General / Re: I would like to make and print a couple custom tiles. Any help?
« on: May 01, 2021, 04:39:56 AM »
Yes for printing you can do it in word. You have to try to get the scale correctly. Maybe some test runs.
Check the download area for some examples in some fan made expansions. There are some, on mobile so cant find any quick.
merit from me to.

Yesterday I've played my two matches against Leven, gentleman's and ladies watch out for that man. 
)
The first round I was fighting to get ahold of stuff and was blocked off some meeples. Apparently I did not learned so much from my match against Decar, as I got blocked off again
In the end it was so bad that I had no more meeples to get unto a real fight. Well done Leven, it was a good match and you earned that one
107 points for you and 77 for me
The second match went a lot better for me, in the begin Leven placed a cloister (next to the start tile) and didn't tried to complete it as he was on some other projects busy and got a cloister sort of blocked and a city (where I scarified my cloister with meeple) to let it wait there and never return (7 tiles around) waiting to Leven would finish it but didn't. So I finally learned some things about blocking from the previous match with Decar and it worked out this match somehow.
I was somewhere in the middle of the game and busy with a big, big big city. Almost finished only one tile left and the Leven connects it to his one city tile thingy to enter my city. I was like that will not happen and got another small city tile waiting outside that city hub to enter it and claim it back as mine. Sadly I couldn't get the right pieces to connect and end, but Leven tried the same, he was able to connect it with the last fitting piece but let us wait in solidarity outside the big city walls to never enter the city again. 
I still don't get it, but it shall have something to do with points or something or any strategic genius master plan.
Although I had more meeples free and a lot of small city tiles drawn, I got lucky with some small cities to finish while Leven tried somethings to block it and I got all the good tiles to finish them I managed to score some big points on that and acquired a smallish farm (the biggest of our game) of 4 (was it 4 or 5, well doesn't matter) cities. Next to the border of that I used 3 the same cities for another farm which I place brilliantly I think. Although I lost that biggest farm to Leven who got in the last turn the ffrr tile to get a second meeple on that field.
Man that was a good game I really thought to lose in the start, middle and in the end I switched from thoughts and believed I could win it and I did.
I got a 86 points out of it and Leven 78. A small different, but I'm happy and what a good game it was
Thanks for the games Leven, it was great to play against you and learning from your playing style which is quite different from mine)
This ends for a 1 vs 1 win for me against Leven
ps. I forgot to take a screenshot of the field sorry
is there anyway to see them back? couldn't find them

General / Re: Call for advice on building a visually consistent C1 collection from scratch
« on: April 18, 2021, 02:24:32 AM »Thanks for the help everyone.
I think the general advice to 'not worry about it' and enjoy building up the set we like to play is very sound.If you want to keep your C1 greens aligned, please have a look at the following topic, where DrMeeple discusses the C1 expansions sharing similar shades of green...
http://www.carcassonnecentral.com/community/index.php?topic=4391.msg64806#msg64806
Have fun and good luck in your quest!
Thanks Meepledrone (and DrMeeple!) for the link, that is very useful. I am getting better with the searching tools on here but there is a lot to look through. I can see I have asked a bunch of questions that have probably been comprehensively addressed elsewhere and I know that can be irritating in a forum.
Is there a way to bookmark a forum post or page so I can find it easily again in the future? I haven't managed to work that out yet.Hi Will! if you are patient and wait let's say... about a month from now, maybe a little less, all will be clear nd your questions will be answered.
Just keep an eye on the forum around early May.
Intriguing! In theory I could buy a lot of Carcassonne between now and early May but I have learnt my lesson and will try to hold off...
Thanks all
Yes you can bookmark it inside of your browser, click on favorite, put it in some directory, or maybe a second directory inside
I've got to many

« on: April 13, 2021, 12:30:55 PM »Thanks for the games Sinscerly!Haha, yes. I wasn't really paying attention to those trapping tiles. Didn't played a match as long as this before (
Decar (119) Sinscerly (92)
You were pretty unfortunate to get two meeple trapped during the first game, so quickly.
I think you were unfortunate to point you CCRR tile towards your smaller city.
I also managed to secure they large city in the centre of the board too. I decided to play that relatively safe but I could have finished it several terms earlier. I really expected you to make me pay for that, but I guess you didnt want to lose another meeple in that city too! I managed to block your attempt on the RHS too. But did leave a very nice city for you to snatch on the left. You had some interesting farming opportunities near the end of the game too, but they were all for pretty small farms, and you didn't manage to get the tiles you needed to glom on. The farm on the lower left was unfortunate because I originally played it thinking to join the farmer you played.
maybe more focus on long playing matches :p)I wasn't able to get just the correct tiles for a good block or reëntry in that city sadly
Decar (97) Sinscerly (86)That was me one of a game, liked it very much and my sense for blocking came into it when you trapped 2 meeples of me again
This was a pretty weird game. The FFFR cloisters came out early, so there was plenty of extra trapping opportunity. I managed to get 2 of your meeple trapped again ;( Followed by a 3rd (I'll be honest I I missed that both cloisters had been played).
I was pretty lazy with some of my thieves, and basically trapped one of my own when I played the that FFFC tile. You were quick to make sure it wasn't coming back
I threatened you central farm quite well, but you managed to prevent it, and glom onto one of them just to make sure it would be even, at best.
Unfortunately, those two extra meeple were put to good use between the city splitter farm on the bottom left. I think you were unfortunate to not glom on.
But you did well to stop that other road from being worth anything significant - the CCCR tile it needed was your last move
Two enjoyable games. Thanks for taking the time!
Thanks for the games Decar!
