Joff - the colored disks look a lot like the ones from Ticket to Ride  I feel kinda bad mentioning a non carc game, though it is a fun game.

Actually, yes they are in Ticket To Ride, but my set was a bag with 12 different colours in.

Naw, don't, there are a lot of excellent games out there, and Carc can make good use of some of their parts & concepts for expansions

Welp, that is next on my list of items to buy. I guess I will be adding a third Plano tackle box to my game collection (Catan requires TWO!). If I get Agricola for Christmas and buy the Animeeples before I return to the UK, I may have to get two more tackle boxes. Sheesh, that may get a little heavy, though.

Here's what I use for King & Robber.
Scotty, would you mind if I made that as a public download on this site?

Novelty that would be great, easyier for people to find.
I'm not sure who made it.  I found it on BGG (I think) a while ago. 
Makes it alot better to keep track during the game instead of trying to cout it all at the end.

Hmm.... if you didn't make it then I'd have to hunt for the original maker to make it available on the downloads page.  Maybe someone could make a version so that we can host it here or something Smiley

I have downloaded the 100 Point Scoring Track & 500 Point Extension, put them together, and had them laminated. I was planning on purchasing one extra Meeple in all six base colors (as markers on the extension) as well as one brown and one purple Meeple to use on the scoring track to indicate the longest road and city.

However, I was in Hobby Lobby the other day and saw that they sell 1/2" unpainted cubes (fourteen cubes in a plastic bag for $1.47). I decided to get those instead and, using paint I already had, painted up two cubes in each of the base colors and one each of brown and purple.

An inexpensive alternative** to buying the Meeples.

**as long as you have paint and don't mind investing the time/effort.

Heres a better one.  I use 4 brown and 4 white meeples as the markers.  Brown for the cities and white for the roads.
