It seems Z-Man is catching up to HiG in terms of expansions so I'm hoping this means we will be getting an announcement for Hills & Sheep soon in English New Art.

We were hoping for one of each tile configuration from the base game. That would see us collecting tiles for another 16 years or so :D
I would prefer it if they used tiles that only appeared once in one expansion as I feel like there are already enough of the types of tiles the Spiel 14-17 tiles have been.

I hope they continue producing tiles in the hope that one day there's a Spiel-spin-off :D
I like the sound of this idea although I think if they do, a re-release of all the tiles would make sense so everyone could complete their collections.

Does anyone know if there will be a Spiel 18 tile this year? I'm asking because I think I might have seen something about one not being released.
Thanks for your help :).

News release yesterday on Z-Man website for this game.
https://www.zmangames.com/en/news/2018/3/19/manipulate-the-city-in-the-6th-expansion-for-carcassonne/
I'm quite excited about this as I only collect English New Art.

While I 100% agree that it is lazy of HiG to not work out the rules, I believe these expansions are good for the game because if there are more expansions there are the more ways we have to play the game which allows for every game to be different which helps prevent the game doesn't become stale.

I'm curious if they will release a new expansion and give it the 7th spot or release something we already know and give it the 7th spot (Maybe Wheel Of Fortune, or a collection of promos and mini expansions, much like the 6th Expansion)
Perhaps HiG could combine those ideas and release Wheel of Fortune along with some mini-expansions.

Quote from: Carcassonne: The Fruit-Bearing Trees rulesheet
You can choose the related type of fruit, however, it does not matter which type of fruit you put there, in terms of the game. Thus, any tree and any type of fruit may be combined!

Dumb stuff like that just makes a game look dorky. Makes me wonder if during development anyone was paying attention and asking good questions, or it was just all getting phoned in.
It might sound better/make more sense in German but since I don't speak it I don't know.

Seems like a good start.

I did this for the base a a while ago:

Because of The Markets of Leipzig mini-expansion, something that tells people how many tiles with the small illustrations there is.

Does the dragon eat fruits, too?
I would say no because on page 3 of the English rules for The Princess & the Dragon from Z-Man Games it says "Rule of thumb: The dragon eats all that is flesh and blood!". Since fruit is not "flesh and blood" I think the dragon can't eat it :).

Carcassonne really needs to increase its infrastructure spending.  You can't just let trees grow in the middle of roads.   :yellow-meeple:

Next up was Carcassonne, I rarely get to play 4-player and it's nice to see such a busy board.  I was late to the scoretrack, but it was a close game as you'll see.


I think I deserve merit for straightening up the tiles.
Merit Given :)
