That divider is quite nice! Unusual for an official divider to have dedicated spaces for everything specifically. Also river watermark on divider, but none on the tiles  ??? ?

Hmm… I wasn’t planning on getting a new big box but if this offers something unique then I guess I have to. Part of me wishes this was a big box with just the 20th anniversary edition included and then some of the other usuals so I wouldn’t have to get it but here we are!  :red-meeple:

I wonder long until this shows up in the states if at all.

French dates are usually dd/mm/yyyy  :yellow-meeple:

I date all my files yyyy.mm.dd. They organize really, really nicely that way. -  :pink-meeple:

Sure, that's a worldwide way to sort files on computers, Frenchly too, but that's a totally different matter  :yellow-meeple:

Good looking box.

Uninteresting contents. The same big box contents again for the *third* time. Still no C2 Wheel of Fortune.

Continuing with the trend for round tile corners and terrible looking crowded and cut houses in cities.

Box shows a lot of tile and meeple placement errors.

1 new unique tile.

2/10. No effort.

Another symbol for The Ferries. Modified source tile and lake tile. Rounder corners. Clipped buildings. Modified trade good tokens. Beside these, just some slightly minor changes. At the end of rulebook; the abbot is scored in step 2 or step 3?

I was checking the Supplementary rules of the 20th Anniversary Edition and they state that you remove the sbbot in 2. Placing a meeple, then you go to 3. Scoring a feature and score the abbot. Afterwards you score all the other festures as usual.

This sequence is clear in the latest rules of the base game. Let's see the Big Box 7 rules.

This matches what they hinted on discord: no scoring takes plce in 2. Placing a meeple. This then overrides the clarification about the abbot from 3/2015. I understand this approach will also apply to acrobats, the shepherd and fruit actions.

Oh really they start to make rounded corner on all the tiles ? I didn't open my anniversary box yet but if that's the case i'm really dissapointed :(

Beccasue correct me if i'm wrong but all mini expansions + all officials 1 - 10big expansions + older big bow are all with sharp edges right ?

So far, only stuffs released this year have rounded corners and new city density, that is the peasant revolt, 2021 big box and the 20 anniversary edition.

They'll probably keep this line for future releases, maybe existing major expansions will be reprinted with those changes too, but probably not existing mini expansions  :yellow-meeple:

The Greek edition costs 50€, which is quite reasonable if not cheap, since the cost of the base game and the two major expansions amounts to more than 50€.

Exactly, surely this is the new edition for the future… I couldn’t play C2.1 with C2.2…. My OCD wouldn’t allow me…
I will wait for the big box on cundco….

@petul noticed on Czech forum weird distribution of Ferries tiles on picture of BigBox 2021.
As before, there were 1x RRRR, 4x RRRF and 3x RRRC.
But when looking on picture, you can see, that there are 3x RRRR, 3x RRRC and 1x RRRF and once probably repainted 1x RRRF (but original taken from RRRR).
