I ordered from gameguard but it's broken. I've sent them an email too.
Wamboyil, if you don't have any luck in the next few days, drop me a pm.
I got given a few copies of the Cathedrals by someone I met recently, and could send one on to you.

Ah, that's sad to see.
I was just going to order one of those!
Obviously part of me would prefer one of the solid wooden boxes but they look impossibly heavy and bulky and not to mention expensive.
Something else for you jungleboy!
(http://www.dan.tehill.net/new_package_for_nick.jpg)
This one was left in our bin store on bin day! Fortunately I'd put the bins out the night before, otherwise I wouldn't have put it past myself to accidentally have put this out for collection along with our recycling... :o
Look what just came in:
Shall I unpunch them or just leave them like this >:D
I heard they were highly radioactive and toxic and that you should send them to me for safe handling :black1-meeple:
Question about the rules. Did you order them or just got them with your order? But very happy for you SRBO!They came with them.
4 copies of CC1 arrived today! Miracle.
2 go directly to new owners to the Czech republic, one is for me and one is free. I will sell it here in CF
4 copies of CC1 arrived today!
...it is just a boardgame and six tiles
Let the bidding begin >:D ^-^
Please don't bid here :P
I got Crop Circles I (with rules) in the post from Cundco today!! Even as others started receiving it, I was still doubtful that I would get it.
Damn holidays on 07/04 :)
It seems strange that they apparently had so many of these in stock and yet didn't think to offer them for sale as an expansion in the normal way on the website.My thoughts exactly. With that in mind, as a gesture for them allowing my creative use of the spares service, I have sent them the cost difference between a set of spare tiles and a normal expansion to do with as they please.
You know there's someone somewhere, that used the replacement service to get a new set of rules :(y)
Haaaahhahahaahhaha :'( :'( :'( :'( I want a copy!!!
Sorry to spoil Christmas Dirk :(
Bit of a shame that these weren't available openly (on limited run) on the Cundco rather than via tile replacement. Fair play to those managed to bag one! (not so much to those that ordered lots though ;) )
Haaaahhahahaahhaha :'( :'( :'( :'( I want a copy!!!
I echo that sentiment!
Just to be clear- people ordered via the tile replacement, the whole of the Corn Circle I expansion and didn't just get individual tiles, but a whole unpunched sheet with rules? Is that correct?

SPIEL DOCH! is about the hobby itself and that seems much more interesting.
A nice little haul to greet me at work this morning!
not sure what to do with the new art Labyrinth though as i'm an old schooler.
What about the Spiel '15 tile?
jesus...my wife
What about the Spiel '15 tile?
i guess here starts my collection of the new art style....jesus...my wife's gonna kill me. I'm running out of hiding spaces on my gaming shelves...
Tiles fit nicely into books. Maybe you can hollow few books out too ;)That would be considered sacrilege in my family.

Where did you get the '15 Essen tile?
I know you've got a shifty postman though SRBO >:( >:(
Missed a delivery yesterday and made the stop to a local postal pick up point today for the items below.
Finally decided to give Jaipur a try, I think it will work with the Mrs.
Finally a mini expansion for Citrus that preceded the base game delivery, expected in a couple of days.
Received two deliveries today- a copy of Tunnels from Speilbox and CC1 from cundco (unpunched sheet, although no shrink wrap or rules) - very happy!I hope mine arrives too, congratz on these expansions.
I hope mine arrives too, congratz on these expansions.
My CC1 wasnt shrink wrapped too
Still nothing on The Tunnels. I have a feeling our postman placed it completely wrong into another mailbox so my copy is lost. Going to the post office later today but it'll probably turn out negative :-\

My son will be very happy.Ooo, King of the Beast edition. I wish there were a way for previous owners of Zooloretto to get the Lions. Like a replacement service option like CundCo. In fact, I would want enough to work with the expansions, too (although getting one with an [X] back for Boss would be impossible, I imagine).

Also I am giving you a merit for the print a play work you have done on BGG. It was cool seeing your guide linked to from the game creator's website.No problem. I saw a need and filled it. Oddly, I ended up sending my copy of Zooloretto home with my in-laws. My partner just couldn't win at the game and was growing tired of losing. Michael Schacht is awesome. I've emailed back and forth with him for a few years now and I'm on his holiday postcard mailing list. Apparently if you play against him on his website, he will reward you with a rare Zooloretto expansion tile. I haven't done it yet, but I plan to sometime soon.
Could somebody who received the Corn Circles I expansion compare the size of the Corn watermark to that of Corn Circles II's watermark? I have an original CCI expansion and the icons are quite a bit larger than the CCII icons (about twice the size). Is that still the case? If not, then these CCI tiles represent a reprint with some improvements. In the image you posted, JoeSesquipedalian, they look smaller.

In my copy of CC1 the watermarks were still larger than those in CC2.
12,5 expansions?I mean Essen-15 is quasi expansion.
Welcome to the club Clownfeet!
@Valheru - I wonder if Paul included a Dan Chard signed Tile in your shipment too!
The only time you should share a photo and you didnt :(
You're easily pleased if that's a fix!
The only time you could share a photo and you didnt :(That's because I'm currently around 80km from where the tiles are (verbal report only that they've landed)
I have joined the dark side.
Have made a few purchases recently, and also hosted Udo when he was here, and got some things from him.
The insert is from Broken Token before any one asks.

Toshihiko Ishibashi as per Cundco web shop.I am counting them as in my Carc 2.0 collection, do we know for sure which artist illustrated these tiles?Nothing on the instruction sheet?
No, just checked.
There are some on BGG for $$$ - The shop I ordered from, gave a copy with every purchase of the game. It looks like the German Edition (there are apparently too), from Essen. It says 'Messe' not 'The Messe'. You could ask if you can order the card separately?That's what is out of stock. The company sells the expansion separately, just not currently. They'll get it back in, though. They have all the other expansion cards available.
Umm, yeah, I still live.
Thanks Decar. I heard they were back, but I have to somehow justify spending €10 on one card since purchases must be a minimum of €10. Such a pain.
Unlikely since I'm in New Zealand and shipping out of here is really expensive, even just for an envelope. I'm thinking of ordering the five promos, the Messe Essen, and the Catan board and selling the entire set on the local ebay wannabe site. That would be retail €8.00 plus shipping. I am hoping that they re-release the higher-quality military counter, though, as I'd buy that in a heartbeat.Thanks Decar. I heard they were back, but I have to somehow justify spending €10 on one card since purchases must be a minimum of €10. Such a pain.
I ordered 2 sets of the 5 promos the other week to make it 10€. Totor66 just started a thread, he's after 2 of them - perhaps you can work together?

That's a sad sight to see franks. That mug looked pretty cool, are you getting a replacement?
Sorry i closed the other thread. I decided there was already too much hate in the world and it seemed to shift to impatient people receiving artwork they didn't like a few days later than somone else. There seemed to a few double posts appearing too.
I missed today's delivery and had to go pick it up.
...I think it was worth it! (game components not included)
soy sauce is great!!!
sushi go is in my backpack right now for my holiday to Iceland!
I hope they don't find out about each other - they might get upset
This Is the festival included, not the phantoms ;)No, there are eight sets (minus purple) of the Phantom included, as well as the Festival. ;)
And I thought I knew a lot ... shame on me :-[
I've got a very special delivery yesterday: Udo Schmitz (Carcassonne-on-Tour) brought me these latest expansions that I didn't have in my collection till the moment!
PS - and underneath it all is one of the playmats that jungleboy and I ordered! Thanks to him for spotting these; very cool!
How you finding Castellion - Have you beaten the big boss yet? :(y)
Extra coloured transparent meeples from @Michmedia arrived...(http://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20160511/f01cb67d4145797111a57db6139392dc.jpg)
Nice!!! So you took the plunge no matter about the colour mismatches?
That's a pretty big box for just one expansion Decar!
I'm not nearly so bothered by this as some people seem to be. But what's the alternative? Wait 15 years to see if we're happy with the P & D colour matching in Carc 3?
I mean look - the boxes are almost the same size...right?

My school expansion (yellow), halb is wild, windroses 1, and 12 blank tiles just came int the mail. Unfortunately, Cundco sent me halb is wild 2 and I ordered halb is wild 1. I don't feel like it would be nice to complain (I don't really care), but should I ask about it?
Good point. But the dragon is the same size as the fairy so that means nothing... :P
A little game to play: guess what Carcassonne goodies are in this enormous envelope:

Some great guesses - but inside that ridiculously large envelope was:I found three of them in Amsterdam, last week, but I didn't buy any.

Hi Paul.
I hope you enjoy the surprising mini-expansions.
The School - with a yellow meeple on the bag and a yellow teacher meeple.
Nice to see a Dan Chard signed tile made it too!

Paul,
your profile needs an update now.
Welcome to the World of Tile Printing :)
A nice haul! They say learning a language is easier when you're younger, so she'll probably find German have no trouble reading it :))
Only 6 sheets of blank tiles??? I think I must have ordered around 30 so far this year, and need more ...
Postman came!
(http://tehill.net/carcassonne/postman/20160401_183632-1024x576.jpg)

Wow!
Games are like busses...I literally posted the above and this arrived too:

...come on hat trick!!!
I agree. I love Flash Point, although my partner isn't a huge fan, especially with the expansions or even hot spots. I was planning to bring it to New Zealand with me, but we decided on Zooloretto (+expansions). That got sent back home in February, though, and was replaced with Brew Crafters and Scoville. Now I've got to send back TtR Asia, Netherlands, and Africa because they all weigh too much (why can't they just double-side print all the maps?!). Still, Flash Point is a fond memory that I hope to embrace again someday.Wow!

