Day 2: too much works at the restaurant...

Day 3:

The barbarians and Pied Piper have come in play, but the rules are a little complex now, so I will try it on an another game, just use the tiles.
One dragon have been killed by a king's knight
The Bog lord stay quiet in the marshes
4 Cathar castles and the Masada fortresss (desert) are under siege
Kettefish's winter mine is still producing

The game begins to take a look  :black1-meeple:

Day 4:

Feature:

I like the fortune teller expansion, you pick up 2 or 3 tiles, and choose the best for you, combined with the builder or the phantom, you can have two nice tiles to play.  :black1-meeple:

This may seem picky (given the scale of what you're doing) but it's to do with the original Coast/Sea/Lake you have (not the winter one).

There's a black (?) monk sitting on the cloister (which has the straight coast and bridge to it) (on Day7). In the rules I state that once all the land-based tiles around it are placed, it can be considered complete. You don't score for the plain sea spaces, or empty ones. Of course, if you have an island tile somewhere in your remaining tile bags waiting to be drawn, it would be valid for it to still be there (and forgive my intervention).
AutumnForest (C2), Catch Of The Day (C1/2/WD), Cliffs&W'falls (C1/2), Coast (C1/2), FishHuts (C2), Fluvium (C2), NewForest (C2), Harvest (C1/2), Stone Circles (C1/2), Wells (C2), Jordan River 2 (AotC), River I/II (GR)
Devt: Sakura (C2), WinterEdge (C1), WinterCoast (WD/WE) and others

Feature:

One newborn dragon and one killed by a knight
The winter big lake added to the game
One big city's completed in the SE desert
The red flags are using for the hill rather than two tiles

And there's still a lot to play in the bags.  :black1-meeple:

Using only one bag now, it's looking my floor begins to be smaller than I was think. It's not easy to put tiles in the center of teh game  ;D  :black1-meeple:

Day 25

I'll probably use only 75% of my tiles, about 3000 will be in play soon.

Average of 2000 points per player with 25 points max for the city, the road (king and scout), also 25 for the cloister, on 64x56 tiles games, too much points for it.
