Many ways to use a cxxx tile

<< < (2/3) > >>

Decar:
Or perhaps tile is put to better use trapping an opponents meeple and denying them a lot more points.

Vinçon:
And I thought I knew a lot about the game... So much to learn!

And thanks farin for this awesome program. I'm using it a little bit to test it, but (and that's absolutely personal) I really prefer the warmth of a IRL game of Carcassone.

Awesome work anyway!

Other strategic advantages of completing the opponent's city can be due to the mechanics of the Count and the City of Carcassonne. Maybe you want to send a follower to that city, or prevent the opponent from doing so, or be the one to move the Count in order to enable or disrupt a pending "big drop" that looks like it's coming.

You might also complete the opponent's little hamlet to purposely limit her to 4 points when she was hoping to build something bigger. In cases like this, I feel like 4 points is actually better for the game because it can give that decision a little more weight.

Also for me the most basic is if you're playing Traders & Builders and with that tile you can finish a city before someone else and steal all of the resources!!!

Vinçon:
Will buy this expansion next month. Seems like a lot of fun.