Congrats BigBoss! I want to hear the story behind that catch! ;)
I got a little something delivered this morning! A sticker for my truck!Hi gantry,
You don't count Winter Edition as a spin-off?
Say Clownfeet, how about some beautiful pictures to show that mega-collection? ;)
Wow clownfeet. How do you get the patience to put everything back so well organized, looking at your meeples...
Not sure what the MSRP is, or what I paid on the KS, but there's a ton of wood in the box so dont think 30€ is too bad!
They look interesting jungleboy!
patchwork and sushi go party
codenames.... maybe with pictures
Dungeon Strike: The Aftermath ?
Patchwork, Sushi Go, Dungeon Strike and Pandemic.
Dungeon Strike: The Aftermath ?
Hmm, nope. Never heard of this one actually.Patchwork, Sushi Go, Dungeon Strike and Pandemic.
Yes to the first two, as Decar guessed above. And yes to Pandemic. But that last one is not Dungeon Strike.
A hint on the game with the black bag with the dragon: It's a deckbuilder.
Are you certain it's not Dungeon Strike? At least two people here seem to think that it might be; perhaps you should check again? C:-)
Or maybe it's a trick question and it's not Dungeon Strike: The Aftermath because it's Dungeon Strike: Guardians of Fire. If so, very cunning! (I always struggle to tell those two apart! ;))

:)) Hahaha your post makes me laugh. Thanks.
I'm also confused because, search as I might, I can't find any evidence of Dungeon Strike (or those two expansions) listed. Is it an inside joke I'm missing or just an incredibly obscure game? :P
Was it on kickstarter recently, and made in New Zealand. Struggling to remember the name but something like Hoard.
Russian postman was very generous today!
Brilliant delivery!New promos already reserved, but I am still thinking what to do with previous ones :) Possibly I need to organize some quiz or giveaway :D
They are all already taken or reserved or for your personal collection, I reckon?
Russian postman was very generous today!
It's totally un-Carcassonne or even boardgame related. The postman brought me this large black box:We lost a good guy today... :))

I've been hunting this out-of-print game for a while, so I was super happy to see it in my mailbox today! I got it on the BGG market.

Received my signed scoretrack with everything else yesterday !
A bit disappointed that the tampons are actually made on top of the sticker, which means that after one single stroke with my finger, it fades away. The opposite would have been more logic.

No tampons in my mailbox yet :(
So Totor, can you verify if KJW actually sat down and signed all of these or if it is a stamp?
So can anyone verify I'd KJW actually sat down and signed all of these or if it is a stamp?KJW signed the tiles and the score board by himself. There is no stamp.
Today my wife loves the postman.
Interesting decar - what are your plans with all that?
lol stalcupojoy I love the fact that there is a card for the base game!
My postman brought me these. I got them for a decent price from a guy on boardgamegeek. They are part of the Deutscher Spielepreis 2016 Goodie Box, but I had no interest in the other 3 promos.
Nice, I might have to try to get hold of these myself. Seems like they're going or about €8 on BGG which isn't outrageous.
Today my wife loves the postman.
How are you enjoying it so far?
Following the review (http://www.carcassonnecentral.com/community/index.php?topic=3049.0) from dirk2112 and the seal of aproval of my rarely joining the table financially advisor, colloquially referred to as Wife, I just received a copy of Potion Explosion:

Ordered two items on November 29th. Still haven't arrived. Emailed customer service on January 4th. Nobody's gotten back to me. .:.sigh.:. Just another stellar ordering experience with Cundco.

Yeah. I'm slightly worried my mail may be getting pinched by neighbours since I also ordered a book that was supposed to arrive in 5 days and it's been 10 now. But New Zealand has a bunch of wonky holidays this time of year and the postal service seems incompetent for December and January, so I am hoping that's the problem. We've gotten some other mail. Ugh.Ordered two items on November 29th. Still haven't arrived. Emailed customer service on January 4th. Nobody's gotten back to me. .:.sigh.:. Just another stellar ordering experience with Cundco.
If it makes you feel any better, I ordered a Xmas gift for my wife on December 7th. It shipped from Hong Kong on December 9th and arrived yesterday. :o
Better late than never
Picked up my copy of BierGarten this morning from the Post Office.
It means a lot that you wanted to me my partner in crime on this one - It looks like you need another beer though!
You can open it at least - there's a nice box to keep them in until your sleeves arrive!
My copy of Biergarten arrived today!
Today is a fantastic day. MrNumbers, thank you ever so much!!!You are welcome! Glad they arrived fast and safe :D
2 days, insanely fast. Didn't expect them until next week.Today is a fantastic day. MrNumbers, thank you ever so much!!!You are welcome! Glad they arrived fast and safe :D

What about my copy???? :( You just moved in and are already receiving stuff faster than me. :'(
Jungleboy, Decar, and Dan,
Being added to the biergarten game is really cool! I am glad I missed that Kickstarter though as my wife would have agonized over how we looked.
I am also happy today with Latvian/Swedish postal services as I got a letter from MrNumbers in record time, containing two K-tiles, thank you so much!You are welcome! Enjoy! ;)
This came today. The seller was selling all of his minis for the same high price, but this gem was in there.Where did you find it? It's the only thing missing from my collection!
On step closer to completionnism. My brand new Games Quarterly Expansion came all the way from New Zealand to Belgium! Thanks to Andrew the Ambo... :(y)
Watch out Cathars, Besiegers, Crop Circles 1 and Tunnels...you're next! :o
Congrats on your purchase thodekey. I always love it when forum members help out fellow enthusiasts to get hold of certain hard to find expansions! :) :(y)
Good luck with the other 4...
Wow you have the little box that goes with it too. Nice!
A hard to find plus expansion for gipf. I've already got gipf, so let me know if you're interested. The box is stupid big.
I opened La Torre to see of the tile tower survived and it did. I never realized how crappy it is though.
Did you get them from Amazon? I bought my Tower and catapult there as well. Didnt have a weird sticker like that on it though.
I kinda like the Tower, but we rarely play it since my girlfriend doesnt like it
EDIT: I'm assuming you're taking about the tile dispenser that comes with The Tower as I can't think of anything else that wouldn't be likely to survive
I don't use the tile dispenser from the Tower anymore because I have the Dan-proof Basically Wooden one, but I thought the Tower one was perfectly serviceable and I used to use it a lot. It seems pretty sturdy for cardboard and it does its job, doesn't it? What am I missing?
I'm a very happy man today.
Well, you could call it a 'plan'. I saw someone on BGG that had the Russians for trade. He was looking for Besiegers. I had a spare one (the one you have now, Thodekey) and offered it. He was interested at first but wanted them unpunched and some extra (because the new Russians are really rare). I went to Ebay and bought an unpunched Besiegers while asking to hold on to those Russians. The besiegers arrived at home and offered it as well as the other part of our previous deal. Sent them over and he did the same thing. That's it.
Unfortunately, the postage punched some Besiegers-tiles but he said it wasn't a problem. Which I'm very grateful for because I did put a lot of effort in completing that deal and making sure they'd arrive safe. Mailmen can be heartless sometimes.. :)
These two tiles are my most valuable and I probably went a bit too far but they are the ones, along with the other Russians that attract me most of all the tiles there are (and ironically, they have a K on the back, haha).

You're right. He was easily the second dodgiest person to deliver the post to me in the last year.
From Germany to Northwestern Québec :black1-meeple:
The screw bridges are cool, but too expensive for me, the shipping is 5 time the price of it and there's some import fees.
Got the Winter Edition in today :D
We already had the 2 expansions for it, and my girlfriend decided that we needed the winter edition base game, because it is quote: 'Soooo cute we've got to get that one!!' :P
Wow! Good one! That must have cost you something hehe ;)
I only have 4 more copies and then I believe New Zealand is sold out.

Ooh! Love to know what you think of these when you get chance to play them!I love dice management games. My current favorites are Bora Bora and Marco Polo. I heard Troyes is one of the best in the genre, so I will soon try it.
Just got a nice delivery! I just came back from walking the dogs to find the postman at the door with a little package from austria. Now the question; do i open it and play with it, or keep it in the seal... ;D
keep it closed, the tiles are terrible!
keep it closed, the tiles are terrible!
Really? I thought they were pretty standard...
Wasn't it shortbread in the other tin?
Wasnt that the first winter edition?
And i didnt know that there are 2 tin box versions, whats the other one?
Ah, I found it, there's one for sale on BGG, I'm almost tempted to buy it just to see whats with the tiles :P
The other one is a slightly bigger, squarer box which includes the old-style 50-point score track as well as the base game + Traders & Builders. I think it's an HiG release but there's something funny about the thickness (or colour) of the tiles. I have it, but it's still in shrink-wrap so I don't want to open it! 8)
....Chooselife is perpetually to blame!For someone wanting me to back games so you can play then you do throw a lot of blame around.

They are incredibly nice, though I misread Jungleboy's original message and thought he'd ordered some "bowels in the 'medieval' theme"; I was quite confused for a few seconds... :@
Nice bowels! :(y) Be careful moving them...
So the big ones are for chips (or Crisps if you are from the UK) and the smaller ones are for Salsa, Guacamole, and French Onion dip right? :yellow-meeple:
I suppose the French just call it Onion Dip.

