Carcassonne Central

With the Ocean now fully released I thought I would release the first expansion.  There are 44 new tiles here, and two new types of chits.  This is a very complimentary expansion and completes my main vision for the Ocean.  Tell me what you think.  I suspect later I will do a mini CAR for the ocean, with everything included.  Also please let me know if I'm missing any needed tile configurations.  Thanks!

Here's the full download:

Some general comments:

1. The Carcassonne rules term for Chits is Token
2. There's an unanswered question in the last paragraph of Stranded Island
3. How can you have a road on the Ocean (Misc. Rules)?  Do you mean road on islands instead?  Also Misc is misspelt.
4. "Put it on its back." should be "Place it lying down"
5. Apostrophe missing in "feature's completion" - second to last sentence, paragraph 4 of Chateau D'If

Other than that, everything looks good.  I see you've taken the experience with the first Ocean rules and incorporated it into here!  Good job.

Ok here's an update to the rules.  I tweaked and added a few rules too.  Get it here:

There's still one "on its back" (Chateau D'If, 3rd paragraph, 2nd sentence).  That should be "lying down".  I would suggest making the next version 1.0 and I'll get it to public downloads as it otherwise looks great.  Keep up the good work.

Edit: What's next for oceans?

I got one more original expansion that will focus on the perils  and other phenomenon of the ocean itself.  Expect storms, maelstroms, sea monsters, mermaids, sirens, NPC pirates, and more.  My tentative name is "turbulent waters."  After that, some expansions based on existing expansions like:

-Buried Treasure (Treasure hunt for the ocean)
-Exotic trade goods (new trade resources for the ocean)
-Master and Commander / Pirate Lord (similar to king / robber baron)

Of course each will have an 'Ocean' twist.  I will also be trying to include existing features like the catapult fair on the newer tiles.  Don't expect such a quick turnaround on the next one though as I haven't started anything yet.  'Men of the Sea' was pretty much done the day I released Ocean 1.0.  Anyways, I'll try to put out Men of the Sea 1.0 some time tomorrow.  Thanks for the support!

Here is the 1.0 download with tiles and rules included:

Thanks for the final zipped document!  It's now available on the Public Downloads page.  Merit point given for this (and earlier for the Ocean tile montage used on the Public Downloads page).
