Udo Schmitz and Klaus-Jürgen Wrede are on Tour with Carcassonne-on-Tour in the North of Germany.

One of their jobs is to play some test games with fan-expansions. A CarcassonneCentral fan-expension will come at the HiG homepage next year.

At the photos you can see the 4 fan-expansions what they are testing.

Thanks for these great photos, kettlefish! Hopefully they enjoyed the games with the fan-expansions.
If I'm not mistaken one of the expansions they tested is "Mills and bakeries". I wonder what the other 3 could be.
Anyway, did they choose the expansions themselves, or did someone (maybe you?

) help them by making suggestions?

Udo didn't say anything more in his emails to me. So I don't know more information about their test games with the fan-expansions.
The fan-expansions - the authors here from CarcC decided which of the around 200 fan-expansions should go to HiG. HiG (also Udo Schmitz) have 16 fan-expansions from CarcC.
Before Udo went on tour with Carcassonne-on-Tour (CoT) he asked me which of the 16 fan-expansions should go with him and CoT on tour? We decided 4 fan-expansions and as far as I know the Campaign (the new version) from whaleyland is also on tour.

News about fan-expansion for the HiG homepage:

August 2015:
- Fortune Teller - by Jputt927:
The CoT test team (Udo Schmitz, Klaus-Jürgen Wrede and Willi Weber) likes this fan-expansion.
There are really new elements of game play and family friendy.

some thoughts about some changes for this fan-expansion:
- 2 more landscape tiles - perhaps in total 10 tiles
- a maximum of tortune teller tiles (2-3) for each player at the same time
- drawing the tiles from a bag and not from the tile tower

November 2015:
In November 2015 was a meeting between Udo, KJW and HiG:
Udo Schmitz, Klaus-Jürgen Wrede and Dirk Geilenkeuser (HiG) tested again the fan-expansions.
They have chosen "Fortune Teller" from JPutt927.

January 2016:
Again test games and then Moritz Brunnhofer (HiG) gave the approval for "Fortune Teller".
Udo Schmitz contacted JPutt927.

April 2016:
Christof Tisch is writing the rules for the HiG homepage and make the design. I do the correction reading.
The fan-expansion will come in both languages (German and English) and in both Carcassonne editions.

And it will be print-and-play, like the previous one?

the English rules are still not complete finished with correction reading and I have not yet a new writing update.

We have almost finished the work for the tiles, German and English rules.
I hope that the fan-expansion will be online at the HiG homepage in the next few days.

Thank you for the information and the sneek peek, Kettlefish!

It really is a great service that the expansion will come in both the new and the classic artwork.