I took some photos for those interested:
(http://www.tehill.net/carcassonne/postman/20170304_101827.jpg)
The tile at the top is a 2015 base game tile. The tile at the bottom is from the tin we're discussing.
The tiles look slightly larger and squarer. I think the print is ever so slightly higher resolution, but that might be to do with the finish or texture of the tile.
Here are the two tiles side on. It clear hear the tiles are made of a foam-board(?) rather than cardboard; as a result the tiles are much lighter.
(http://www.tehill.net/carcassonne/postman/20170304_101845.jpg)
Sorry the photo is ever so slightly out of focus.
The Trade tokens are made of the same material.
So an old art version of the game was printed after the new art had already come out in 2014?
Jungleboy- did you take your package to the museum? Given the title it would be perfect!
These just came the other day.
Some old ... some new. Look forward to trying both!
Happy to see Troyes back in print along with its expansion.
One interesting, but probably not unusual, thing about the Inns & Cathedrals box is that it had "Die Erweiterung" written on the box which I guess means "The Expansion" which was what it was called when it was first released. I guessed maybe this meant it was quite old, but the tiles had watermarks on them so they can't have been especially old.
I believe the Dutch version of I&C is still called 'The Expansion'.
It is in the old artwork. 999 games have the new artwork as Kathedralen en herbergen, so adapted to the Inns and cathedrals name
I can now say that I have seen, held and sold the Cult, Siege and Creativity box + contents. I did not look inside so I have not seen the tiles yet though. Maybe one day!!
I'm looking forward to trying this DaFees, it's had some really mixed reviews (regarding take-that and OP). Love to know what you think!
A very pleasant and unexpected letter arrived whilst we were away for a long weekend. Newly opened and a picture of The Bountiful Harvest had to be shared. My thanks to Wolnic.

5-Minute Dungeon arrived today - totally unexpected!
Hope it's still there for you when you're back - it's definitely a lot of fun! Very glad to have backed it!
Oei!
BigBoss and i both emailed them for confirmation, and both got a reply saying it was the 2013 spielbox version. I believe they changed it on their website now, but obviously it was too late for your order...
Russian Railroads is possibly the best worker placement released in years (maybe the very best since Caylus). Enjoy it and then proceed to buy the great expansions
I see your copy and call with mine and raise with Jungleboy one. O0

And a :brown-meeple: that was supposed to be an entire set of brown pieces :(n) oops by Cundco. I dislike having them send a separate shipment over for one thing. I'm going to see if they'll just refund it, and I can order the brown piece set in my next order.

Will do. We are walking the Camino de Santiago starting late next month so I'm going to bring them along. First I have to decide which 8 to bring in the pod. I'll probably leave out Box (themeless) and maybe Woo. The ones I'm most looking forward to are Boo, Orc and Rum. And hopefully Nut and Dig will be fun for junglegirl.

Just maybe don't play too much with your new games, else you might miss out on the fantastic camino experience. ;)
Jungleboy,
Let me know what you think of the Pack O Game series. We have tried Rum, Sow, and Gym so far. Gym was the best of the 3.
Does Cundco still have die Belagerer? I thought they sold out a while back!
Do you have a link to the page?
Good find!
Near and Far, plus extended edition tokens for Above and BelowThese games have fascinated me since I first heard about them. True story-telling games. It just sounds amazing and unlike anything else on the market. I almost backed the last KS but funds are short and I could not justify it at the time (not that that stopped me from backing Brass, lol).
Above and Below is a solid game and easy to pick up but the stories are not combined into a greater narrative, more like one off adventures.Near and Far, plus extended edition tokens for Above and BelowThese games have fascinated me since I first heard about them.

Thank you so much Dan. Very unexpected and so much appreciated. The Dan meeple goes so well with the Zombie swarm ;)
Glad you got your packages guys. Enjoy!
I also got a very special package today. In fact, it was special for two reasons: firstly, because it contained some cool promo pieces for Cheapass games' "Unexploded Cows" that Squiffything sent to me. Thanks! :) And secondly, because it was my first post item sent to me at my new address! Fortunately my new address is only a few doors down the road and the people we're buying the house from know where we live so brought it round to me! A little over 2 weeks to go now though, and it will be ours! 8)
I am the proud owner of some Russian tiles! Thanks MrNumbers!You are welcome! Glad they arrived safe :(y)

Oh dear! I am sorry, for some reason I thought all your belongings hiding in a garage in Scottsdale. Where did that come from :(They are in Mesa, which is where my in-laws live. They have a lot more storage space than my own parents and we also went there briefly before moving to New Zealand. Hence, the Arizona storage option. Good memory, though. I'll give you that.
Just received my copy of the Japanese Buildings/Monasteries. They look pretty cool. Thanks to MrNumbers again for hosting the quiz. Amorpheus I hope you enjoy your Russian Promo Tiles.
txema - You might want to hide your postal address from the public domain of the forum. Although it's a good way of touting for more tiles :)

I've had the 2013 pair since they were sold on Hobby World.
I traded for the two 2016 tiles with a guy on Board Game Geek who (somehow!) had multiple copies. He wanted a German first edition of Der Fluss which I was able to track down and I also gave him a tile signed by Klaus-Jürgen Wrede.
now I'm really really happy! ;D ;D ;D
PhilippJC ;) :D

More than one month after dirk2112 I finally received Beeeees!
(please don't ask why I ended up with so many copies of this, it's a long story...)

Arn't we all here to hear long stories ;-)
I bought some more wooden figures at the Spiel 2017 in Essen.
The photos shows the new figures and some are from the years before.
The wooden pieces are from Spielmaterial.de and other companies who produce such nice figures.
Just received them today!The rules can be found online, there are official variants to them as well.
Thanks Willem - it looks a bit confusing but I'm sure we'll get it when we play later! :violet-meeple:
Really, most excited for the Stone Age mini expansion!
Caved and added Sagrada to the library! Looks like a good family weight game that has received good reviews from here and otherwise. These light games tends to get the most play time in our house.
Also look forward to Codenames Duet and bought the 7 Wonders anniversary pack, more for the completionist in me!

My shipment from Cundco arrived too!
Received this lovely mini expansion before the actual games arrived.
Look forward to the game arrival.
The limited edition version was only available at the Liepzig game fair and at Essen. Those unable to travel are only able to get the standard edition.My shipment from Cundco arrived too!
Looking at the home page for Cundco, I see it mentions a special limited version of Markets to Leipzig, with an extra Meeple, a numbered certificate and signature from KJW. Did the version you got have that with it? Looking at the product page, there is no mention of it being a limited version. (Hopefully not a sore subject; just trying to figure out my Cundco order and it may be worth having a Carc II expansion if it is a limited version). Apologies if this has been discussed ad nauseam somewhere else.
The limited edition version was only available at the Liepzig game fair and at Essen. Those unable to travel are only able to get the standard edition.
There were 600 copies of the limited edition, of which 300 were at each fair. I believe they both sold out within an hour or so of going on sale.The limited edition version was only available at the Liepzig game fair and at Essen. Those unable to travel are only able to get the standard edition.
The text on the Cundco homepage seems to contradict this statement.
There were 600 copies of the limited edition, of which 300 were at each fair. I believe they both sold out within an hour or so of going on sale.
this bit is stated in the News section of the Cundco website, where they look forward to the Spiel in Essen.
They will not have the limited edition for sale via the Cundco website. They where available at Leipzig and Essen and will not be on the webshop.
The retail version of the expansion is available though.
If anyone has got the watermark as vector file set me know btw, so I can make a separator for in my storage ;D
Couldn't bring myself to wait for the chance of it coming on Cundco. :green-meeple:

Cool! So I guess this just gets played as CFFF right?
Twilight fourth edition!
*Drool*
Hopefully a guy I know will buy it soon if not already and invite few of us for a game.
I've never been in that situation so can't comment with any direct experience, but have you contacted them about it to let them know?
Thanks Dan it's perfect and will sit pride of place next to my other signed tile :)
Nice one! I've still missed out on the Pandemic Legacy series so far as I doubt I can get the same group of people to play this 12+ times in a relatively reasonable time frame.
Enjoy!

Oh wow! Didn't that make it difficult to keep up with the story line?
Oh wow! Didn't that make it difficult to keep up with the story line?
Not at all. The story line is written on cards and you can always go back and re-read them. The hardest part is remembering all of the rules and actions. They give you stickers when there is a new rule. When there is a long break in between games, it is best to go back through the rule book again.
Also I highly recommend the FAQ below. They have each month blocked, so you will only see the text if you click on them. When playing March for example, it may be a good idea to read the blurb from January thru March.

My Christmas order came in yesterday. Looking forward to Ethnos for me and Azul for my wife. Also got Cities of Splendor, Disney Codenames, and Qwixx for the family. Kingdomino for my mom and Cash N Guns for my sisters family of teenagers. Should be good times! :blue-meeple:Some quality games in your list! Looks like you're going to be having a wonderful Christmas! Let us know what you think of Azul when you've had chance to play it. It looks like a great abstract tile laying game!
Only if the file is too big. I always have to resize my photos to get them attached
Had a trip to holland this weekend, for a quick Sinterklaas visit!
And today my order from Cundco arrived as well!
So a good score over the last few days!
Yep, managed to get one via the back-door channels
Had to meet a guy in a long rain coat in a dark corner of a parking garage in the rain, but managed to get it! And my Cundco order included the Spiel tile ;D

They also asked me what "Rão" meant in Portuguese. I didn't know, but apparently it means "the". I would have guessed "river". Shows what I know ::)
Also they shipped me a bonus card for Agricola. We don't have that game, but cool promo nonetheless. Why yes, I do believe the goat is fertilizing the soil...If you search a home for the goat, you can contact me! :D I love Agricola... and the goat too!

