Big Box 5 - A New Big Box in the Netherlands

[SRBO]

But at least they have a new WATERmark (pun intended) to identify them easily.

Yeah but if you put the rivers together it just doesnt fit quite well..

So is this the only big box which has actual new tiles in there?

I would say adjusted tiles

[Guesclin]

Isnt every tile an adjustment of this tile?  I'm feeling very poetic today.

For all with friends or relatives (or holiday)in Germany: The new BigBox can be bought now in the real markets for 30 Euro.

(No, I don't work in a real market and for true, only the BigBox is cheap there, base game and expansions are not so cheap.)

Looks like a bargain. Do they ship to the UK?

[Fritz_Spinne]

The online shop only ships in Germany.

@cidervampire (and others), I am in the UK and ordered BB5 from German eBay. The total cost including shipping was only €52.95 which is likely cheaper than the box alone will be when it comes out in the UK! It hasn't arrived yet, but I will update here when it does.

That’s exactly what I did. Apart from having to navigate the site in German in order to order BB5 (this was helped by Chrome translating everything for me) it was all very plain-sailing for me. I ordered it last week Wednesday and it arrived (in the UK) on the Saturday. Very impressed!

Other than this I’m not sure what else to say about it. Including postage and exchange rates etc the whole thing cost £40.69 which, as JT Atomico says, is about what it will cost when it’s released in English anyway.

Thanks for the heads up, think I'll get it on pay day.

For the French Carcassonne fans here, I was told by a Games shop here in Geneva today that the French (Filosofia) edition of the Big Box 5 might come out next month ("Annoncé pour Décembre sans certitude").

If we all would arrive together going in to that store, would it be called a Geneva Convention?

Someone has the german (HiG) version of this? Or can you confirm the codes for the tiles are identical?

I ordered some BB5 tiles from Cundco and I got something different! I'd like to know if it's my mistake or they messed up my order...

At CarcF you can find the German rules for the BigBox5

We did the correction reading for the German rules.
There were some mistakes in the codes for the tiles (Sheep and Hills - Schafe und Hügel)
