Title: Carcassonne Central Resources (aka What can you find on Carcassonne Central) Post by: Novelty on September 02, 2008, 12:09:18 pm Here's a list of some of the more interesting resources on Carcassonne Central that a gamer might be interested with:
1. Matt Harper's Completely Annotated Rules (CAR). The latest version as of 1st September 2008 is version 5.0 (pdf) (http://mjharper.macbay.de/CARnew.pdf). This document collects together all the rules of each and every expansion available and includes, via footnotes, clarifications by HiG or RGG where the rules are unclear. Discussion, suggestions and feedback may be provided at this forum thread (http://www.carcassonnecentral.com/forum/index.php?topic=38.0). 2. Scott's and Novelty's 100-point scoring thread. This is an image of the scoring track expanded to 100 spaces (instead of the original 50). The image is hosted on this site Downloads (http://www.carcassonnecentral.com/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=46&Itemid=59) section and may be downloaded as a pdf (http://www.carcassonnecentral.com/images/download/carc-scoring-track-final.jpg) or a png (large file) (http://www.carcassonnecentral.com/images/download/carc-scoring-track-final.png). 3. The guide (http://www.carcassonnecentral.com/forum/index.php?topic=400.0) to all the expansions, spin-offs and expansions to the spin-offs, and the reprints. This forum post will explain which expansion is an expansion compatible with the original game and which expansion is actually a spin-off, and thus not compatible with the original game. 4. Talk about the variants in the Variants Workshop (http://www.carcassonnecentral.com/forum/index.php?board=6.0). You can also create your own variants and get feedback about those variants. There's also a Variants Registry (http://www.carcassonnecentral.com/index.php?option=com_wrapper&Itemid=48) on the site. 5. Talk about upcoming releases. Start with the Upcoming releases (http://www.carcassonnecentral.com/forum/index.php?topic=299.0) post and navigate from there to the appropriate thread. 6. Download custom tiles (http://www.carcassonnecentral.com/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=46&Itemid=59). If you would like some custom tiles, but have no idea how to do them, you can request for custom tiles (http://www.carcassonnecentral.com/forum/index.php?topic=285.0).

Title: Re: Carcassonne Central Resources (aka What can you find on Carcassonne Central) Post by: Gantry on September 04, 2008, 12:55:44 am great list, i sent you a note about it in a pm... to let others in on the conversation, i'm thinking this would be great to mix with what I have on the CC home page.
Title: Re: Carcassonne Central Resources (aka What can you find on Carcassonne Central) Post by: Novelty on September 04, 2008, 01:07:11 am I dunno, I like the current home page as it is, short and simple. I think this might warrant a "Resources" tab or page on its own, and it'll probably need to be rewritten to make it less "forum style" and more "webpage style". And if that's being done, then it might be better to update item 3 to a webpage as well... just my thoughts...
