Monastery Completionism
« on: May 12, 2021, 12:34:47 PM »
As my completionism continues to take turns through never ending corridors of the rabbit hole, I feel I may have finally hit the end of one of the paths!

Thanks to The-Edge I was able to obtain a 999 Games version of De Klooster!

Can anyone confirm whether or not I am missing another version? The only thing I can think of is if the Japanese Temples that came in the base Japanese game is different (I consider major color variations as different).

Hahaha! Welcome to the wonderful world of completionism!
Very well done to have them all so nicely together. When I heard of the colour difference between the 999 Games and HiG version of the Dutch&Belgian Monasteries, I thought I hit a wall as well, but turned out I already had both.

This kind of special attention does make the collecting of Carcassonne extra fun for me, although there is only a very fine line between when something is a different version (how much colour difference is enough difference  ;) )

Thank you Allograft . I agree. He is a great guy!

I do have Cathedrals as well MMike  :D

That is the best kind of surprise Willem. Finding out you already have something, especially when it is fairly hard to come by! I had decided not to worry with 999s version (especially living in the US), but I could not pass it up when the opportunity arose. I agree with you on the fine line. I like to have the mini expansions that are in different colors/shades, but I am not too caught up over the base game and major expansions that have variations. Such as the earlier C2 cities that are darker than the newer ones.

I am glad you received the monasteries.
I thought there was something wrong with the shipment of the package. You never know.
I'm glad I was able to help you with the monasteries.
You also helped me with my monasteries.
But you can clearly see the color differences.

Have fun with it.
To meeple or not to meeple, that's the question
