Flea stickers arrived today for my Plague upgrade project. I only ordered 25 stickers but they sent me 216, so if anyone else wants to make wooden flea tokens...

I'm happy with the results, so now I will order the numbered stickers as well as a set of tunnel stickers.

Awesome, I can't quite tell from the photo, what's the quality of the print like, they had some concerns over the image resolution.

They really want you to get infected...

I tried to take a close-up, but it doesn't show well. It's not quite as vibrant as the original tokens, but it doesn't look low-resolution at all.

There we go. It exists! :-D My Cundco order, plus my Count, King and Robber I got after checking every state in Australia on Facebook Marketplace at least 6 times a day for about a month. Saw the listing in another state and said I would pay double if he was willing to post it!

So has everyone seen that there are new boxes for mini expansions on Cundco? Don't quite like them as much as the old blue ones, but I went ahead and bought 15 as they are still better value than the old ones on the aftermarket. Also ordered a set of teacher meeples. Thought since you can't get pink and purple phantoms, that I would use the teachers as phantoms and use one of my phantoms as a teacher. Pretty sure from a post I saw from someone comparing the different meeple, the teacher meeples look better suited as "phantoms" of the regular meeple anyway.

Of course! Everybody knows the Teachers are better Phantoms than Phantoms, even HiG agrees with us

Is that a thing is it? Lol. I was just trying to complete my phantom set and thought it would be the best option. Didn't realise it was a common opinion!

This is what I bought to ~~complete~~ replace my Phantom set:
https://www.meeplesource.com/proddetail.php?prod=AcrylicMeepleSampler
Meeple Source has a few additional colours not part of this set, but they have a 10-meeple minimum...

Here's a cheaper option, but fewer colours available:

They have other useful things too.

That's it ! I officially have all the different official printed tiles from CI (yes I see you Porwada but I don't want you !)

Was not thinking about getting those since I'm not a big fan of the K on the back since I usually play with tower and not with bags, but I guess that if I invest in sleeves I could get rid of that issue

Congratulations, those are beautiful tiles, and nice to play with!

Not strictly Carcassonne-related, but a game I started playing with other Carcassonne fans and one that I think very highly of!

I've been trying to avoid getting hold of a copy of Azul by all means?

Is this a bad thing to do? $:-\$

If you're trying to avoid getting hold of a copy then getting hold of a copy would definitely be a bad thing to do!

It's a fun game though. I've only played 10 or so games on BGA but that was enough to convince me. I like the tile drafting, and there are a lot of interesting decisions to be made in terms of how you place them.
