Title: What on-line site offers the most expansions
Post by: StatDaddy on April 13, 2020, 10:11:22 AM
We have been playing Carcassonne at BoardGameArena and enjoy it.  We get the following expansions that we like to use

Inns and Cathedrals
Traders and Builders

We also like to use the expansions:

Occults and Sieges
Abbey and Mayor

Does anyone know of a site that also uses these expansions.

Have you tried JCloisterZone (JCZ)? It is not an online gaming site but a Java application you can use to play a lot of expansions available until 2014 or so (old art of course). The application also allows you to set up network games and even play against AI players. All players have to install it on their computers and join a game created by one of the players.

You can find here a tutorial I prepared to help anyone to use the "Play Online" option:

JCZ has another method to play network games where one of the player hosts the game (you need to open some ports on your router for this). You can find a tutorial for this option by Danisthirty here:

http://www.carcassonnecentral.com/community/index.php?topic=778.0 (http://www.carcassonnecentral.com/community/index.php?topic=778.0)

Please find attached a screenshot of what you may find in JCZ. I'm using JCZ 4.3.2 for network games as it is more stable than 4.4.1 where Farin, the lead developer and member of this forum, is incorporating Hills & Sheep.

Hope this helps!

BGA (boardgamearena) is the best online but you need premium account to create games... I hope this website includes more expansions and not only river, I&C and T&B.

The only place I've seen these expansions offered is JCloisterZone. I think it's fair to say that I prefer playing at BGA now, but JCloisterZone is unrivalled in terms of expansions available.

Cundco offers quite a few expansions, probably the most and usually before others.
