Title: GQ11
Post by: koolkat on November 29, 2008, 06:18:19 pm
I've just received the GQ11 tiles. I'll report as soon as I include them in gameplay. I think my favorites will be the spring with road (because it divides farms, the pig farm because it's my FFFF tile and the roundabout because it's my first 4-way road...

You mean the four roads split by a cloister :)

er ... that too. I haven't played with 'em yet. I thought there was also a roundabout. I'll check it out

There are no roundabouts in GQ11.  There is a 4-way roundabout in Catapult.

You're right. I think I'm starting to mix all expansions... Anyway the tiles on GQ11 seem to be interesting...

Oh and the pig tile is not a pig tile.  It's just a normal farm...

Heresy, I cry! That tile has got to be a pig farm!!! ;)

Seriously though, Novelty is correct, that tile is NOT a pig farm.

That would be a house-rule and one of the more common variants.

I hate to use house-rules, but I'll make an exception here... or not.

Well, HiG and RGG sometimes have different rules.

Witness
1. RGG's insistance to hold onto 1st Edition farm scoring rules while HiG was on 3rd edition for a long time.  RGG has since moved to 3rd edition.
2. The difference nuance between the Cathar tile and the Siege tiles regarding how you can escape from a Sieged city

I'm sure Matt could give more differences...

Well, I think the fact of two entities stating "different" rules is a proof that Carc is a game that make people discuss about it, and that's what makes it so much popular.
