If you were planning a game of Carcassonne for 3 or 4 experienced players but were required to stick to a specific number of tiles (200 - 220 in this case), which expansions would you include and why?
200 - 220 is larger than I'm used to but it makes sense in my head that the first 5 big expansions would be included. This brings the total to 174 already. I'd also include Mage & Witch, The Fliers and The Goldmines from the 2012 minis which is another 24 tiles (198 in total).
My final additions would be Besiegers and King & Robber Baron for an additional 11 tiles. We'd play with the house-rule that the owner of the King or Robber Baron tile gets 1 point for each road or city that is completed while they're the King or Robber Baron rather than counting everything up at the end though...
And each player would have a phantom, 3 bridges and 3 castle pieces too. That would be my ideal "large" game. I'm keen to hear what configurations other people would go with...
