Well that effectively qualifies it as C3 in my book.

That seems like a strange qualification criteria since the backs were the same between C1 and C2... ?
New backs and confirmation that expansions will come with these backs going forward from August does it for me yes, as I said, ‘in my book’, others are free to come to their own conclusions. emoji code846]

And if those expansions come with the UV print too then that would seal the deal.  (Again, in my mind at least)

That’s the bit I’m still on the fence about, if it is April Fools gag then quite a devious one, well played HiG and 999Games.

Do they have history of this type of thing? I’ve not been round long enough..

Actually yes they do. But if this turns out to be real, I want my C3 Catapult with motorised launching function and AAA batteries included  >:D

Did anyone really believe this was real? :o :o :o

After all the clarifications we had, and tile's back already pictured on multiple 20 anniversary teasers, and it's April 1st ?

You made my day!  ;D  :yellow-meeple:

I'm in for the motorized catapult  ;D

You’ve heard about the things that start as April Fools jokes but get turned real due to fan demand right?

What would be really devious is an April Fools being used to test market reaction to an potential idea.. emoji code48] see the fans reaction and appetite (or not) for re-buying everything..

I don’t do Twitter, is it alight with #CarcassonneRage or #CarcassonneJoy? emoji code1787]emoji code1787]

What about Spielbox exclusive extension Tires & Driver's license, which enables you to actually take your Catapult and hit the road!

? ? ?

Making obvious jokes is a way to make people talk about something, and to have a little fun. A lot of manufacturers, medias, resellers...etc are making such jokes on april the 1st...
Missing this opportunity to make a joke would be unprofessional  ;D  :yellow-meeple:

Chillax dude. O0 I fell for it for about five minutes, and found it pretty funny when I realised that it didn't make sense for so many reasons.

That's what April Fools Day is all about, and that's one of the better jokes I've seen in the last few years. Calling it "very unprofessional" is unnecessarily harsh imho O:-)
