Any news? Nothing here: https://cundco.de/herbst-neuheiten-2022/.

On the main page, somewhat hidden, is the following sentence:
"And last but not least there is of course the Spiel '22 tile for all trade fair visitors who make purchases from one of our shops with a purchase value of € 20.00 or more."

Wow! Never thought these promo tiles would become so popular.

We gave them all away as a gift to Carcassonne Spain members back in July 2022.

I'll keep you posted if we manage to print some more.

How are they printed?

directly on blank tiles.
by the way I am very interested in those beautiful expansion!

@lr

sorry, I'm not sure I understood your question.
Do you mean which Carcassonne remakes or knock-offs exist worldwide?

However, it is getting more and more "off-topic" here, so maybe further questions better via pm, or in a new thread.

Regarding knock-offs from Iran and knock-offs from Ukraine, there are already two threads with photos here.

Iranian "carcassonne like boardgames"

ukrainian "carcassonne like boardgames"

@Bumsakalaka

Where does this info about Russian fake promos actually come from? - or is that just a rumor 

It is shared experience of one of Czech forum member.

Sorry I can tell you which one, because it was on my first forum meeting and I saw members faces for first time.

Issue was that rounding of tiles didn't fit to original russian tiles and also that paper material was better then original russian promos tiles.

So not rumor, experience.

thanks you very much!
thats indeed interesting, because a tile in better quality indeed could be an indication of a fake, in fact, the poor quality of the Russian tiles is more likely to be an indicator of original products ;-)

Then, however, such fakes would be real rarities - haha.

Maybe I should ask in the Czech forum - pictures of it would interest me very much.

General / Re: Was the C1 version of Hills and Sheeps printed in like 10 copies or what?

If you do not care about the language, here is probably an edition of Devir from Spain.

Thank you for the info! Just purchased a copy, they have another one if anyone is interested. Asked about it and they confirmed it's C1. Total price for Italy 35€ (16€ + 19€ shipping)

Thanks for your feedback!

Honestly, I collect these promos passionately and would like to know how such a fake should be recognizable - but I suspect that there are no fakes at all   

Except for "official homemade" productions with European C-tiles.

And if you are even deeper into the "homeade-pnp-knock.off-scene", the following observation of the last years:
Not even the illustrious "P.h.e.y." fakes Russian promo tiles, or at least he has never offered them for sale on his usual platforms, in contrast to many other Carcassonne things.

If you mean the Russian promos with the "K" backwards - those are official printruns - just like the different shades of green.

By the way, "no kidding" I also like to collect carcassonne knock-offs, so from that point of view I would even be okay with Chinese Russian promo-fakes 
But as much as I try, I keep finding only originals

So, since I've started my quest of collecting every piece of the game, I more or less managed to find everything here or there (Amazon, eBay, Vinted, here on this forum...) but I'm failing to find a decent copy of the C1 version of Hills and Sheeps.
It's very frustrating because it's the only "major" piece of Carcassonne that I'm missing, but it's nowhere to be found (unless you want to spend 150 USD for it).
I'm totally OK with "minor" pieces to be hard to find or expensive but why is this particular extension so unfindable at a decent price? Even The Catapult is way easier to find than this.

If you do not care about the language, here is probably an edition of Devir from Spain.
https://comicstores.es/producto/carcassonne-colinas-y-ovejas-_160355
Shipping to Italy is possible and payment e.g. via paypal.

All in all definitely cheaper than ebay&amazon and co.


PS: But better ask there if you are interested, whether it really is the C1 edition.

What are the chances that the version that will be displayed at the event will be different - even slightly - from the official October release?
In the latest video they said the development of the game is complete only to 98%...

These are pretty sure the final products.
Or to express it another way, the game is 100% finished, so would be strange if HiG would have taken older issues to the event.
Source: private mail exchange with HiG management on (01-09-22) - It was about another topic, but in a side sentence the full completion of the game was mentioned.

Malheureusement non.

ok, because otherwise I could have given it to you or someone you know maybe at the fair.
Do you actually want the whole game or just the river expansion?

Sorry, by bad. Didn't check the availability
