I haven't been following this too closely, but after looking at Z-man's description it does look really awesome.

Reviews & Session Reports / Re: Ratings and Comments on Fan-Made Expansions
« on: September 20, 2013, 06:35:09 PM »
Since I was done going through fan-made expansions on CarcC,
I have now gone on to BGG.
(I will not go through CarcF since I don't know german).
But I don't find five that I have heard of:
-The Oracle
-Fairy Trader and Ferry Friend
-That here may be food in my house
-Dominions
-City on Fire

Anyone who knows where to find these ?

I haven't heard of any of them except That there may be food in my house- that was the original name for the revised Tithe Barns (latest version here: http://www.mediafire.com/download/o2oyb2j33g4fegw/ ), but since it was kind of long and people just referred to it as tithe barns so I changed it back.

But for some reason there are quite a few fan-made variants listed in the CAR.

I must admit I never understood the reasoning behind that...

Hope this helps..  :)

Man I would definitely bid but I know it will go waaay out of my price range before long... I also noticed corn circles has gone down in price. (If I had heaps more money and if HiG hadn't mentioned the eventual possibility of a re-release I would consider it).

Have you yourself received a copy, kettlefish? I'm sure we'd all agree you deserve it...

111
I'm still not sure whether to try and buy this- even if Cundco does publish them later, the tin box would be nice (I store all the tiles in the cardboard box and it is starting to weaken with the weight), as well as the spare tiles (I have very few).

What are the arrangements, if people don't mind me asking, for organising a deal with members from Germany to have the box shipped overseas?

- Cathars, Tunnel, Plague, and Little Buildings (exclusive to Spielbox)

Didn't RGG have an agreement with Spielbox at one point (just before they lost all Carcassonne rights)? I wonder why Z-man cannot get a similar agreement.

I decided not to travel and not to buy the tin box with the Belagerer, because one day we will get the 6 tiles at CundCo.

I thought that was unconfirmed?

113
What is the size of the tin? Is it the same size as the box for regular carcassonne?

114
I don't suppose there's a chance Muller will release it separately later? If not I suppose they're lucky I need spare tiles and wouldn't mind a second copy of the game...

That really is a bummer for you guys overseas. But maybe we Germans can arrange something for you (as long as you'd want to pay 24.99 Euro plus postage and packing)? I already got a request from someone to get him "Die Belagerer" and hope to hunt down another copy for him.

That would be awesome, but I'll have to see whether I can afford it atm...

115
Hmm... not happy.

Beginning to see Tobias' point

I must admit the whole 'exclusive expansion with the base game' thing is getting a bit annoying, but that said, as long as it is released separately I don't mind.

I remember all the various small expansions that were included with the base game, starting with River 1 and continuing with Wheel of Fortune (which you can not buy by itself), Crop circles 1 (which you can not buy by itself), The festival (which you can not buy by itself) and now some Katharer copy (which we might be able to buy by itself, if we are to trust everyone in this thread). I might even have forgotten some edition. There might also be edition of which I know nothing.

With Corn circles I think the point is that you could have bought it by itself (and correct me if I'm wrong, but weren't HiG happy to give it away for free for some postage money before it was available from Cundco?). As for the festival, it will be available from Cundco later this year. Belagerer will probably be available separately and the river was available separately for a while.

That only leaves Wheel of Fortune, (and while its possible to buy separately like I did) I am happy to pass that off as a semi-spinoff.

117
I suppose it is possible that Cundco is re-releasing the original Katharer and not the Belagerer, but I don't think it's likely

Firstly, do HiG even have the rights to reprint Die Katharer? If they do, why haven't they done it before? I know it was briefly available when Cundco opened, but the website said that it was some leftover 'old' stock and not a new printing (and was thus quickly sold out). I think this was also before the Nostheide shop opened to maybe Spielbox gave the supplies to HiG to sell?

Secondly, wouldn't it a bit of a coincidence for two different versions of essentially the same expansion to be released simultaneously from different mediums? Just because an employee said 'Die Katherer' would be released it doesn't exclusively mean the original version- after all 'The Siege' is also considered to be a re-release of 'Die Katherer'...

118
Looking forward to getting this from Cundco- I like the artwork (it's kind of a blend of Cathars and Siege).

But at the same time, just when you think you're catching up...

I can't wait to see what they come up with- plague is one of my favourites. And now I can save on shipping when I buy little buildings :)

Hmm, I shouldn't have waited so long to try to get Der Tunnel.  Anyone know a reasonable source?

I know the feeling... I'm still kicking myself over how cheaply I could have bought Corn circles from Cundco. I've been searching ebay for a couple of months and the cheapest I could find was AU$140.

There are a couple of copies of the tunnel on there (I think one was about $60), and ebay.de had an auction going on one for about 14 euros.