Sorry if this was my fault. I don't have the message saved anymore so I don't know if some weird autocorrect happened when I sent the address to you, but the address should be Rua Poiais de São Bento. Rua is street in Portuguese (i.e. related to the French 'Rue'). River is 'rio', as in Rio de Janeiro. And FWIW, 'the' in Portuguese is o/os/a/as depending on the gender and singular/plural aspect of the following noun. Meanwhile, 'Rão' is a completely made up word, but I like it!
If you search a home for the goat, you can contact me! :D I love Agricola... and the goat too!
You didn't typo, I did. It was the accent over the "a" in Sao. The postal service computers can't handle accents on words which is weird because Puerto Rican addresses have a bunch of them and they are a US territory.
Are the Isle of Skye tunnels (part of) the large expansion? Or a smaller one? I'm not really keeping up with Isle of Skye developments.
Got myself an early Christmas present :)
It was expected to arrive last week, but witht the speed of the Royal Mail we should've known it would be a week and a half for 1st class postage :P
Anyway, I'm happy :D
:P
I'm using it only my starting tiles and the two rivers, also the messenger and counter tiles. Too much tiles to sleeve all, in my case lol. :black1-meeple:
Card sleeves for Carcassonne tiles? :o
Nope nope nope, not going to do it, my OCD has limits.

I wonder if you have the record for most unique Carcassonne tiles. I would bet you do for fan created tiles. Somebody call Guinness! :))
3500 tiles using about 150 expansions (regular, mini, fan-made, homemade), probably???
:P
How do those work? Do they break the continuity between tiles? Where are them from?
Really interested!

I've had a couple of very nice postmen visiting in the past few days!
Ordered a second hand BB1, and it turned out to have the abbey&mayor full expansion and the shrines and the 5 'random' tiles from the count, King&consorts Expansion :) I think the seller didn't know what he all had.
And I got the Carcassonne Limited Edition in as well ;D
This one took me a while, but tracked it down!

Used some Ebay bucks to score this hard to find promo.Didn't even knew it existed. Added to the wishlist.

Asmodee and CMON do these game night promotions where they give out play mats and cool promos. If you can't make it to one, you have to hope that the promos make it to the BGG store. The mats never make it >:( Unfortunately for games like Splendor, the promos never were purchasable anywhere outside of Ebay. I am worried the same thing is going to happen with the Fulminating Serum.
The one game night we made it to, we received the Colt Express train station and cursed loot. Both of which were on BGG for a very short period, so there is hope.
I wish these publishers would just sell this stuff on their websites. It is like they don't want to take our $$$
This all sounds painfully familiar! ::)
Enjoy your loot :) :(y)
Got a visit from the postman with a little package from Portugal today!
Thanks again Jungleboy!!

Sorry, my mistake, i was sure i copied the sharable link but i was wrong... Anyway, i tried again, with no more success with a "share" url i won't display here. I'll loke for a workaround (outside of onedrive ;) )Yeah, I haven't found out how to do it for google drive... If I find a way I will share it with you ;)
Great Hauls!That's crazy.
Well done with the Jubilee edition, you see some people selling these for 80Euros!
and that didn't include postage :o :oI feel very dumb now. I had one. But didn't liked the quality of the tiles so I've made fan tiles of it.... :(
The Jubilee edition often pops up on Marktplaats.nl (a Dutch 2nd hand website) for around 10-25€.Indeed. That's very true Willem
Got mine on there for €15 i think. Same with the Wheel of Fortune.
Only downside is that everything is in dutch, and most people will prefer pick up, or will only send within the Netherlands. But if anyone needs help, me and im sure other dutch speakers on this forum will be happy to help ;)

No problem! There's a couple of them on there now for €15 each, and you can get it new from some dutch websites, that advertise on Marktplaats.nl ;DKeep in mind Willem with our national PostNL it's already 19 euro's without T&T... :-\ for shipping.
Really? I usually have shipping with T&T within the Netherlands for around 6-10€Yeah indeed. I do it mostly with UPS for 4,50 from shop to shop(2kg package). It's cheaper and you can decide when you get the package from there, (NL, UK, BE, Germany and all other europe countries...) But for Xander it's a little bit further ::)
Even shipping some games to the UK has been around that. It gets more expensive with more weight, but these dont weigh that much
Were your packages never shipped? Or are they perhaps stuck in customs?
Xanderx12, i just remembered i got a shipment from chile some months ago from a kickstarter. I took more than 3 months to reach France (mainly due to chilean post), and then the package was awfully damaged but fortunately content was intact.I hate chilean post >:(
Some long awaited pre-orders arrived, with a few little extras.

Great haul! I'm waiting for the Azul reprint.
Wow! You got the rarest expansion (The one you posted at the top) . Do you have the tunnels already?
I finally received my first fan made expansion. Thanks Leven!That's insane how long it took to arrive. I'm glad you finally received it. Have fun!
They weren't very popular in medieval Carcassonne but they're more than welcome in my Carcassonne collection. >:D
You caved in and picked up Star Realms :DYeah, as you know I play the app loads. However every time I look at buying it, it's out of stock! I ended up with Colony Wars few months ago instead. Having backed their Kickstarter, figured I had to buy all the physical editions to compliment it should they finally finish play testing all the stretch goals and actually manage to get it printed!
No one likes "my" king meeple ? :DI'm most impressed.
The Jungleman, or is it Postboy?, brought quite a loot:
Got a big envelop over today from the Ukraine!
I'd best keep my copy in the shrink-wrap :D
Received yesterday after getting the dispatch track alert in Feb 19th.
It really took his time to get there! :-[Wow, I hope that mine will arrive faster to you
Gracias @Rosco !

@Franks, Another amazing haul, I've held off from El Grande because it reportedly sucks at 2p, but probably from the same people that think Carcassonne and 7W suck at 2 players. I'm sure it'll be fun! I really really like Onirim and it's overall aesthetic design, so I hope you find it engaging too, especially when you add the expansions in the box.
BTW, the 2 impossible to find promos for Onirim (and the Sylvion Promo) are on the Zman webstore currently, you might want to grab them for a complete set :D
We know you love Marco too - looking forward to a review on that!
...
Yesterday I received in the mail:
Carcassonne Big Box 6 (2017)
Carcassonne Exp 4 The Tower
Splendor
Cities of Splendor
Stone Age
Stone Age Casinos & Russian Railroads Mini Expansion (combo pack)
As I don't have Russian Railroads and can't find an English copy for a reasonable price, I am fine selling/giving it away. I'm hoping it gets reprinted... especially if nobody is interested in the mini-expansion who already owns it.
I'm still waiting on 2 more packages:
Package 1 from Cundo:
Carcassonne: The Fruit Trees
Carcassonne: The Markets of Leipzig
Carcassonne: 13 Translucent Meeples of Different Colors
A bag for tiles (Big Box does not contain one)
Carcassonne: Blank Tile Sheets (12 Tiles) [x3]
Stone Age: The Mammoth Herd
Package 2 from Miniature Market:
Skyliners
Days of Steam
Days of Steam: Locomotives Expansion
Sheriff of Nottingham
Sheriff of Nottingham: Merry Men Expansion
Gentlemen Thieves
San Juan (2nd Edition)
I will post pictures when I get time
Great to hear from you again Mandy!
Shipwrights is deceptive...it looks like a 20minutes game but can take a really long time. I read somewhere a 5p game took 3hours!?!?! I'm considering making some alternate rules for some cards to speed up play for 2p. Raiders and Explorers are much nearer their estimated times! Looking forward to Architects too!
What's missing Rosco?
Good one Dan! I am still missing the ark and cardcassonne. I also don't have the mayflower but I had that and sold it because it is a terrible game. I also have the city (wooden edition) but have sold it to fund this purchase so I would like a cardboard box version.I like Mayflower! It is not a bad game:)

The absolute worst of all was the Dice Game and a surprise hit for me was CardCassonne.
Decar, I'm quite jealous of the fact you got the Time Traveler promo card for Unfair. Unfair is one of my favorite new games, so much so that I've been playtesting the upcoming expansion. I know there are ways for me to still get that promo I just haven't done so yet. :)Well don't delay DaFees, you know they won't last for ever!
I have to admit I'm surprised to learn they are willing to sell a set of 5 abbots in the standard colors. It sends a pretty clear message that I was foolish to buy a whole new game I didn't need just to get those pieces, and it makes me rethink my defense of the spare parts service.And i must admit i did'nt see your message on this subject. But an order this size relieve me of any culpability emoji code23]

Why mess with a UNESCO heritage site?
Glad you've managed to get them.
I see they're now taking pre orders for the giant version, but it's rather steep at $299
This "artrocity" is set to come down later in the year; September, 2018.
Good thinking. Also, Foggy-Balla, you "fixed" my portmanteau when you quoted me!
Received Hills and Sheep today 8)

Got the first sets of transparant meeples in today!
ordered 7 sets, as this was the maximum before the shipping went up to 10,95 :P
I was wondering if the normal meeples of the set would be the same as the teachers they sell, but they are slightly thinner and the edges are more rounded off :)
Cool! They look really nice. I haven't made up my mind if I will go for that as well... but this helps but worries my wallet >:D
I have received something very nice and very important from Hungary: World Cup trophy! :D 8)
I never thought it is so big! Thanks, Leven! ;)
Will try to save it at my home for the next year also ::)

btw, what was the prize?

