Title: Celebrating King Charles III with a game of Carcassonne
Post by: carca82 on September 08, 2022, 12:07:04 PM

I'm proposing a quick "real time" event to celebrate the coronation of King Charles III. Your mission - should you choose to accept it - is to play a game of Carcassone, strictly following these simple rules:

• Take any 72-tiles, base version of the game, and remove two random tiles, without looking at them. The 70 remaining tiles will symbolize the 70 years of reign of Elizabeth II.
• Add the whole "The Princess & the Dragon" content in. Why? It's the 3rd main expansion, and we're celebrating Charles III!
• Add the 2 King & Robber tiles and markers (just the two special tiles and related rules, no other content)
• You must provide a picture of the final map, and your scoring

Let's play!

There's plenty of time to plan for this game though, the coronation won't happen for many months.  IIRC QEII's coronation was 18 months after her accession.

Coronation, proclamation... that wasn't the most important thing, it was just an excuse to all play the same game "all together"
