I made a spreadsheet for Carcassonne Maps
« on: October 19, 2022, 09:27:55 PM »
I made a Google Spreadsheet. It allows you to select expansions and then will tell you if you have enough tiles for a Carcassonne Map. Feel free to download a copy of it and try it yourself! As a side note, making this spreadsheet has taught me a few interesting tidbits:
  • As of the release of Ghosty Spook Night, there are enough tiles among unique C3 releases that one could play the combined USA maps using only C3 tiles and just one copy of the base game. In fact, using the house rule suggested by @corinthiens13 , one would have to remove only a single expansion (consisting of 8 tiles or more) to do so!
  • The entirety of BB6/7 plus an additional base game is enough tiles to play the combined USA maps
Some technical notes:
  • This assumes that, when playing with the Wheel of Fortune; the Count of Carcassonne; or Ghosts, Manors, and Cemeteries; the oversized starting tile(s) are set off to the side (or unused entirely), and the normal starting tile is used instead. Honestly, I'd be impressed if you somehow managed to make those fit in the map itself.
  • Also, The Markets of Leipzig is not included.
  • This spreadsheet also assumes that rivers are not included.
  • Any expansions that do not include landscape tiles are omitted, for hopefully obvious reasons.
  • Additionally, any tiles in a player's supply (Abbeys, German Castles, Halflings) are omitted.
  • As I don't own any C1 things, everything in that column is based solely on my reading of Wikicarpedia.
  • My ego is not so large that I cannot take constructive criticism. I'm open to suggestions on layout/aesthetics, and corrections in case I missed something or have the wrong tile count for something.

Thanks Doom Shark, sounds like a useful tool. So I've given you a +1 merit.  it looks like I need to request access for it though; would it be possible to share it publicly?

Hm, I thought I had; let me look into that

Edit: Found the issue, I accidentally linked the wrong document from my google drive. Should be fixed now
