I just got The Catapult, Cult, King and Scout and I'm still waiting for GQ11. I can hardly wait to try these. But unfortunately my wife is still with influenza and I can't get no one else to play with me. Too pity.

Just launch the meep anyway. It will feel good and, if you really think about it, the meep deserves it. On the same note, launch the dragon too - I hate that punk! (mostly because my girlfriend always gets it and kills my farmers...ARGH!!!).

Thanks Whale. The Dragon is one of my favorites but my wife says I'm too mean and doesn't like it at all.

You can always play with yourself  Solitaire catapult! Or find a gaming group close to you. |

So since this is in the sessions forum, are you going to post a report about your solitaire catapult session? Otherwise, this thread really needs to go to General instead of staying in Sessions.

I think I already did it. Anyway...
I played a few times both Solitaire Carcassonne. That is:
1) With all base set trying to make a 8x9 board, pulling out tiles from the Carc bag following BGG rules. My best (actually I just played a couple of times) is five points (five tiles that could not be inserted on the 8x9 board). I think it's a nice variant and helps us think about what tiles are still to come out. Though strategy is different from normal game it's still good for your mind gymnastics. The final board looks nice because it's squared filled with closed cities and we only may have a few gaps because of the tiles that we didn't manage to fill into.
2) The other variants (23+23+23+start tile and 20+20+20+11+start tile) is also great, because it's fast and makes us think a lot about how to use the 4 meeples (in this solitaire we only have 4 meeples). It's great becaus we need only a little space to play on, we still score points and strategy is different again from the normal and the other solitaire version. A score under 60 points for the 20's and 23's partial games and a score under 40 for the 11 partial game would be something to forget.
I think this is a nice solution for when we're all by ourselves or even to compete against some other players.
Did someone tried these versions yet? How was it?

Oh, boy! I blew it again! No, just the base set. This should be in another topic. I'm so sorry...

No worries. You can always remove your own posts by clicking the remove button above. I'll wait to see your sessions report with the catapult.

On your posts, look to the top right. There should be "Quote" and "Modify" and then "Remove"

Answered you in the other thread.
Anyways, back to the topic, so, how was your solitaire game with Catapult?
