no... there is a black cat under the hut and the expansion simbol is mor down right

and it seems that the one who makes this tiles hasn't payed attention to the colours of the grass...
I try to adjust them! well we can't have the original ones but we can have them in funmade way and graphically more correct for our games!

How to categorise these promo tiles? Would they fall into La Porxada's category which is semi-official-too-rare-to-get-so-print-them-yourself kind of promo tiles? What do you guys think?

I would place them in one line with "Spiel'14" tile - can be received only under certain circumstances.

Of course you reveal some rare, obscure tiles the day after my Russian city arrives and I'm content with a complete collection.

I bought a decent porxada replca for fairly cheap. Do you think people will be printing/selling these in the same manner? I'd give it a go but don't have access to a colour printer.

I'd place them with La Porxada. Spiel 14 is both officially from Hans im Glück and an actual printed tile, these are from a distributor, are unprinted, and have no formal recognition from HiG.

These two also are actual printed tiles (unlike to La Porxada), and from official Carcassonne distributor, not some magazine or so. We don't know for sure about the last part (formal recognition), maybe they have it.

Indeed they are printed tiles, not only stickers on blank tiles.

...and I think they would deserve a BBG entry too.

BBG? You mean Board Game Geek, don't you?

Regardless, how "official" this tiles to be considerated, I think they look really, really great, especially the Baba Jaga hut. Although, the cartoonish stile does not actually fit to Carcassonne.

JT Atomico · « **Reply #24 on:** April 14, 2015, 01:22:44 PM »

Would anyone (kettlefish?) be able to ask HiG's opinion about how official these tiles are? And if there is ever any chance that they may be more readily available, say from Cundco.de?

Thanks for tracking these down! It's really cool to see the artwork and the rules. I don't think I care much for the house but I do really love the idea of adding a token where you pick which side you continue the road on. I may try to draw a similar tile on one of the blank tiles, just for my personal use.

JT Atomico · « **Reply #27 on:** April 21, 2015, 10:58:47 AM »

Does anybody have any leads on how to get these tiles in their official form? I can't find them on eBay or elsewhere.

Russian is my native language. What do you want to know?
In 2013 these tiles were given to every participant of the local tournament. In 2015 these tiles are prizes for the first 6 places of the tournament. Nowhere is mentioned about selling, so I assume they can't be obtained other way.
By the way, they play by 3 players at the table, except the final stage (QF, SF and F).

They are not currently available, so unless you've got a time machine and fancy travelling to play at a local Russian Tournament, you're out of luck - I'm doing some small batches of home-made tiles though if you view Dan's Giveaway post.

I think the rules about the Baba Yaga tile are quite strange...

If I understand this correctly, you lose your meeple for the rest of the game, unless you are willing to complete it for only 1 point.
Maximum score you can achieve is only 8 points, that's not really much for losing a meeple for the rest of a game. So, I would only place a meeple on it near the very end of the game...
