I think there's an official milk sachet expansion too.... although his signature might have rubbed off by now.

It's still official!

One new addition to my collection... It looks brand new!

No doubt I'll add Siege to The Besiegers and The Cathars to my Mega Carcassonne!
Still unsure if this version of The Cult, with 1 extra tile, shall replace the classic version from expension 6...

Very nice! You've been finding some great things to add to your collection!

Very few things are left to find... Things are not easy now

What's left on your wish list?

I think most things are currently on their way now, the only thing I still shall find are the 4 Russian tiles... But the few ones I found are just out of reach regarding the price up to now. I may have found 2 of them but it's still in a discussion.

After that, I'll just have a few print and play expansion to prepare (I'll have to find a way to make them properly, I'm not a fan of the result I have with Cutcassonne up to now).
I'll probably include La Porxada as a print and play, since the original stickers probably can't be found any more.

I'm actually not a real completist, I mean I don't need a c1 + c2 + c3 copy of each item, a single copy is enough for me. My target is to add some expansion to my game every now and then so we have some new rules to play, new challenges and new tactics and strategies to play. I'm not building an actual collection of all Carcassonne item

Also, I'm currently focusing to the classic Carcassonne, not the spin off, and only official / semi official item, I'm not into fan expansion

Not yet....

Be careful not to look too deep into the Carcassonne rabbit hole

I almost forgot to post this one, which arrived yesterday!

For winning the CarcassonneCentral advent puzzle on Facebook, Scott was so kind to put together this package!

Can't wait to try these out in a game!

what is this box?

Carcassonne - Kreivi ja Kuningas (English: The Count & the King) is a compilation of three small expansions — The River II, The Count of Carcassonne and King & Scout.

It was packaged in a standard-size Carcassonne expansion box and only released in Finland.
It is a precursor to Hans im Glück's expansion Count, King & Consort which used the same compilation components but also including a new expansion, The Cult, and removed the Scout since that expands Carcassonne: Hunters & Gatherers.

This "Kreivi ja Kuningas" should be added at https://wikicarpedia.com/car/Collections_and_Expansions and https://wikicarpedia.com/car/Variants.

Willem · « **Reply #3807 on:** February 02, 2024, 09:25:39 AM »

it is included in the Collections & Expansions page.
Currently listed as the 1st printing of Count, King & Robber expansion in Finnish.

Unfortunately, it's not as straightforward as that, as Linksux menitoned;
This box was released in Finland only, before the Count,King&Robber expansion was a thing in Germany or any other markets. I don't know if Lautapelit knew of Exp. 6, but here we go.
As it was released there before Abbey&the Mayor, it is even marked on the box as Exp 5.
Due to this, Abbey&Mayor in Finnish was numbered as 6 (and they've retained this in the C2 re-releases).

Kreivi ja Kuningas doesn't include the Cult, but does have the Scout tiles.

We can add a footnote for the C&E page, and i'll look to see if i can write up a good additional entry for the Variants page. Probably will add it under the "Limited Editions" header, as there doesn't seem to be a better header for it atm

(Bonus fun fact; as C1 Count,King & Robber was not released in Sweden, the Catapult was numbered as expansion 6. They did number B,C&B as nr 8 though)