Changed the hosting.
I was on a boardgame event 1 month ago. On the last day there was a drawing where one of the participants would recive a gift. I was the lucky one, and yesterday I recived a package with 4 games. Here is a pickture with what I got.
Decar, look forward to your thoughts on this one!
I think the differences are pretty trivial:
Some spot glossing
Black-chitboard pieces
Those Iron clays do look magnificent.
Stil, it's enough to turn me off. Hopefully no one wants the retail ans I'll find it for $0.75 in a bargin bin... hopefully :'(
Yeah! Totally worth it...got decent tracking too. Hope you dont have to wait too much longer!
Yes, seems like there are big delays...again!
I only ordered the one, but I did get the additional box and wallet. Not really necessary, but it was hard to tell when the PM was available. The plastic box is awesome and holds everything nicely.
i am very happy today. Just my tunnel expansion arrived, new, unused, wow :DNice catch, still searching for that one. One of the lasts I really want
I didn't know you were a stamp collector Dragonlord. I used to specifically collect George VI stamps when I was a child, alas, my collection is in total disarray now, perhaps I should look to sort them out. I always loved the colours they used for the definitives. Particularly the 2.5d blue , 3d violet and 4d grey.
I've about 11 000 stamps, and was more active between 75-84.
Wow Dragonlord! Impressive indeed!
Where did you get them card stands they look great and seem handy? (I know Memoir '44 has card stands as well, but I find them not very good...)
I'm still waiting for my pledge for Star Realms: Frontiers to arrive. They mentioned in their last update that the big orders will ship out first, though it's not clear to me what's considered a big order... ;)
Looks like the Postlady left us some nice things today:

Had to get Kingdomino: Age of Giants—It's had some great reviews and don't see it being so cheap at Essen.
Rise of Fenris—Again it's had some good reviews.
Kitchen Rush—Dávid Turczi nailed Anachrony, so I thought I'd give his real-time co-op kitchen mayhem a wild punt. I watched a video and it looked surprisingly good. Mrs_Decar loves real-time stuff like Escape and 5-minute dungeon so I'm hoping this won't disappoint.
Then today, on the Kickstarter launch day of Tiny Epic Mechs I received Tiny Epic Zombies!!! I'm really looking forward to play this one with the 5 different play modes.

I'm still waiting for mine to arrive, which is made all the more difficult by everyone on Facebook posting about their copies arriving! The timing is perfect though. One person wrote: "So my copy of Tiny Epic Zombies arrived on the exact same day as the new KickStarter for Tiny Epic Mechs went live. Coincidence? I think not!"
Took me few minutes to open a box, but here it is.

Got me a special delivery of Carcassonne Swan Sleeves!
I've seen them a couple of times here on the forum, so I decided to contact Andrew from Board Game Extras, and he special ordered them for me :)
Now I'll pack up some special tiles to ensure those will be safe ;D

*ugh* I normally love the postman. In fact I got my copies of the new German Monasteries and Barber Surgeons as well as a set of white meeples. Unfortunately that wasn't everything I ordered and I am missing some of what I ordered. I am missing a set of orange meeples and more importantly my Spiel 18' promo tile. Now I admit when I placed the order I tried to order a ringmaster in gray, orange, and white. Of course Cundco told me they didn't have ringmasters in alternate colors (as I kind of expected) and thus offered me a voucher for the small price I paid for them. That's fine. That little hiccup shouldn't have impacted the rest of my order though.That is sad to hear, hope they still have one for you
I've already emailed Cundco and so we'll see what happens next.
Not heard of any of them Dragonlord, anklebiters looks fun though! Have you managed to play them with friends and family?
Wow Dragonlord, you've got quite the range of games! According to BGG I've now reached 178 games (excluding expansions and spinoffs). I'll be happier when that goes back down to around 100. So you've still got some way to go ;D
Hopefully, Dan is following your exploits on the CarcC Facebook thing, I'm not on there—but had a quick look at your prototypes.
You've been working on this for quite some time, I hope you're making progress. That board looks like quite the adventure and anything with dragons gets my vote (due to my homelands).
Another arrival today thanks to Kickstarter:

It's light and frantic. I know a few folks got this: hope it lives up to expectations :D :(y)
long time no postman.
I was just heading to my flgs to pick up The Grizzled: Armistice Edition, as was less than half price thanks to an online store sale! When the postie arrived with a KS pledge:

Nice delivery today, Hanamikoji and Shadows in Kyoto, Gorus Maximus and a one year late one, Out of the Wood. :black1-meeple:
Nice delivery today, Hanamikoji and Shadows in Kyoto, Gorus Maximus and a one year late one, Out of the Wood. :black1-meeple:
I’ve gotten to know the designer for Gorus Maximus (Conor McGoey) over the last few years at Gen Con. Great guy with a ton of passion and desire to make his products of the highest possible quality. I’m sure you can see that Dragonlord in just the box thickness alone, which undoubtedly cost him more for shipping.
For those who haven’t, definitely check out his first game, Summit. Good mix of tile-laying and player interaction, which a few people on this forum may be into ;).
You're right, he love his games but also his family. And I'm trying to help him with my facebook gaming page.

It's nice to mix with princess and the dragon expansion. :)
Received one of the last expansions I still needed last night :D
So happy ^-^
You see them often without the tiles, and just the software.I won an auction for exactly the same item just few days ago! It should arrive in few days, I can't wait to get my hands on it!!!
With the tiles having something unique on them, this was something I still wanted to add to my collection.
So I was very happy to find this one, and for a very good price :)

Hi Willem - can you please clarify what is unusual about the tiles, I can't tell from your picture.
Thanks
A bit unexpected, but today the postman decided to visit me once more!Nice!!! I recived my map yesterday!! But I will play with the old version in the map. I don't like new version. XD
(https://i.ibb.co/F6kZ3kp/DSC-0174.jpg) (https://ibb.co/G7fYpfm)
The map is printed on quite strong material, and is looking nice!
It has a QR code at the bottom, that states to lead to both German and English rules, although currently only German are actually available emoji code14]
But the English version has been announced, so then that will be fixed :)
I got these gorgeous hand-made tile holders by oldbonz! They are made out of 600+ year-old wood :oWoW!! Perfect for 3 tiles variation :D
I'm going to surprise everyone in my next game ;D
Got my Cundco delivery in today!Is one pack of chips enough to play with a map? I just bought one emoji code45]
(https://i.ibb.co/BnRbpbx/DSC-0002.jpg) (https://ibb.co/z6wpMpY)

Got 1 of each of the new maps, and of course some chips for them. And picked up a few copies of the Tollkeepers expansion as well.
Spiel '19 was in there, so i'm very happy to still call my Carcassonne collection complete :D

Nice! I remember how important having the wooden ark was to me when I got my copy. Seems a bit silly in hindsight!
Wow!!! The ark is huge :oBetter with Indiana Jones version emoji code16]
I have never seen the arks in comparison
I've got the version without the wooden ark, and am a bit jealous now ;)
Is Meeplesource not an option for you?
You can see the defective orange meeple I got from Meeplesource here at the bottom. I also received cracked meeples and cubes. So you have to order extra ones to cope with these issues.Nice colours!! HiG should do more colours stuff emoji code16] The form is important too emoji code2]

Very cool! What expansion is this from?
I just got my copy of the Carcassonne Big Box from Cundco yesterday. It took well over a month to come in, I guess because of the Chinese Coronavirus and everything. Anyway, now I have all the major and minor expansions for Carcassonne 2.0! The only things I am missing are the Spiel promo tiles, which I don't really care about.
I have won a price from HiG and I'm still waiting my order of the mega set of coaster with big meeples since april 17th... no delivery to Canada because of the Corona... :black1-meeple:
I know... After my last post, I could almost hear some people say
"But Willem, there is 1 more version of the WoF that you don't have yet!" And they would be right! Until now...
I got this one finally in today:
(https://i.ibb.co/mcw2h0w/IMG-20200911-122903.jpg) (https://ibb.co/mcw2h0w)
This one is even harder to find than the English version, but I got one!!
Many, many, many thanks to Murphy013 for your help with this one!
It also makes my Russian C1 collection complete:

very happy to have found it used in France, because not very common (perfect almost new condition)
Here's mine!

Quite excited by Paleo, got to demo it over the Spiel weekend on tabletopia.
My 2020 Spiele gets its first play together with base, start tile and Inns & Cathedrals.The Spiel tile belongs in a bigger city. That city could only fit about 1,000 attendees by the looks of it ;)

I'm glad to here you received your order without any issues. :(y) :(y)Don’t make me cry. But honestly, most countries are cheaper to ship from than Germany, so it would probably be an improvement.
What if HiG decides to continue this Map generation spree and gives a chance to all the countries with local publishers of the game? Too many to count? >:D

Received earlier than expected my package from Cundco. I was surprised that the maps weren't in a tub this time, but considering I had already decided to store the maps flat, this wasn't a major issue. I also had included in the parcel two copies of Halflings (I accidentally ordered a second but it's okay--I have a work copy of the Big Box and my coworkers will probably like this expansion more than any of the ones actually included in the box), a copy of German Cathedrals, and of course Spiel '20. I haven't missed one yet but may end up going bankrupt buying them going forward. I selfishly hope that after 2021's Spiel tile, that they don't release them anymore. More importantly, I don't want them to release any more maps. Six (or seven?) is more than enough and I feel the gimmick has kind of overstayed its welcome with the massive double-sized US map. Plus, shipping for them is extremely cost-prohibitive. I don't mind them re-releasing old expansions in new art or entirely new expansions, but I do like them to be reasonable in size and relevance. I feel that both the Spiel tiles, which are a blatant marketing tool, and the Maps, which are also primarily marketing and also a gimmick copied from Catan and other game companies, have run their course.
Just imagine putting all the maps together to make an enormous Mega World Map Carcassonne Game ;D
Six (or seven?) is more than enough and I feel the gimmick has kind of overstayed its welcome.I know we all love Carcassonne but it did make me laugh to see the maps singled out for this criticism! :)
I'm glad to [hear] you received your order without any issues.Are issues a common thing generally?

