Please look to the example landscape picture - the pigs in green and red are placed onto a farm without a farmer meeple onto these farms.

I actually made a post about the 3(!) Versions of the big box that are known already.

Yes the Box itself has this mistake.

I've got several of them, from different publishers. The first wave released have the most errors, and the second wave has seen tiles corrected.

I wonder when the third wave will come with everything corrected

If HiG/CundCo did everything perfectly, you would all be bored and out of business. So stop complaining  >:D

Now Willem needs to buy all 3 boxes because they have different games at different stages of error-ness (?) on display. So he is happy because his museum is filling and filling ..... if Willem is happy we are all happy  ;D (and even HiG/CundCo is happy  ;) - but for a different reason  :o)

Haha +1 from me, for telling them how it is.  Willem's secretly happy about needing 3 editions (from each country)  >:D

Don't let HiG fool you...

The artist was using a outdated HiG FAQ from the early days as reference. Those days builders and pigs where meeples with strength 0 that could stay alone on features until a new fellow meeple was placed on the same feature again...

If you want so see how the world of Carcassonne was in 2006 check this FAQ (just in case, meeple = follower):
http://www.modernjive.com/carcassonne/carcassonnefaq.htm

There are a number of things that changed shorty after, so this is a total blast from the past.

All the clarifications you needed back then can be found here, including the page above, clarifications for the River and Cathars (the outer rim of the Solar System those days):

This is my favorite official clarification from the document  ;D "Try to think while playing.  Players may have an unfinished River...but it‘s their own fault."

So finally Big Box 2021 by MINDOK (identical content as selling in Poland from December 2021 - including Polish / Czech texts and Polish / Slovak / Czech rules) are selling now also in Czechia and Slovakia.
With name Big Box 2022 :D
