Author Topic: New Mini and Ukraine Promo tile announced for Essen and subsequent Cundco (Read 9921 times)

Today, new items were added to the Cundco Autumn 2022 section!

A new Mini expansion, called The Bets has been announced:

According to Cundco: "With this mini-expansion you place bets on how many tiles a road or a city will consist of upon completion. Influence these areas in your favor and get the extra points."

And a special Ukraine Promo 2022 tile as well!

Proceeds from this tile will go to the charity of Ukraine. The tile does not come with additional rules, but it can be used as an Inn when using I&C, and/or as (shield) Crop Circle when using the Crop Circles.

I think that The Bets is awesome, but I am not a fan of this promo tile.

Do you think they'll make these broadly available or will they print them in 18 copies (for the joy of eBay scalpers?)

The Bets is very likely to be just like every other mini expansion, so with a very wide availability.

The Ukraine Promo is said (on the Cundco listing) to be in limited quantity, available at Essen and the rest on Cundco. I expect them to be similar in availability as the Spiel tiles usually are.

Early thoughts:
The Bets expansion sounds really cumbersome and I can already picture the cans of worms it will open.

The Ukraine promo tile is beautiful and the two rules are great!

Let's wish that The Bets will not have hard to guess inter-expansions interactions.

From what I can gather from the shop page, you're placing bets on what a feature will be worth when completed, so I think the interactions should be not terrible.

Are you sure? What about interaction with Ferries? That has potential to be very annoying.

Fair point, so not playing with the Ferries would be the plan. There are many other expansions it can be paired with.

I don't suppose any fellow Aussies are going to Essen and would be able to grab a UKR one for me? I've got the worst cundco luck! emoji code1783]

When you are logged in at Cundco.

It says: Dieser Artikel erscheint am 14 Oktober.

The Carcassonne - Ukraine-Plättchen will be available at 14th Oktober just like the Ukraine maps.
