Query on hard to find sets/ exclusives
« on: October 13, 2021, 10:29:45 PM »
Hey folks - just wondering if a set is hard to find or an exclusive (like Darmstadt for instance) - is it acceptible to re-create the tiles yourself by printing them & adding to some Creativity blank tiles? Do people like that or do you think it cheapens those sets? I ask as I did a nice sticker set of the Russian exclusives as well as Cathars, Seige, Plague, Tunnels & such just for myself... would you guys like them posted up to download & create your own or not a thing that should be done?

Example attached

Hi,

Thanks for your concern and for asking before posting these files.

Posting them online wouldn't be a good idea (maybe even an illegal idea), as they are copyrighted content. We all care about protecting an author's work.

So posting them online: No.  :'(

But privatly sharing them to other users upon request is nice and fair I think (I printed the russian promos and Darmstadt thanks to another member of this forum before acquiring the original tiles). As long as you don't make money for them, that would be totally unfair and illegal  :yellow-meeple:

Yes, we are allowed to create fan expansions using variations of existing tiles, but not replicating them as is.

Carcassonne Star Wars is the only set we cannot use to create fan expansions due to copyright issues with Disney.

You can check this thread for more detailed info:

In any case, thank you for sharing.
