Actually castles are a lot of fun when playing with 3 or more. They are a bit powerfull considering they can mooch of large cities but i feel they deliver quite a lot of strategic depth to the gameplay.

There was someone on here talking about a German company that does BB5 for 30
It is the "real"-supermarket - on this site you can search for a market http://www.real.de/markt-aendern.html
Nearly everywhere in Germay the children get St. Nicolas presents in the morning of the 6th of December. You have to clean a shoe and place it at the doorway. I think in the netherlands you get bigger presents ... Thereafter St. Nicolas goes to the pole, fetches the reindeers and flies to the United States for the 24th of December. He masquerades as Santa Claus ... (In German he's called Sankt Nikolaus) while in Germany the children get their presents from the Christmas man (in Northern Germany / whom they call Father Christmas in England) or from the Christ Child himself (in Southern Germany).
I think the St. Nicolas action will be of HiG or Cundco themselves, not of 999 games in the Netherlands
Well at least the germans are more creative with namegiving. In holland Santa Claus is called "De Kerstman" Which literally translates into "The Christmasguy" It was Cundco answering the mail so it think it was them.

They know i'm dutch cause i ordered from them before. And the german Saint Nicolas does excist.I just don't think it's that widespread in Germany. http://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nikolaus_von_Myra. Anyways i think its good news if u can order the tile in another way.

I just ordered the besieger and halfing expansion from cundco and i asked them if they would make an exeption and include a spiel 2014 tile. This was the answer i received.
"thanks for your order. We're really sorry but the promo tile was exclusively for the Spiel 2014 and will not be sold (or give away) sepatately. BUT, we'll include it in future special actions,maybe for Saint Nicolas, so keep your eyes open. ;-)"
So it seems we'll be able to get it on a later date afterall.
(P.s: Dutch and German Saint nicolas is on the fifth/sixth of december. It's like santa claus without the christmas, obesity and radio-active reindeer)

I hope your wife feels better soon. Will this be your first child?
I feel your pain. But being a dad is better than owning every edition of every game, and every expansion with them!
Well she is doing better. She gets a hard Belly when she does 2 much And gets upset easily so iTS a new experience especially since this is this is The first child. So it is exciting And Busy. Only 12more weeks.

About a month ago I told my cousin about Half and Half and to this day he doesn't believe me this expansion exist.
Some of reasons as to why are: - I can't say Half and Half with a straight face to him - Explaining the tile's shape, that they are indeed triangles, is just way too farfetched of an idea
And he refuses to look it up for himself because he think's I'm just messing with him!
Hell it took me 5 years to get my wife to accept carcassonne might be a Nice game. And altough she enjoys it now she was really surprised there actually is a forum. Which i probably shouldn't have mentioned cause her form of humor would be to subribe And start trolling around in here...dammit