Two months ago I shipped a registered letter to the USA. It took 4 days from my post office in Switzerland to arrive in the USA, and then one month from arrival in the USA to its final destination... Be patient, your order is probably already in America ;)
You are probably right, but I will say that the last time I ordered Cundco sent me a "Your order has been shipped by Deutsche Post". This time I never got that message, but didn't think much of it until now. I emailed them, I suppose it doesn't hurt to ask.I see, I would have asked too if I didn't get that email.
Has anyone from North or South America received their Cundco order with the 2020 tile yet?No, me either. I did receive the Cundco confirmation email, though.
I doubt Cundco know I'm Dutch as I live in the UK, but that would be just a silly coincidence ;)
punching out all those tiles... >:D
I got my first cundco order today. I'm so happy right now! All the mini expansions at the time, two new full-set meeple colors, the last four major expansios and I even got a bag, a mask and a magazine as gifts!BEST fast collector ever hahaha
I'm still waiting for my parcel from the Advent sale :'(
I'm in UK, but usually CundCo parcels arrive within a week.
When did you order MMike? Mine arrived a little over a week from order, but it must have been last week it arrived.I placed my order on the 19th November, it was posted on the 23rd
Most of my previous orders have been fulfilled within a week. I suppose it's to do with all the Christmas post.Same, regarding previous orders. I guess Black Friday post doesn't help either
It's good to follow tradition, today we have orthodox christmass and orthodox santa claus knows what people want to find under xmas tree

Yes, but we had to solve issue, that one box has now not enought space for all tiles, meeplesed, tokens etc. So going back to two box - basic game for tiles and scoring table and box from expansion 1 for other stuff and rules (I know basic game, tower and halflings 2020 are fold).
Thinking about wooden box to made. But shops are closed due to quarantine ;-(
9 Wooden Wine Barrel Tokens
6 Wooden Wheat Tokens (well should be 6, I appear to have misplaced one already ::) )
5 Wooden Cloth Tokens (yeah, they are not red and they are shaped like t-shirts, was most suitable thing I could see on BGE and they will certainly do for now. On the plus side they are purple! :) )

I anxiously wait for the new winter edition and the 20th anniversary to become available to those of us in the US.
My mail lady came through today!Well. Usually they suppose to na same. But for example Czech/Slovak rules (Mindok publisher) of Princess and Dragon says:
Does anyone know if the rules for the Polish version of The Castle (Zamek) are the same as the original? I am assuming they are, but have not taken the time to look into it yet.

Got this in my mailbox today. That's tiny compared to KBellon's arrival, but I'm still happy :yellow-meeple:
My kids aren't old enough yet (one is 18 months old, and the second should arrive in one week or two), so I'm keeping this game wrapped for 2 or 3 years ;)
@KBellon, I see you got a La Porxada tile. How do you know it is a real one, since it's always been a stickered tile? I bought one a few years ago and always wondered it it was an original one or not. And I'm not even playing it, since I could print a better quality tile myself ???
I bought one a few years ago and always wondered it it was an original one or not.Could you post a picture? It should be relatively easy to see if it is not original (which is likely).
Same problem with the CarcassonneCentral world cup tile, since it's a stickered tile, it's difficult to know if a tile is an original one or not :
This confirms what I thought, both my CC world cup and La Porxada tiles are copies. I bought them on Ebay on my early Carcassonne collectig years for about 8 Euros each :o
Anyway, they're still nice tiles to have in play :yellow-meeple:
Wow, nice addition to your collection!

How's the finnish ark? Cardboard?
Could you please PM me closeup pictures of the wooden ark and dimensions? Maybe I could buy the finnish version and craft a wooden ark :yellow-meeple:
Any idea if the website with the Finnish version of aotc ships to the uk?
Can't work out how to attach a screenshot, so old school:
AoC 20.08 euros (less than Finnish list price so presumably add VAT on top)
Priority Parcel (Zone 3) shipping 36.00 euros
I haven't found an option to change shipping.
Hope that helps.

Where did you get it? I found one on eBay (https://www.ebay.com/itm/Wood-construction-set-la-cite-de-Carcassonne-France-village-electoral-management-body-complete-/353433003698?mkcid=16&mkevt=1&_trksid=p2349624.m46890.l49286&mkrid=709-127639-2357-0), but it is 100Euro with shipping to US.
No, the rules for these are quite simple.
It translates to "Willem wins"
The expansions just give more points to Willem, but the base game rules still apply
I really like the tin boxes. And i even love them more when the postman brings one.
That's the box with the foam tiles, white thin cloth bag and misprinted tokens. The packaging was great, but the contents not so much lol
It's a nice one to add to your collection though
Yep, the trade tokens have a misprint on the back. If you see the sheets, there are 3 sheets with Wheat/Cloth/Barrel/Wheat/Barrel.
The 4 sheet has Cloth/Cloth/Barrel/Barrel/Barrel, but on the backside of the tokens it still follows the W/C/B/W/B icons. Not a big thing, but still ;D

Received my first Carc 2.0 package from Cundco after being a Carc 1.0 holdout. Got the anniversary edition so I’ll just keep these expansions with it. Tried ordering the scoring flags but unfortunately they are now out of stock for the bundle of colors (along with the Spiel 21 tile).
(https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20211208/55e5aff53f1ba290d7d78192553a19ec.jpg)
Buy Carcassonne: Safari, of course!
I'll be honest, I'm not sure why I opened the boxes I received today so quickly.... I don't have anything else to open on Christmas day :'(You can do unboxing of those games.
The cathars!! One of my favourites mini expansions!! Enjoy it. emoji code18]
Also, putting aside few rarities/oddities (Darmstadt, Russian promos, La Porxada) and notoriously rare variants (Crop circles 1, Halflings 2) I now miss only Plague.What was it that made crop circles 1 and halflings 2 so rare? Sounds like they came out the same way as many other expansions?
But keep wondering is siege enough? I keep feeling like i need beseiegers as it feels like 4 tiles isnt enough, but in others experience in actually playing, is 4 a comfortable amount to see in a game or are you left feeling like there should be more?Here are a couple of potentially helpful links.
My final thought is that this expansion adds little to the game except a historical concept (which is nice) and another minor attack aspect. For a game that is mostly about feature-building and expanding, though, attack aspects are not entirely necessary, especially when they are dealing with trifling amounts of points. In the end, I'd say pass on this expansion unless you want it for its collectible value (like me) or are a completist (also me).
Trying to convince myself to let go of the idea of needing beseigers...Good luck with that. >:D
Wait, that artwork for Carcassonne: the City looks awfully familiar...(https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20220111/467a2707a8706ea061974f0c3ccc43d9.jpg)
It turns out that after looking it up, the Carcassone spin-off came well before the Dominion expansion with this card, but I've been a Dominion player far longer than I've been interested in Carcassonne, so that was the first thing I thought of.
Edit: it also turns out that I have no idea how to actually add an image, so you can't actually see what I'm talking about, but trust me that RGG reused that artwork on a Dominion card
Wish I was loving the postman. My Cundco order has been sitting awaiting departure in Germany since the 2nd of December.Yeah, I got notified on 10 December that it was "awaiting information" (which, for the record, WAS included on the original order, as my receipt attests). Despite two replies, I haven't heard anything. I know they've been closed for the past three weeks, but I really hope they get on it soon and that my Spiel '21 tile is in the parcel.
I wish there were “curious” ???, “want to give away” :P and “gave away” categories, to give a more complete picture.
The Carcassonne Museum is still taking in new additions prior to opening, and the Postman seems to know this.
Got 3 packages in 1 go this morning!

