I quote the HiG page discussing Submission Guidelines... https://www.hans-im-glueck.de/en/verlag/autorenleitfaden.html Quote EXPANSIONS AND CARCASSONNE So, if you want to create expansions for Carcassonne, you are in the right track. 3859

Hi all,
The Land Surveyors is now available on WICA: http://wikicarpedia.com/index.php/The_Land_Surveyors It includes some consideration about its combination with other expansions. The Timeline page has been updated to include it too but there is still some pending work to include the new scoring tiles in the reference pages. I will keep you al posted. Cheers! 3860
Official Rules / Re: Questions« on: May 04, 2020, 04:00:12 PM »How can I propose a new expansion? Both: fan and real. Official expansions are released by HiG but they don't accept any more ideas for Carcassonne. I the past you could submit ideas to them and they could used them or not. For fan expansions, you can submit you ideas in the Expansion Workshop board on CarcC. You can develop the idea on your own or ask for help or support from other members. They can help you develop the idea, collaborate with the graphics, editing the rules in the fan expansion format, proofreading the rules, play testing... whatever you need. You can see all the bubbling activity taking place currently at the workshop. http://www.carcassonnecentral.com/community/index.php?board=7.0 The only limit is your imagination and using graphics coming from Carcassonne tiles or created by you. If you need third party graphics you can use some copyleft graphics available on the internet that match the style of the edition. Keep always track of the source to ensure you have no copyright issues. Is this what you wanted to know? 3861
General / Re: Carcassonne as wall art« on: May 04, 2020, 03:19:45 PM »Thanks Meepledrone! We were debating to preserve the game and fill in the gaps with the “C” side of more coasters, maybe alternate with starter “C” and regular “C”....but making as many features fit as possible also may look better for the mural. You're welcome!!! I would leave it as is. It gives more the impression of a game. We made a time-lapse video of this which looks pretty cool, but not sure how to post a video. Maybe DanIsThirty can share my FB post later Cool! Why don't you upload it to youtube and link it from there? Also, have no fear DrMeeple! I have THOUSANDS of coasters left if you need to make some wall art of your own Hmmmm! It seems it could be a nice try to get a spare set and do something crazy... 3862

Official Rules / Controversial Interactions #01 - Watchtowers and meeples in castles« on: May 04, 2020, 11:15:56 AM »
Dear all,
This is a first installment of a series to discuss controversial interactions between expansions. Just wanted to show some cases I found in the darkest corners of the rules and start a discussion about how to address this situations. Normally these cases involve interactions with mini expansions not covered anywhere. The only interactions documented lately are included in the C2 major expansions and they don't cover interactions with mini expansions. Even Big Box 6 contains several mini expansions and omits some cases that a any player can come across. Moreover, the rules of the latest mini expansions contain the following paragraph (or a version of it) that makes us very happy every time a new mini expansion is released including it too: Quote This expansion has been developed for the Carcassonne basic game. All the basic game rules still apply in addition to the expansion rules below. You can combine it with other expansions - but at your own risk – that is, there will be no official rules for these combinations. All in all, we have no hints in the rules or official clarification for these cases so far. So I think it would be interesting to discuss them and share our opinions. Let me start this series covering the following topic... Controversial Interactions #01 - Watchtowers and meeples in castles As you may know, watchtowers score according to their type by taking into account features or meeples found on the watchtower tile and the tiles around it. I would like to discuss here the watchtowers with the following symbol: This watchtower type provides 2 points for each meeple in the neighboring tiles of the watchtower. But what happens with meeples in castles overlapping any of those tiles? So far I was following the basic rule applied for castles: since they are not placed on a particular tile, they are not considered for actions involving tiles: the dragon cannot eat any meeples in them, a tower cannot capture a meeple in them, they are not affected by the plague,... and so on and so forth. However, I was reviewing the interactions between the Big Top (Exp. 10 - Under the Big Top) and castles (Exp. 8 - Bridges, Castles & Bazaars) some weeks ago and found this: Quote If at least one tile forming a castle is adjacent to the Big Top, a meeple in that castle will score points when a circus is scored. My first though was: "Should a watchtower scoring per neighboring meeples consider those meeples placed in a castle? What do you think? Can we extend this interaction in Exp. 10 to watchtowers? Let me know your thoughts! Thanks! You can revisit the rules here: * Watchtower scoring: http://wikicarpedia.com/index.php/The_Watchtowers#3._Scoring_a_feature * Big top interactions (check Exp. 8 ): http://wikicarpedia.com/index.php/Under_the_Big_Top#Circus_tiles.2C_animal_tokens_and_the_big_top_2 3866

This is what we call the "Watchtowers disclaimer" that started it all:
* Rules with base game in mind only. * No additional clarifications after 2015. Who cannot love this? 3867

Thank you Murphy013!
I'm intrigued with their reaction. 3868

This is the result of a number of circumstances not covered in the rules (of course) but that may happen:
* You can place any meeple as an abbot on a special monastery * An abbot meeple is a meeple * An abbot meeple can be removed and scored Ergo, you should be able to remove an abbot meeple placed as an abbot on a special monastery. Lovely, isn't it? 3870

I don't know if HiG or Hobby World or both should be involved in this...
@aenima Sorry for this unpleasant surprise. |
