Great tiles!  The images all seem to imply relaxation, so here is a rules proposal:

When a special tile is drawn, it is placed as usual.  But no meeple may be placed on the tile.  In fact, no meeple may be placed by any following player on their next turn, so the next occasion when a meeple could be placed will be on the next turn of the player who originally drew the special tile.  (You could prohibit all "move wood" actions and even the dragon would not move!)

This might be too many idle turns?  (Actually, maybe I'll try this as a house rule for any FFFF tiles with no cloister.)

Anyway, have fun.  Would love to see a photo of a final landscape where all these tiles were in play!

Great!

I really like this idea better, because the first one might give monumental points advantage on fields which will disturb the balance of the game overall.

The second idea includes the possibility that we can come accross many more of those Marcel Gröber tiles from the Carcassonne event without having to change the rules. Remember, there are at least 20 more of such tiles out there!!
The player can decide at the beginning of the game how many giant tiles they want to give to each player (according to the number of giant tiles available at that moment and according to the number of players participating in the game)

Love it!  :(y)

There are 26 existing tiles exactly with the meepedrone’s tile.
But I don’t think we can’t get more than the 6 we already have…

What [mention]oldbonz [/mention]and [mention]Meepledrone [/mention]think about the idea of playing a second turn with the special tile when ever a player want ? (tiles distributed at the start of the game)

I don't think it needs to be used as starting tile, this tile also exists in the normal base game (other than starting tile)

On the other hand, it can be a good idea to use it as a starting tile.

It reminds the players to read the rules of the game (and ask for clarification) before starting the game!    ;D ;D ;D

Is this tile welcome to the party?



I posted this little "thank you" video for the wonderful tile on Instagam:

@Meepledrone did you see that @Linksux is waiting for an answer concerning the rules? (See 3 posts earlier)

Yes... ha ha ha!

You could povide various rules sets:
* No points and maybe starting tiles
* Field points buster (+1 point giant in a field) - giant tiles shuffeled as usual
* Additional turn (one giant tiles per player distributed at random during game setup)

You could also use a similar mechanic to The Astronomers (by @Decar ), where you get points when placing the tile and extra points if aligned with other giant tiles placed previously:

Why not providing new options? >:D

Well, if you want something "new" then the rules of the Astronomers are "old" too  ;)

I had suggested the following rules (as something new):

The giant helps a meeple climb the outer wall of the city, and therefore the meeple has direct access to the city.
This means when you add a "giant" tile to a city, you can place one of your meeples on the city segment EVEN IF the city is already occupied

another way is possible, each player starts the game with a giant in his reserve, he places it when he wants during the game on his turn, he places a meeple on it, when the 8 adjacent tiles are placed he takes back his meeple, does not count points but has the possibility of playing with an additional follower

Nice idea!  This one sounds particularly fun, and appropriate to the giant theme.

soon some of us will have 5 different tiles, we can consider, since the giants are in the fields, that the player who places his giant can place a farmer on the area that interests him if it is not occupied

Hey @oldbonz,
yes, it's 6 tiles now, but the black man standing is not from Marcel Gröber. You missed the man lying in the field....  :D