On the left is an Australian base game by Ventura games. They did a similar thing to PixelPark in New Zealand, by taking an RGG box and slapping their own logo on it somewhere. Although this one only has the 1 Ventura logo, and all around the box are RGG logos :P
And a 3rd edition RGG one; i thought i only had the 4th one (which has the text of the Free River brilliantly photoshopped on it), so got this one :)
and underneath is a RGG Big Box 1 :D It differs ever so slightly from the HiG BB1, as the RGG one came with the River, and HiG BB1 didn't
i do keep an inventory file with everything i have; started doing that fairly recently. It's an organised file (or at least i like to think so), but haven't got it anywhere online. As i'm still tweaking it, it keeps changing and i mainly use if for myself to check if i have or haven't got a spare, or certain edition.Please double check your file, in order to find a spare copy of the Essen 2015 tile ;D ;D ;D
I usually use the Collections&Expansions page on the WICA in combination with the file, to see if i have or haven't got something yet

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

...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!
So, I haven't figured out pictures yet, but I got 5 minis in the mail earlier today - German Castles, German Cathedrals, German Monasteries, the Tollkeepers, and the Phantom. Also took a trip out to my local game store and was able to pick up expansions 4 and 6 this evening! Myhoardingcollecting has begun!
Great find Dan, i really liked playing that one
And i guess your postman likes to send you on a treasure hunt, and as you are so good at it, he decided to make it a bit more difficult ;)
Looks nice!!! :)
I finally received the Überraschungspaket from Asmodee!!! :DNice! The German Wind Roses!
Received Carcassonne: Safari yesterday. I had the Spiel DOCH! tiles for it but never actually bought the game. My partner saw it on Monday in an ad, asked why we didn’t have it, and I promptly found it on clearance at a place where we had a gift card from Christmas. It arrived two days later! Haven’t played it yet but it’s now fully punched and I’ve read the rules. Triangular scoring? Weird but I’m intrigued.I am happy to "hear" the next Babarian Report. C:-)
Meanwhile, my CundCo Advent order was finally shipped after I contacted Hans im Glück on Facebook. Fingers crossed that it arrives before 2023. :D
Where did you get the trade goods, including cloth tokens?
Awesome, I can't quite tell from the photo, what's the quality of the print like, they had some concerns over the image resolution.
Of course! Everybody knows the Teachers are better Phantoms than Phantoms, even HiG agrees with us ;DIs that a thing is it? Lol. I was just trying to complete my phantom set and thought it would be the best option. Didn't realise it was a common opinion! ;D
I've been trying to avoid getting hold of a copy of Azul by all means?
Is this a bad thing to do? :-\

I'm glad you enjoyed it. When does the Draftosaurus Museum open? 8)
Oh, and I forgot to thank Sinscerly for pointing me to a site that sold this game with English rules!
Are you trying to push me down the road of Azul the same as Decar did with Fluxx? ???You can try it at BGA >:D let me know if you want to try and win from me O0 O:-)
I know all resistance in futile... :o
The other tin, with T&B is slightly biggerThanks!

Be ready for C3! >:DNot yet - Scott needs to unwrap the CC2 tiles first, and then he has time search for CC3.
2. A large box from Germany containing the 2020 Winter Edition and a nice postcard from @Challa007 who forwarded it to me from the original seller.

The 100-point C2 score track arrived today, slightly cropped but usable.

I briefly considered that, but there are a lot of tiles, and I like to draw from a bag anyway.

Intrigued by this nugget.1) Not sure, but Falcon was released by the designer so it is legal to print.... as made by Print&Play games in the US ...Can I ask about your experience with them, please?
1) What are their rules regarding printing fan expansions and official print and play items?
2) Is their 1.75" square token stock (44.5mm if my math is correct) close enough to Carc tile size, or did you need to order a custom size?
This could be fun!
That is absolutely right, not only proven by a double postman visit today!I had this version of the expansion and isn’t good enough… the edition needs more quality but better have it than not :)
First, my local postman stopped by to bring this:
(https://dub01pap001files.storage.live.com/y4m4jVl4htEIIl8njbCMC-MV4oUeGr8Nl7Bzt-Xgc9tElJgMml2CmtoTg9iraRJqI6qAwTtRu5quNr3x-M1THNH-hu8xXMwESPW931NHqHTxh9d5_5f6lCldsKMWO71UBdNs-xB9ROp1Qp2y-MgSgtWVEPkvhYPy9JlwizXn9gTxPwoTLoigyMomG7WveM6UpTX?width=660&height=371&cropmode=none)
The Falcon expansion for The Castle, as made by Print&Play games in the US. I've given the gate pieces a try, which seem to fit ok, some tighter than others, but I'm sure it will work fine in a game. Will need to play this one soon!
And then not long after, another postman dropped this box at my doorstep:
(https://dub01pap001files.storage.live.com/y4m036Mmr8-hwl7SNVzM1AL63h2g8fiHhl74MmNHMlz_iCz--JaKOmvLuz45xXcDx_Fhw4CCbCCW6XPzBaiPMnIZQfEKfcyxRMlBB6kzyqE22crxzw91hBrAu37x-CRHet8O8F1L6_v61ggVGgN9nca2x45ZzAoPZakC3GUx8tCuTBBgmQejZwfQS9KCQ1z8486?width=371&height=660&cropmode=none)
I've known of this one for a while, but never saw it for sale anywhere. So I messaged a random person on BGG who had it, asking them if they would be open to 'donate' it to the museum, and they agreed! Very quick delivery from Finland, and here it is!
Speaking of legal print… is it possible to print a Spiel 2015 Tile? Where, in case (just for personal use, of course).
Does anyone else get really bent up orders from Cundco? Two out of my four orders have been so bent up that the tiles are all crooked and out of shape. Got the Count Tableau and that has a big crease down the middle of it. Getting a bit disappointing as I get so excited about these expansions coming and then they have to spend a week between a clamp trying to get them back into shape. Just wondering if many others have this same issue? My love of the postman has lessened a little of late! Lol.I think it's probably your local mail service that is bending them. I have made a lot of orders from Cundco and have never had a single problem with the products being damaged.
What if you feel like implementing new expansions in JCZ now? >:DChallenge accepted!

Why do you need d10 dice? Aside from the special die for the fliers min-expansion, I wasn't aware this game involved any dice at all.I use them on the scoring track to keep track of how many times a player has gone past zero. I start them on the zero face and increment each time I do a lap. Much more convenient than 50/100 tiles or meeple flags.
I decided to add abbots to my C1 set, and they arrived today.Hi Scott. What's your source for these? Was planning to do the same thing but Cundco website says they won't sell complete sets.

a copy of The Gifts and one of The Signposts.Congratulations. I’m eager to he hear what you think of them, especially Signposts, which I don’t have since I play C1 only. But that looks great!
Here's what was waiting for me on my office desk this morning: two bags of different sizes, the Spiel Doch! 2/2018 promo tiles, a copy of The Gifts and one of The Signposts. I'm one (actually two) delivery away from completing my C2 collection!

This Dice Game scoring pad is really awesome! If you decide to share the template, I will definitely try to get one for me.
The tower came with one foldable piece to build the bodyThis. But the left part is longer than the right part so it's impossible to fold it correctly.
I have no idea how the maps work but they look perfect for some solo games... the complete USA map is particulary endearing! Good catch, have a good time! Will you glue them on a harder cardboard?Nope, but I will be storing them flat in an art portfolio.

However, you will see that the C2 rules ignore phantoms altogetherWhat do you mean by this? You mean that phantoms don't "exist" in C2?
- Two sets of point flags (left one is supposed to be green... but not really ??? :))
you need to remove the protection film - it's there! believe me!! :)Oh. My... I feel SO STUPID now ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D

I had this game waiting for me when i got home!What is this version of the game? And what's the Mobius collection?

Now i'm just 2 boxes away from completing my Mobius Carcassonne collection :D
There are a few sellers of those grids on Etsy. If you’re extremely OCD about having tiles perfectly aligned, I guess this is the solution. The challenge is that they don’t store compactly, so it’s yet another thing on the shelf.

And a set of 10 packed sugar cubes, showing the image of the city of Carcassonne!
Scott, those empty tiles make me so happy and sad at the same time... I have a lot of ideas for new tiles/custom expansions but I am not able to draw on them! Can I ask you what do you use to draw on them?
I've got the Japanese C2 base game that came with them, but it's still sealed, so no idea in terms of how they're presented in there. If the Dutch version of base game+monastaries is anything to go by, they are like this (not separately sealed) and a pamphlet with the rules.There are English rules posted on CarcF: https://www.carcassonne-forum.de/viewtopic.php?t=3254. Is it allowable for me to re-post here? That file matches my physical rules copy which I got by ordering from cundco.de Spare Parts > Game Instructions, which should also still be an option for folks.
I did however find the rules i got with my other set of Japanese Buildings. They say it's from Cundco, so i'm assuming that's where i got them from.
I can scan it if you like and share, but the rules are the same as the other monastery expansions. Funny detail is thought that this is from just before C2, and the art was done by a Japanese artist i believe.

No, and neither does most of the English-speaking world. I should have given a link to the wiki, but I'm also quite fond of the English PDF files because I made them.
Aha! So that was the mystery item!
Poor pig!!! Nobody acknowledges its sacrifice for the good of the city! :oMatt Harper acknowledged it in his "If Pigs Could Fly..." variant. https://carcassonnecentral.com/forum/index.php?topic=99.0 (https://carcassonnecentral.com/forum/index.php?topic=99.0)
It hasn't?!Aha! So that was the mystery item!
No, the mystery item has not arrived yet!
It's just a souvenir. Although it is officially-issued currency, the face value of zero euros renders it worthless as currency.It is invention on french business man. You can but these 0 euro notes everywhere in France. Also is common here in Slovakia. It very problematic to collect them because you don't know in which town and which sight is on them.
The thing in the foreground is a magnet.
One of my other hobbies is currency collecting, so the intersection between that and Carcassonne could not be resisted. This is the beginning of another collection.

