Different river expansions, how many are there.
« on: August 11, 2016, 08:21:25 PM »
How many are there? I know of the River I and II but someone said one of the big boxes might have had a third.

The old graphics has 3 versions, yes.

River I
River II

And there is a River in Big Box 5 (the one with 7th and 8th player) that we all refer to River 3 though it's not officially named that.
  These river tiles are different in regards that some of them have elements for Sheep and Hills and, if I recall, other expansions as well.

These are easy to distinguish as they have 3 waves watermark on them.

Are the River III ones just subtleties in the art or are they completely different functionality too?

This image may help!

You can see the vineyards and the sheep tiles.
  Not sure about the rest of the world, but the Scandinavian edition, these tiles has a much darker grass than the older version of the game. I'd almost go as far as to say they are v1.5. :)

in total i have the following 7 versions

  • The River I (No Watermark) - This is an original copy of the river with no t-junction
  • The River I (Copyright tiles) - This is the same as above except it has the PC copyright codes on the back of each tile
  • The River II (No Watermark) - This is the updated river with a t-junction and volcano at one end
  • The River II (Russian Tiles) - This is the same as above except the Russian version with K tiles instead of C
  • The River II (Crown Watermark) - This is the same as River II except the watermark on the tiles is the Crown
  • The River III (River Watermark and Sheep/Garden icons) - This is the Bigbox 5 version of the river and has sheep and gardens on it as per the expansions in the bigbox
  • The River NEW ART - This is the new art style version of the river

+ The GQ11 expansion - 2 river tiles - Spring with road and middle river tile with two opposite cities


i could do you some photos if you want?

+ don't forget the GQ11 rivertiles. Not a complete expansion but definitely worth it.

The River II (Russian Tiles) - This is the same as above except the Russian version with K tiles instead of C

if I am not wrong this tiles have a own "russian" watermark similar to the watermark on river III (BigBox)