Beautiful! Do you do anything to treat them and make them shine like that?All of these photos are immediately after opening, so I haven’t done anything to them. The ones that are shiny were well-cared for by their previous owners.
Captain Scarlet and the Mysterons are GO?Gerry Anderson had several supermarionation shows over the years.
It looks a lot like the Thunderbirds, but i'm guessing from the same era?
Very interesting map!
And it seems to include the Dame Carcas story in all the languages listed.... :o

…It looks like you're definitely in hex-mode. You should try and play Fjords too!
@Scott, love the banknotes! Expansion rules forthcoming?… >:DI don’t think so. Awarding a player 50 or 100 bonus points for playing a banknote seems too overpowered.
Another two pieces added to the collection! Both italian versions.
BTW is it a Catalan version?This is what the Amazon entry said but I guess it was a lie then? I have no idea how to distinguish Spanish from Catalan! ^-^
Today's delivery: base game C3 (I wrote some of the text on the back in Deepl and it detected Spanish. It's settled then O0CatalanSpanish version).
I'm Spanish. I can help you tell these languages apart if you need it. ^-^It was all a misunderstanding from my side. Amazon entry had this title: "Devir- Carcassonne Juego de Mesa Edición Castellano". I read "Castellano" and for some reason known only to myself I thought about Catalonia. Instead, "Castellano" apparently means "Spanish". You learn something everyday :))
And a copy of Amazonas from Giochi Uniti!
I should have a French and a Spanish copy waiting for me in various places, and now have the German and Japanese versions here!So you're collecting expansions and spin-offs in as many different languages as you can? That's awesome, great collector stuff right there! I am italian, if you need any translation ;D
Scoring green flags to replace the ones I consumedWait WHAT!? :o

Scoring green flags to replace the ones I consumed[/li][/list]I used them so much that the 50 and 100 ones got consumed (they lost color and they don't "clip" to the meeple anymore)Wait WHAT!? :owhat happened with the first set?
Plus, they came in a frame? Not in a little envelope? Did you get them from cundco?The frame was indeed inside a little Cundco envelope!
Also, they look like the frame is green, but the flags are blank in colour, or is that just me?I had the same reaction too the very first time I got them... you have to peel the color off the flags before using them :)) :green-meeple: :green-meeple: :green-meeple:
To be honest, I currently collect everything from every language.May I ask if you have a picture of your whole collection? That must be incredible!
I used them so much that the 50 and 100 ones got consumed (they lost color and they don't "clip" to the meeple anymore)Aah ok, at first I thought that by "consumed" you meant you have eaten them :D (absurd I know, but I did come across people who would eat weird stuff, so I wouldn't be surprised at this point).
May I ask if you have a picture of your whole collection? That must be incredible!Oh, so you have yet to see the Carcassonne Museum :)

River 3Just to be sure, this is River I from Big Box 5, right? I was assured in a dedicated thread (https://www.carcassonnecentral.com/community/index.php?topic=6068.0) that there was no such thing as "River III" ;D

The tile configurations are the same as River 1.Which is one of the reasons it is the River I.
This is the configuration of River I, but a few details are different (sheep, vines, watermark). It therefore seems logical to me to differentiate them.

+1 to this. There's more to a tile/ expansion than simply the tile configurations, especially when some of those tiles include elements that are unique to that version of that expansion, such as River 3 vs. River 1.

This is the configuration of River I, but a few details are different (sheep, vines, watermark). It therefore seems logical to me to differentiate them.It is differentiated - it is the River I BB5 edition. It is part of the natural progression of River I throughout the history of Carcassonne, the most recent evolution being River I C3 and River I BB7. Both Rivers have had many small changes and improvements over the years, but they are still just a specific version their respective River #.
That looks good! The English version exists! ;D

It's the one indeed. It didn't take too long, just a week from Germany to Italy.Winter came early this year...

- Big Box 4

And i'm pretty sure this is just a promotional image, as i've never seen one ever, but there is the C2 1st edition in case anyone has ever seen it ;)

Apart from these, i believe i have everything HiG ever 'officially' released :)
Sadly the box has been squeezed by DHL (German post service) and the maps have suffered. Does anyone already experienced this ? Could you manage to flatten the maps again ?
Perhaps try to roll them up backwards, to take the curve out of it, and then try to lay it flat somewhere with some weight over the full area of the map? Like under a rug perhaps?
But... Dan... I looked everywhere and... Is it true? There isn't any Carcassonne stuff in that room :o ;D
But apart from maps hidden under the rug I don't have anything else in that roomAre you sure that is safe? :o

Pokessonne is a reskin of Carcassonne, including base game, River 1, River 2, I&C, T&C and the Fruit-Bearing Trees, all in Pokemon theme :DPokessonne looks awesome!!! Is that just a bootlegged version of the fan made game? If so, it needs to be published for real. Would buy in a heartbeat!
Also a game called 3 Kingdoms Battle, which is very similar in base mechanics, but has mission cards and dice to roll. If only i know how they are used, but i need to learn Chinese first :o
Could I ask for a better photo of the Demo game from Taiwan please?Looks identical to the German and Dutch demos.
-I had no idea such a thing existed until today. Anyway, congratulations on getting it!
All seems good so far. What's your concern?Someone tripping over the rug tearing the maps.

Maybe :red-meeple:Finaly you can fulfill your C3 box!
Or maybe "fill-full" ?
Shipping to USA in under 3 weeks; I'm impressed. Though with the cost of shipping it should've come in a gold-lined box! :DMore like 4 weeks for me, but still happy to get Ukraine and Taiwan maps and the Ukraine tiles. For other US members, I bought a few additional Ukraine tiles since already paying through the nose for map shipments. Will offer to mail in the US for $8/each, which represents my actual cost for tiles including the cost of shipping spread across my maps and tiles.
How so?
Wow, a complete set!

"Complete set" you say?

What do you use for protective sleeves? Those of Corinthians13 seem better adjusted.
OK, thanks. My big existential question of the moment related to carcassonne is to know if I invest in sleeves to protect my tiles. ???
If you use a bag to draw the tiles is a must...
Nice additions. Still, every time I see the C3.0 Fest, I cannot stop thinking that if the HiG replaced the outdated number 15 with a more appropriate one for this edition, it would be much better.Problém is that already is expansion represented by number 20.
Is there a Tunnel CII conversion?Yop. Unnoficial of course.
I received a little something from @Linksux and @oldbonz today! :D
Thank you very much for these lovely tiles, now waiting for the final rules of The Giant ... >:D
very happy to have received this impression this morning

Congrats!!!
Ready for Spiel'23 Promo Tile?
The new Winter Edition arrived while I was away from home the past month.Is this the one with actual monasteries?
Not sure what you mean by that. This is the 2022 Winter Edition (WE3).The new Winter Edition arrived while I was away from home the past month.Is this the one with actual monasteries?
Here 2 photos of the composition of the inlay sets.
The four sheets at the top of the big set have all the same design. This means there are two different designs of the inlays.
You get all 10 maps in new Carcassonne 3.0 Design (including the brand new Nordics Map) + Map chips + a Map Meeple set (6x2 Meeple) + 72 tiles of the basic game 2.1.
Two of my guards didn't come out quite right though. Poor guys.

I can think of at least one Carcassonne related book that's available on Amazon that would have been a much better investment!
I guess many of us receive a same or similar package these days... :-DMine hasn't even left Germany yet and it was posted about 12 hours after the sale started. Lol.
I was not happy when my copy of The Bets came with no foil. The same happens for The Drawbridges?
Needed to add something to an Amazon order to get free shipping, so this was what I choose:

The cover is the nicest part of the very thin book. The typesetting is very amateur. There are literally hyperlinks in various places which are completely useless in a printed book.

I made a tray for them. There’s a thread in the Crafting forum.
Do you think this version may have some side effects on championship participants? ;)
Ooooh! Will you build it?I think eventually. There are some things I need to think through.
The pest is here! :D
Good surprise: it came with the Spielbox magasine, it wasn't specified when I ordered it :)
I hope the tiles are not damaged
Metallic meeple from Wyrmwood, they are as beautiful as they are heavy !(https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20240117/a10164ea1f59603fc054fe893f9e8526.jpg)

Beautiful piece! :)Define "complete" there's always more to look for >:D >:D
My Carcassonne collection is complete except for this points counter...
Of course congratulations on this trade!
The story behind them i find more interesting than the scoreboard itself, but it is a fun entry into the world of Carcassonne ;D
Congrats on finding one, and hopefully it didn't costs you an arm and/or leg ;)
Well done! I dread to think what you had to do to find it.
I've always appreciated the idea behind this. We've got a load of mis-printed score tiles.... let's get KJW to doodle on some paper-tape, stick them on the board, and sign each of them. At least the proceeds went to a good charity.
PS: I do worry someone of low-moral fibre will use a lovely image like this and replicate it for ebay.
Imagine my satisfaction: this is the only Spiel tile I didn't had!May I ask the price you paid?
I feel a bit more complete today ^-^
...Daniel Chard mentioned it on a Facebook group...
@danisthirty I'm reading a chapter from his book every evening, I know how sneaky he can be, yes!
Also, as I told him on the group: "if it's not listed on Wica, it's not official enough for me, that's my excuse" (and this avoids me using the very few € Carcassonne left me before finding the few expansions I'm still missing :D )
Anyway: do you have more info about this tile? I think I heard about it on the forum but can't find it anymore... Was it a fan made tile?
Preparing for our trip in May...
(https://i.ibb.co/j6NKgjV/IMG-20240130-214618-01.jpg)
It is a fan made tile, almost more as a wink or even a joke. Made by @MMike !What tile is everyone talking about? Been reading the conversation the last few days and feeling a bit confused. ;D

I suppose, it's @MMike 's "Spiel '1" (stone age style with Volcano) fan made tile signed by KJWOh, yes. I do remember seeing them a while back. Thanks for enlightening me. ;D

I think there's an official milk sachet expansion too.... although his signature might have rubbed off by now.
Very few things are left to find... Things are not easy now :DWhat's left on your wish list?
what is this box?Carcassonne - Kreivi ja Kuningas (English: The Count & the King) is a compilation of three small expansions — The River II, The Count of Carcassonne and King & Scout.
Just received a few Lucca map today :DWhere did you find the maps? I’d like to buy one of those…
